The Gemcolite® Wet Insulating Blanket is a moist, vacuum formed sheet of alumina-silica fiber with inorganic binder. Packed in heat sealed plastic bags, it is easily shaped or molded, and achieves its insulating capabilities as the blanket dries. The properties of Gemcolite® insulation blankets allow for easy creation of prototypes and test shapes.
