Dugar Insulations India Private Limited Chennai, Tamil Nadu

The expanded or exfoliated Vermiculite is Dugarlite, the wonder mineral ore expands up to 20 times its original size into a lightweight, chemically inert and fire resistant material. It is used in many industries. Dugarlite is exfoliated in our modern expanding unit at a temperature ranging from 400°C - 1000°C. The expanded vermiculite which takes on a golden or bronze hue has a smooth lustrous surface that reflects heat. One tonne of Dugarlite covers an area of 4000 sq.ft. appx and a depth of one inch. ADVANTAGES Dugarlite is Light in weight Non-corrosive Free flowing Non conductor of electricity Odourless Acid-resistant Chemically Inert Non abrasive Reflective     Non-toxic Highly Hygroscopic Low thermal conductivity Vermin, termite, moth and rodent proof Insoluble in water & organic solvents Resistance to heat penetration High thermal insulation. Asbestos Free   CONSTRUCTION Thermal insulation of roofs in buildings. Acoustical insulation Insulation of air conditioning ducts. Masonry filling of hollow bricks. Wall plaster aggregates Decoration medium.

Packing :  Done in polythene lined gunny bags / New HDPE bags: Nett weight 10 kg. each for Extoliated Vermiculite. Raw Vermiculite :  30 – 50 kg. each bag.

Special graded Dugarlite (Expanded Vermiculite) mixed with suitable binder could be casted or moulded in any shape. These shaped bricks are ‘Dugar Insulate’-manufactured as per BIS 2042. PROPERTIES OF DUGAR INSULATE Light in weight No shrinkage Low density Low thermal conductivity High porosity USES As back up or cold face insulation bricks in industry to arrest heat radiation and facilitate fuel conservation Saves fuel cost by 30%approximately Increases furnace life. In kilns, chimneys, flues, boilers, cold storage walls etc. STANDARD AVAILABLE SIZE 1) 230 x 114 x 75/65/50/40/25 mm 2) 250 x 123 x 75/65/50/40/25 mm 3) 500 x170 x 75/65/50/40/25 mm Other sizes of bricks, blocks, plates shapes, etc are tailor made on request.

Selected grades of Dugarlite expanded vermiculite mixed with special binders is marketed by Dugar as Dugar insulet Refractory insulation – a ready to use compound which finds application in ovens, roofs, hot pipes, ducts, flues, chimney base and furnaces. The superior adhesive property of this refractory insulation makes it stick easily to metallic or any other surface. Also, it could be poured (pourable insulation) in between walls or where accessibility is difficult. It could be also casted at site (castable insulation)   USES An ideal light weight insulating cement to plug and arrest radiation loss for effective fuel conservation. An alternative to insulation grog, with better performance. A dense variety is used for preparation of floor bed or furnance and chimneys to prevent heat transmission. Packing :  Done in polythene line gunny bags or new bags of 25 kgs each.

Dugar insulset Roof Insulation Ready Mix consists of selected grades of Dugarlite mixed with binders and additives to be poured directly on the R.C.C. Roof for thermal insulation of buildings.   It is inexpensive , permanent, simple and quick to lay and an ideal thermal insulation material for buildings that are centrally or partially air-conditioned as well as computer rooms. It is manufactured as per A S T M standards C-196 -83 and conforms to IS 6598 – 72.   COVERAGE 100 sq.ft. area requires 350 kgs of dry mix for an average thickness of 3”. Alternatively 1 sq. met. of 3” thickness requires approdimately 35 kgs of dry mix. ADVANTAGES Termite, moth, vermin and rodent proof Fire proof Non corrosive and non conductor of electricity It is 30 times more cooling than bricks and 45 times more effective than concrete in insulating value. 1”of Dguar Insulset Roof insulation in equal to 20” of regular concrete in insulating value. It is as good as foam concretecellular concrete thermal insulation. Versatile and easy to apply on any base or surface Keeps the building cool in summer and warm during winter. USES Thermal insulation of roofs against heat Over corrugated A.C. Roofs for thermal insulation against heat Floors of computer rooms, cold storage rooms, battery rooms in steel plants and floors of swimming pools Denser mix is used on the bed of furnances/kilns/chimneys for arresting dissipation of heat. Packing :  Second hand/new HDPE Bags Weight :-  25 kg nett in each bag.
