AS POWERFUL AS THE PEOPLE
An overview of the product lines
A company and its products are as powerful as the people
behind it. With conviction and also with unusual ideas if required.
This is how we work. As developers, producers, problem solvers
and service providers in one. Our most important goal is to find
efficient solutions for the most diverse demands. Which is why we
also conduct intensive product development – in cooperation with
our customer. This ensures that our products are perfect. Also
in terms of environmental protection. We have already reached a
TROCELLEN CLASSIC
very high standard, because sustainability and the protection of
our environment are firmly anchored in our corporate philosophy.
The environmental aspects are considered in every management
decision, in all functions and on all process levels. For years, we
have been working on avoiding environmental burdens and aim to
reintroduce all raw materials used into the recycling loop in a sensible
and energy-efficient manner. For us, this is part of innovative
product development.
For a better overview, we have divided our very diverse products
into three groups, based on the production method.
TROCELLEN ® classic, our core product line, consists of horizontally foamed XLPO material manu–
factured in rolls or sheets. Since 1972 these foams are regarded as an industry standard based on
their proven application performance. Within this product line we produce two foam variations that
differ in cross-linking technique:
Chemically crosslinked foams (C-foams) are characterized by their very abrasion resistant surface
and excellent thermomouldability, which makes them suitable for very technical applications.
Physically crosslinked foams (P-foams). Due to the physical cross-linking process our p-foams show
very specific properties, differing from c-foams especially in surface and cell structure, but also in
other values like thermal properties, tensile strength, compression set, shrinkage or fogging values.
TROCELLEN ® classic rolls and sheets are typically offered in densities between 25kg/m 3 and
250kg/m 3. The thickness varies between 2 mm and 20 mm. We developed a wide range of foam
modifications which can be characterized by certain specific properties, e.g.: Fire resistance, Temperature
resistance, Softness, Hardness (Rigidity).
TROCELLEN VERTICAL
These physically cross-linked polyolefin foams offer massive potential for a wide range of applications,
where very thin foams with a smooth surface and a fine cell structure are required.
TROCELLEN ® vertical is produced in thicknesses between 0.5 and 6mm and in densities varying from
25 to 180kg/m 3.
Crosslinking by irradiation and vertical foaming technology also permits the incorporation of polypropylene
(PP) as a base resin for foam production. Foams manufactured from PP show a higher
temperature resistance.
TROCELLEN BLOC
Our product line TROCELLEN ® bloc offers chemically cross-linked blockfoams manufactured by
using a discontinuous foaming process. These foams can be produced in higher thicknesses and
show a very smooth cell structure after removing the skin.
TROCELLEN ® bloc is manufactured in densities of 25, 30, 45 and 100kg/m 3. Low densities are originally
produced in 100mm thickness, while our high density foam is produced in 40mm thickness.
All products can be splitted to obtain thin layers, starting from 5mm upwards.

BUSINESS UNIT »INSULATION«
The mission of the BU Insulation is to support the needs of the
customers operating in the thermal insulation market segment,
by technologically innovated products and solutions, easy to use,
safe from the toxicological point of view and with a low thermal
conductivity.
TROCELLEN ® chemically cross-linked, closed cell, PE foams perfectly
satisfy these simple base requirements. TROCELLEN ® is
practically a waterproof material, able to keep the insulation premises
even when exposed to high values of air humidity, which is
difficult for other insulating products. TROCELLEN ® is environmentally
friendly. The correct thermal insulation of the buildings,
air ducting and pipes, reduces the consumption of the energy.
The customer can face new applications, safe in the knowledge
that they will be supported by a Company able to transfer its knowhow
into economically favourable solutions.
The BU-Insulation is able to find solutions to the many norms and
certifications. This is due to a strong relationship between the
R&D activity, which lives the market and the customer, and the
Application Engineers.
TROCELLEN ® has not only the experience in foam production, but
also in the manufacture of finished products:
• Sleeves made by X-linked PE foam/Aluminium and high thickness
pipes for heating equipment.
• Pre-insulated copper pipes for air conditioning.
• Adhesive PE foam rolls for air ducting or industrial installations.
AIR DUCTING
The properties of TROCELLEN ® products for this application are
related to its very low vapour transmission. Together with its interesting
thermal resistance value, they are able to ensure high
and long lasting thermal insulation and an efficient condensation
treatment. For this reason, TROCELLEN ® is used for covering the
best performing air ducting installations in this sector.
The good stiffness and mechanical resistance of the cross-linked
polyethylene ensures the consistency of the thicknesses at
the edges even after mounting, and has abrasion resistance properties.
The great versatility and the conversion with a variety of finishes
completes the product range raising both mechanical properties
and the application functionality (fire reaction, clean ability, anti
scratch).
SLEEVES
The thermal insulation for technical installations is guided by the
national laws of energy saving. It is the reference parameter on
General characteristics of TROCELLEN for Insulation applications
Foam:
• lightweight
• flexible – easy to handle
• thermal insulation
Polyolefin:
• very resistant to chemical
attack
• impermeable to water
• recyclable
• vapour barrier
which TROCELLEN ® developed these products. Sleeves made by
TROCELLEN ® give consistent, high technical characteristics and a
very nice visual aspect. The diameters and the production thicknesses
are based on the technical requirement, and the long-lasting
property of the product ensures a long service life.
HIGH THICKNESS PIPE INSULATION
Producers of insulating systems that have been overtaken TRO-
CELLEN ® in the past produced high thickness pipe insulation by
injecting PU semi-rigid foam into two sleeves of polyethylene.
Meanwhile TROCELLEN ® started various development projects to
transfer these products into PE based insulation materials. First
types were made by automatically bending stripes into pipes with
a welding line.
Thanks to the collaboration with our shareholder Furukawa we developed
a special equipment to produce higher thicknesses and
diameters of pipe insulation. To complete the product range our
partners prepared the necessary accessories like bends and T-pieces.The
products are available under the trade name »ISO-COM-
PACT«.
Cross-linked:
• better mechanical
performances
• better thermal resistance
• CFC free
Closed Cells:
• low water absorption even
at the lowest basic weight
• resists growth of fungi
• fibre free
• absorbs impact sound
TECHNICAL EQUIPMENT INSULATION
TROCELLEN ® has been used for many years to insulate technical
equipment. Properties like e.g. reduction of condensation, ageing
resistance and the absence of fibres guarantee the excellent performance.
PRE-INSULATED COPPER PIPES
The piping for the thermal fluid distribution of boilers, heating
pumps and inverters need an effective thermal insulation which
avoids as much as possible the energy dispersion and ensures the
efficiency of the plant.
Once the insulation material is defined, the main difficulty is the
installation, moreover if the insulating sleeve must be threaded on
a small diameter like the copper pipe one. In order to avoid this
problem directly at the source, TROCELLEN ® produces industrially
pre-insulated copper pipes.
The installer only has to take care of the connection quality of the
single pieces and the insulation of the connection areas.
ACCESSORIES
The positioning of a thermal system is efficient only even if the
finishing is done professionally.
It is, for example, the case of the various joints and connections
of a technical plant, which must be insulated at least at the same
quality level as the rest of the plant.
TROCELLEN ® has developed a set of accessories, completed by
strips, tapes, bands, die-cut and thermo-formed pieces, which ensures
the best possible solution.
