Vacuum Insulated Panels for High-Performance Insulation
American Aerogel, Rochester, N.Y., developed Aerocore vacuum insulated panels (VIPs), which are high-performance insulation that possesses the highest commercially available R-Value (R50 per inch) and prevents different types of heat transfer.
Originally developed for shipping sensitive biopharmaceuticals, Aerocore VIPs have been implemented and tested in insulated trailers. Increase in insulation performance means less fuel, less maintenance, increased longevity and increased internal height, width and length.
