We pride ourselves on the fact that our insulation solutions are not only built to do their job – and do it well – but also assist you in recouping the insulation costs in an expedited manner through:

• Reduction of lost energy from extreme temperatures reducing the energy needed to maintain consistent temperature of the application. Reducing energy saves your business money immediately and consistently over time.
• Our custom removable insulation blankets are built to be removed in a fraction of the time when compared to other insulation types—without the need for tools. Maintenance for these custom insulation blanket solutions is quick and simple. Our custom removable insulation blankets can be designed and manufactured for any equipment you may need insulated.
• The costs involved in replacing other types of insulation – wages and material costs – once removed.
• They are built to last.

Our Freeze Protection blankets are built to withstand the coldest arctic temperatures.

Companies that regularly operate in extremely cold environments require a freeze protection solution, especially those that handle fluid transportation and piping infrastructure. When piping is exposed to very low temperatures, there is a risk that the fluid inside may become frozen, especially during slow or intermittent movement.

SUM Ltd’s custom removable insulation blankets provide excellent resistance to extreme weather conditions. Our heat traced blankets are built to resist arctic temperatures of up to -76°F, or -60°C.

Yes. We can solve for sound insulation too.

Our insulation blankets can absorb, dampen, and reflect sound waves. Our sound insulation solutions are built to significantly reduce overall noise levels, protecting your employees and keeping your business noise bylaw compliant .

At SUM Ltd, our commitment to the environment is two-fold.
