Success Story Summary
FOAMGLAS® Insulation Serves as Solution for Process Control and Corrosion Protection

When Chicago-based FMC Corporation added a new liquid solution mining processing plant in Green River, Wyo., it needed an insulation that would stand up to its precision temperature processing procedures. FMC specified FOAMGLAS
® cellular glass insulation primarily because of its anti-corrosive qualities and for its impermeability to liquids. Soda ash residue makes fibrous glass insulation very hard, diminishing its insulation value. And over time, it will eventually dissolve calcium silicate. FOAMGLAS
® Insulation does not absorb moisture; so it maintains its insulation value. FMC has used FOAMGLAS
® Insulation on other soda ash processing facilities for many years, and after more than 20 years of use in its facilities, FOAMGLAS
® Insulation continues to be very reliable.
