IInsulation ensures safety, efficiency and comfort on board. It is crucial, and yet it is just one of the many components of a complex ship that requires your attention. Which is why you want to be sure it has been taken care of.
With 115 years of experience, expertise, capacity and energetic project management, Nieuwburg will make sure your project runs to schedule and within budget. Our well-drilled teams work efficiently and effectively, so you avoid any delays. With Nieuwburg, you are choosing quality.
Yacht insulation
On a yacht, you expect peace and quiet, comfort and luxury. We use high-quality insulation to minimise noise and vibration from the engine room, so creating a quiet and pleasant atmosphere on board. We use only certified materials. This ensures safety and quality, along with a finish that matches the yacht’s appearance.
Yacht insulation requires precision in both the choice of materials and execution. By carefully coordinating the insulation and finishing work, we achieve a result that is in keeping with your design and meets the technical requirements of the project.
Thermal insulation
You want to be sure that the climate on board is controlled at all times. In other words, in cold regions, the heat stays inside; in warm regions, it stays outside. With a carefully considered design, we tailor the insulation to suit the space, weight and function. This allows us to achieve the correct insulation value and a stable indoor climate in maritime installations.
Thermal insulation requires an understanding of usage and load. By carefully balancing usage and load, we minimise energy loss and prevent condensation from forming. We work in accordance with the relevant certifications, ensuring that solutions meet the specified requirements.
Acoustic insulation
There are several sources of noise on board. Peace and comfort require a targeted approach to noise and vibration. With a combination of acoustic insulation, absorption and vibration damping, we minimise ambient noise, reflections and sound transmission. These are tailored to the space and its intended use. The effect is measurable in both engine rooms and accommodation areas.
Effective acoustic insulation starts with an understanding of the source, frequency and transmission. By carefully coordinating those aspects, we can reduce noise and vibration in a targeted way. Execution complies with the applicable requirements and certifications.
Fire-resistant insulation
In the event of a fire on board, every second counts. Fire-resistant insulation slows the spread of fire and gives passengers and crew time to take action or to leave the vessel safely. In high-risk areas, such as engine rooms and escape routes, we install fire-resistant insulation where fire and heat can spread.
Fire-resistant insulation makes high demands in terms of the choice of materials and installation. By using the right materials and construction methods, we minimise the risk of fire and heat transmission. We work in accordance with the relevant certifications. Fire resistance is verifiable and guaranteed for you.
Exhaust insulation
Exhaust systems cause high temperatures in the engine room. Exhaust insulation helps to limit heat transmission and keeps the ambient temperature under control. Depending on the situation, we can install permanent insulation or removable insulation mattresses, tailored to your usage and maintenance requirements.
Exhaust insulation requires an understanding of temperature, load and accessibility. By carefully coordinating these factors, we minimise heat transmission and create a safe and workable situation. We make insulated mattresses in our own workshop, allowing us to keep execution fully under control.
