SHHW Insulation Engineering Technology Corporation is committed to the R&D and manufacturing of LNG ship and pipeline insulation systems.
The company has won ISO9001 quality system certification, ISO14001 environmental system certification, OHSAS18001 occupational safety and health system certificate, French Bureau Veritas factory approval and type approval certificate and other qualifications and honors.
The company's main customers are concentrated in China's large shipyards and internationally renowned companies such as Wärtsilä. The thermal insulation system projects cover the largest LNG ship in China, all the largest VLGC ships in China so far, and Wärtsilä's module thermal insulation business in China, and the construction area of liquid tank thermal insulation. More than 800,000 square meters, and the pipeline insulation construction length exceeds 150,000 meters.
SHHW and BASF jointly developed low-temperature thermal insulation material systems, and participated in a number of major scientific research and production projects established by the state.
The company has obtained a number of patents and products with independent intellectual property rights. The company has innovative capabilities and proven products in the low temperature insulation market.
Polyurethane foam is a new type of environmentally friendly polyurethane foam system that is CFC/HCFC free and ozone depleting substance free (zero ODP).
It adopts a unique box-type foaming process to foam and form. The produced polyurethane foam has high strength, good thermal insulation performance, and excellent performance in cryogenic and ultra-low temperature environments.
The polyurethane foam has been tested by an authoritative third-party laboratory, and has excellent performance, fully meeting the requirements of cryogenic cold preservation, with a working temperature range of -196 ~ +80 °C, suitable for liquefied natural gas (LNG), liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), liquefied ethylene gas ( LEG) and liquid nitrogen (LN2) pipeline cooling.
On April 14, 2022, SHHW developed a low-temperature thermal insulation system using BASF's Elastopor® Cryo solution, which has been successfully applied to the first very large liquefied ethane carrier (VLEC) and delivered to one of China's leading shipbuilding companies. JN Shipbuilding (Group) Co., Ltd. The excellent durability of Elastopor ensures that the vessel remains insulated under the harsh conditions at sea. Therefore, liquid cargo can be kept in a certain low temperature state during transportation.
In 2019, BASF and SHHW signed a strategic cooperation agreement to jointly develop polyurethane (PU) thermal insulation solutions for the low temperature industry and shipbuilding industry in China.
According to the agreement, SHHW will use BASF products (Elastopir®, Elastopor, Elastospray®, Elastocoat®) in the cargo tanks, fuel tanks and Pipelines, offshore projects and LNG terminal projects.
