Introducing InsulTech Chapel

From the depths of the Covid 19 pandemic emerged a realization that would change InsulTech forever: faith and work are not meant to be separated. In 2021, InsulTech invited a former US Army chaplain and pastor/therapist to lead our company in a weekly Christian chapel service. It started as a way to help get through a tough time, and it was and will always be optional, but what has emerged from this is something special that positively affects many aspects of InsulTech’s business.

Through open, transparent conversation,  the company has been challenged to raise its game in many areas — in how we communicate, how we work together, and how we take responsibility when things go wrong.  We seek to conduct business without hypocrisy, in a way that is upright, open and honest. We actively seek to make a positive impact through all the relationships that develop in the course of business. We pray for the physical and spiritual wellbeing of those whose lives we have the honor of sharing — and we have seen God do great things!

InsulTech is not a perfect company, and we are not perfect people, but we seek something better than the temporary success that this world offers. Our theme scriptures for 2024 are:

Matthew 7:12
So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.

Proverbs 27:17
As iron sharpens iron,
so one person sharpens another.

Project Spotlight: Marine Carbon Capture

InsulTech is extremely proud for the opportunity to support emissions reduction in marine applications. These green-energy powered systems capture and filter exhaust from container ships, tankers and auto carriers, removing 99% of diesel particulate matter and 95% of nitrogen oxide. It then releases pollution-stripped gas that’s a mixture that includes CO2 and water vapor.

This incredible technology has the potential to drastically improve air quality in port areas, and mitigate the impact of the shipping industry, one of the world’s most significant contributors of pollutants and other harmful emissions. Tiny air pollution particles released from ships can get deep in lungs and blood when breathed in. This can lead to early death, more hospital stays for heart and lung problems, and asthma attacks. Kids, older folks, and those with heart or lung problems are at greater risk. Worse, these risks hit some communities harder. Areas near ports, often home to lower-income families and minorities, already face many pollution sources, hurting their health even more.

InsulTech designs, manufactures and installs sewn fabric insulation blankets for this vital application and we are thankful for the opportunity to be involved with this impressive innovation.  Learn more.

Service Spotlight: Mobile Production

To support our customers’ time sensitive commissioning and test requirements,  InsulTech offers  mobile production services.  This service, operated by InsulTech Field Engineers and Installation technicians, allows for rapid modification of factory produced insulation blanket products.

Originally developed to aid marine engine OEMs overcome the challenges of International Marine Organization (IMO) Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) testing, InsulTech’s mobile production has become an integral part of many complex projects — from reciprocating engine sites, to turbomachinery applications to oil and gas and petrochemical plants.
