Protecting power plant chimneys
Pennguard Lining: An Innovative and Reliable Protection System
Pennguard Lining is an innovative and reliable protection system used to shield industrial structures, such as chimneys, flue gas ducts, and other concrete or steel surfaces, from corrosion, chemical attack, and high temperatures. This system is ideal for industries where exposure to aggressive chemicals and extreme temperature fluctuations is a daily reality.

The Composition and Functioning of Pennguard Lining
Pennguard Lining consists of lightweight foam glass combined with a special chemically resistant mortar. This foam glass is a highly dense and inert material, resistant to virtually all forms of chemical attack. Additionally, the foam glass offers excellent insulation properties, meaning it effectively controls temperature fluctuations within the structure and extends the lifespan of the underlying material.
The mortar used to bond the foam glass is also chemically resistant, providing a strong and durable connection between the Pennguard tiles and the surface to be protected. Together, these components form a robust and reliable protective shield capable of withstanding the most challenging environmental conditions.
Applications of Pennguard Lining
Pennguard Lining is used worldwide in a broad range of industrial applications. One of its primary uses is in the chimneys and flue gas ducts of power plants, cement factories, and other heavy industries. These structures are often exposed to aggressive flue gases and acid condensation, which, without proper protection, can cause significant damage.
By installing Pennguard Lining, these structures are protected against the corrosive effects of these aggressive substances, reducing maintenance costs and significantly extending the infrastructure’s lifespan.
In addition to chimneys and flue gas ducts, Pennguard Lining is also used in storage tanks, absorption columns, and other industrial equipment exposed to aggressive chemicals. The chemical resistance of the system makes it particularly suitable for these applications, where other materials would quickly degrade.

Benefits of Pennguard Lining
Pennguard Lining offers a wide range of benefits, making it a preferred choice for many industrial applications. Some of the key advantages include:
- Excellent Chemical Resistance: Pennguard Lining provides superior resistance to a wide range of aggressive chemicals, making it suitable for the most demanding industrial environments.
- Lightweight: The foam glass structure of Pennguard is extremely light, simplifying the installation process and minimizing the load on existing infrastructure.
- High Temperature Resistance: Pennguard can withstand extreme temperatures, making it an excellent choice for applications where temperature fluctuations occur frequently.
- Insulating Properties: Thanks to its insulating properties, Pennguard Lining helps control temperature variations within the structure, contributing to a longer material lifespan.
- Long Lifespan: One of the greatest benefits of Pennguard Lining is its durability. Once installed, the system provides protection for many years without requiring frequent maintenance.
Installation of Pennguard Lining
The installation of Pennguard Lining requires expert knowledge and experience. The process begins with a thorough inspection of the surface to be protected, followed by the careful application of the chemically resistant mortar and the precise placement of the Pennguard foam glass tiles. Although the installation must be done meticulously, the end result is a robust and durable protection system.
