Get QuotesIn modern industrial and building design, thermal containment limits directly define operational efficiency and carbon footprints.
Traditional insulation materials (such as Expanded Polystyrene, Polyurethane foams, and Rockwool/Mineral wool) rely on trapping air inside porous structures to slow down heat transfer. However, static air has a thermal conductivity limit of approximately 0.025 W/m·K at standard temperature and pressure.
Vacuum Insulation Panels (VIPs) bypass this physical limitation by removing the air molecules entirely. Zerothermo Technology's fumed silica-cored VIP systems reach record thermal conductivities as low as 0.004 W/m·K—over five to ten times more efficient than conventional insulations. This drastic shift allows design teams to shrink insulation thickness by up to 90% while achieving identical thermal resistance (R-values).
| Material Type | Thermal Conductivity (W/m·K) | Thickness Needed for R-30 | Estimated Lifespan |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fumed Silica VIP (Zerothermo) | 0.004 - 0.005 | ~20 - 25 mm | 30 - 50 Years |
| Fiberglass Core VIP | 0.002 - 0.003 (Initial) | ~15 - 20 mm | 10 - 15 Years (Rapid aging) |
| Polyurethane (PU) Foam | 0.022 - 0.026 | ~120 - 150 mm | 15 - 25 Years |
| Extruded Polystyrene (XPS) | 0.029 - 0.035 | ~180 - 210 mm | 20 - 40 Years |
| Rockwool / Mineral Wool | 0.035 - 0.042 | ~220 - 260 mm | 30+ Years |
Analyzing physical structures, gas transmission barrier layers, and the long-term science behind vacuum thermal preservation.
At the sub-micron scale, thermal conductivity is highly dependent on gas pressure. Fumed silica cores feature micropores smaller than the mean free path of air molecules. This restricts heat conduction even if minor vacuum degradation occurs over decades.
The lifetime of a VIP depends entirely on its envelope. We develop advanced PET, metallic foil, and EVOH co-extruded barrier foils that keep oxygen and water vapor transmission rates (WVTR) at near-zero levels, ensuring a lifespan exceeding 50 years.
Looking to the future, Zerothermo is researching smart VIP structures featuring integrated RF and NFC pressure sensors. This allows building and cold chain fleet operators to monitor the vacuum health of panels in real-time without physical inspection.
Deploying specialized insulation strategies across high-precision global supply chains, green architecture, and high-temperature systems.
In clinical trials, bio-specimen shipping, and vaccine distribution (such as mRNA vaccines requiring stable -70°C or -20°C environments), traditional insulation materials fail to provide security over extended shipping delays. By utilizing fumed silica vacuum insulation panels, cooler containers can maintain ultra-cold payloads for up to 120 hours without external power, reducing weight and volumetric transit fees significantly.
Sourcing Benefit: Zero failure risk, lower ice pack requirements, and optimized cargo configurations.
As cities enforce carbon-neutral requirements, exterior wall retrofits face spatial limitations. Building with traditional insulation requires thick, heavy wall assemblies that reduce profitable interior floor space. Zerothermo VIPs achieve compliance with R-values of 30+ at thicknesses of just 20mm, preserving premium real estate yields in dense urban centers while meeting strict passive house standards.
Sourcing Benefit: Prefabricated wall integrations, reduced site installation times, and high ROI per square meter of usable building space.
Modern battery designs for New Energy Vehicles (NEVs) demand dynamic heat barriers. Our customized microporous silica and flexible nano insulation blankets withstand temperatures up to 1000°C. Placed between battery cells, they isolate cell failure, prevent cascading thermal runaways, and protect passengers without adding excessive weight or volume to the battery enclosure.
Sourcing Benefit: High flame retardancy ratings, custom physical shapes, and robust mechanical stability.

2023/Apr/13Get answers to common technical, logistics, and processing questions about Vacuum Insulation Panels.
A: No. Because VIPs rely on an internal vacuum to achieve their high thermal performance, any cutting, puncturing, or drilling will compromise the outer barrier envelope. Once air enters, the vacuum is lost, and the panel's thermal conductivity increases back to the level of standard porous materials (~0.020 W/m·K). All panels must be pre-measured, designed, and manufactured to your exact size specifications.
A: Fumed silica cores feature very small nanopores (around 50-100 nm). Because of this structure, they remain highly effective even if the vacuum degrades slightly over time. Fiberglass cores can achieve slightly lower thermal conductivity initially, but they have larger micro-scale pores. If the vacuum in a fiberglass panel degrades, its performance drops quickly. For building construction, fumed silica VIPs are preferred for their stability and long service life.
A: To reduce thermal bridging at panel joints, we recommend using a staggered double-layer installation layout or combining the VIPs with traditional foam insulation boards (like XPS or polyurethane). This layout covers the joint seams and prevents heat loss through the edges.
A: Zerothermo products undergo testing to meet major international standards. Our panels are tested for thermal performance, fire resistance, and environmental safety (under protocols like ASTM, EN standards, REACH, and RoHS), ensuring they meet local building codes globally.
A: While VIPs have a higher upfront cost than standard foam insulation, they provide savings over time by optimizing space. In cold chain logistics, VIPs reduce container size and shipping costs. In real estate, the thin profile of VIPs maximizes usable floor space, helping to offset the initial material cost.
