Steel ladles play a crucial role in the steelmaking process, transporting molten steel between different stages of production, but high heat losses in every stage of the production can affect quality and increase energy costs. Promat Microporous insulation have extremely low thermal conductivity, making them highly effective in minimizing heat losses, preventing steel temperature drops, boosting energy efficiency, and extending ladle lifespan by reducing outer shell temperatures. This ensures consistent steel quality and reduces operational costs, enhancing overall production efficiency.

Steelmaking demands advanced thermal insulation to enhance efficiency, cut energy costs, and reduce environmental impact. High-quality insulation minimizes heat loss in processes over 1600°C, optimizing energy use and ensuring reliable output. Promat’s high-performing microporous and vermiculite backup lining materials offer effective solutions for energy savings in extreme temperatures, supporting a more efficient steelmaking process.

In 2025, Promat reached a major sustainability milestone: it has now achieved 100% renewable electricity supply across all 12 of its manufacturing sites in Europe, the USA, the UAE, and Japan.

At Doorveen, we specialize in the safe storage of hazardous products, with a strong focus on Lithium-ion battery storage in the recycling industry. As safety regulations in the Netherlands and abroad have evolved, ensuring compliance with fire resistance standards has become a key priority for our team. Promat's passive fire protection materials have been instrumental in helping us meet these requirements efficiently.

InterDam is a major supplier of blast and passive fire protection products for the global industry, principally walls, doors and window systems. InterDam has experience of providing products in fire resistant classes according to international tunnel Standards RWS / HCM / ISO 834. InterDam is well versed in the key difference between tunnel doors and most other types of fire resistant doors: Tunnel doors are escape doors and are only used in case of an emergency. Rigorous testing, use of the best materials, proper dimensioning of all materials and regular maintenance assures the door functions as specified. Get the people to safety and keep the fire out. Always. Guaranteed.
