Product benefits

Kaiflex ST closed-cell synthetic rubber insulation is universally applicable. It can be used for hot and cold pipes, in any system size and with different pipe diameters, in small heating plants and large projects. Thanks to the wide range of products and the right options, such as Kaiflex ST tape and Kaiflex RT-ST pipe supports, the material can be used in applications of any size without changing the material or manufacturer. All this has made Kaiflex ST the Kaimann standard in technical insulation.

Kaiflex ST is used in refrigeration and air conditioning systems for insulating pipes and ducts in heavily frequented public and commercial buildings such as airports, large office complexes, hotels, and apartment buildings, as well as in industrial facilities and ships. Thanks to its antimicrobial and fiber-free structure, the material meets high hygiene requirements and is particularly suitable for insulation in healthcare facilities such as hospitals.

Tested and certified – excellent technical values

Extensively tested and internationally certified, Kaiflex ST offers broad usability and technical characteristics of the highest standard. Thanks to its very low thermal conductivity of up to λ ≤0.033 W/(m·K) at 0 °C and excellent resistance to water vapor diffusion of up to μ ≥ 10,000, this Kaimann insulation is very energy efficient and reliably prevents condensation. In Euroclass B/BL-s3, d0 (DIN EN 13501-1), Class O (according to UK building regulations) and Class 1 very low surface flame spread (tested according to BS 476-7), this elastomeric insulation also meets the highest safety requirements related to fire behavior.

The excellent technical characteristics remain consistently high across all insulation thicknesses and guarantee reliable performance throughout the entire operational life of the system. Even with low insulation thickness, this proven material provides long-term protection against energy losses, acts as an effective water vapor barrier, and therefore minimizes the risk of corrosion under insulation.

The material is available in sheets, as a standard product or self-adhesive. Whichever version you choose, its flexible installation makes Kaiflex ST a winner.

Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) make the ecological assessment of Kaimann insulation materials even more transparent. In this way, the company assists in the planning and certification of sustainable buildings.

Product Highlights

Pictogram, Water Diffusion

Effective barrier against condensation.

The presence of mold compromises indoor air quality. Kaiflex is naturally resistant to fungal growth, prevents moisture ingress, and blocks the proliferation of bacteria.

Pictogram, Thermal Efficiency

Excellent Thermal Performance

Poorly insulated technical installations result in higher energy consumption and higher operating costs. Kaiflex has low thermal conductivity, effectively minimizing energy losses and increasing system efficiency.

High Fire Safety

Kaiflex offers certified fire protection, reducing the spread of flames and smoke, being self-extinguishing and non-dripping in case of combustion.

Pictogram, Antimicrobial

Antimicrobial Protection

The presence of mold compromises indoor air quality. Kaiflex is naturally resistant to fungal growth, prevents moisture ingress, and blocks the proliferation of bacteria.
