How Emisshield Drives Faster Kiln Cycle Times

Even on worn or corroded substrates, our Emisshield High Emissivity Coatings (HECs) drive substantial energy savings and reduced kiln cycle times.

Even on worn or corroded substrates, our Emisshield High Emissivity Coatings (HECs) drive substantial energy savings and reduced kiln cycle times.

By improving energy transfer and same-frequency heat re-radiation, our HECs reduce energy loss and ensure uniform heating. These improvements translate to energy savings of up to 10%.

Meanwhile, our HECs significantly cut down cycle times, achieving desired temperatures up to 25% quicker. Once our typical one-day installation process is complete, our HECs dry within 12 hours and are ready for use the very next day.

Through a joint effort with the National Brick Research Center (NBRC) at Clemson University, we have expanded our research with additional metrics in a controlled testing environment. We plan to release our study shortly with a full before-and-after comparison of the coated and uncoated kiln, so stay tuned!

Warm regards,
