Polyurethane Systems for Refrigerator
and Water Heater Insulation

Refrigerator polyurethane systems are two-component rigid systems, a polyol blend and an isocyanate, that are injected into the cavity, expand and cure into rigid insulating foam. We also have systems for industrial coolers, water heaters, hot-water tanks and solar collectors. We formulate all of them in Bursa, Türkiye, and adapt each one to your product and your line.

Technical overview

How polyurethane systems insulate refrigerators, coolers and water heaters

In a refrigerator or an industrial cooler, the insulation is foamed in place. The two components of a rigid polyurethane system, a polyol blend and an isocyanate, are mixed and injected into the cavity between the inner and outer walls, where the foam expands, flows through the space and cures into rigid insulating foam that also bonds the walls together. Our refrigerator systems were developed first for this job. They bond well to the facings and fill the cavity evenly, without voids, at insulation thicknesses from 4 to 20 cm. That matters, because a void left in the wall is a gap in the insulation.

The same refrigerator systems are also used to make cold room and truck-body panels, and our cold-room panel systems are in turn used in industrial coolers and refrigerators. For solar collectors and hot-water tanks, including water-heater tanks, we have separate polyurethane systems. Across all of these insulation systems, the blowing agents are ozone-friendly, from the n-pentane, HFC and HFO families, and none contain HCFC-141b. We agree the blowing agent with you so that it suits your plant's equipment and the regulations in your market.

Choosing a polyurethane system for refrigerator or water-heater insulation starts from your appliance and your line, not from a catalogue. For appliances, the cavity shape and the way the foam is injected or poured decide the choice. From there we adapt one of our own formulations to your product and your line, drawing on more than 700 existing formulations. If your process uses moulds that need a release agent, we make our own, water-based and solvent-based. For suitable projects, our technical team can visit your line and run production trials with you.
