Estonian Association of Insulation Enterprises
Non-profit association Estonian Association of Insulation Enterprises is an association of companies related to the insulation of technical installations. The Association was founded in 2004 and currently has eight members.

MISSION
The mission of the Association is to raise awareness among insulation clients, helping them to understand what good insulation is, to establish Estonian insulation standards, and to represent the interests of insulation companies in their communication with the state and international organizations.
SERIES OF STANDARDS FOR INDUSTRIAL INSULATION AREA EVS 860
The aim of the EVS 860 series of standards, drawn up by a working group of EIEL members, is to provide clarity on the insulation requirements for technical installations, which will help both insulation contractors and contracting authorities to find the most efficient and optimal solution in terms of quality and material. The series of standards focus on insulation solutions for tanks, electric filters, boilers, gas passages, and piping. The solutions included in the series of standards have been developed by companies with the relevant expertise and used in practice for many years.
MEMBERS OF THE ASSOCIATION MAY BE:
(1) entrepreneurs engaged in insulation works and registered in the Republic of Estonia;
(2) associations and unions related to insulation works;
(3) companies manufacturing and/or selling insulation materials and accessories;
(4) construction schools and other educational institutions preparing staff for the construction field;
(5) research institutions;
(6) by decision of the Management Board, other legal persons who accept the statutes of the Association;
(7) entrepreneurs referred to in clause 1, provided that their activities are not in violation of the laws of the Republic of Estonia and that they have no current offenses.
Any legal person registered in the Republic of Estonia may apply for membership. The applicant must submit a written application to the Management Board of the Association. The Management Board decides upon membership.

WHAT IS GOOD INSULATION?
Good insulation can be recognized as being well-made (complies with the standard = executed properly), from good materials (in each particular case, insulation materials developed for the specific purpose have been used) functions well, i.e. saves energy (read: the money of the insulated object’s owner) in the best possible way, looks good (has been made carefully and conscientiously), does not involve issues, its existence tends to be forgotten…
Good insulation is not cheap. If that were the case, good materials and skilled labor could not be used, while working hours could not be spent on careful installation and thoughtful execution. Skimping when ordering insulation leads to significant expenditures during exploitation. Well-made insulation pays off quickly and begins earning money back for its owner thanks to reduced energy losses, doing so continuously and for a long time…
Insulation Standards
The EVS 860 standard series is helpful for companies involved in the field of insulation of technical installations – companies performing insulation work and preliminary work required for insulation, customers, designers, equipment and piping manufacturers, and suppliers of insulation materials. The standard series is also suitable for use in general construction, in both the private and public sectors.
Stainless steels
304/316 Stainless steel: Stainless steel is a generic name for types of steel which contain at least 12% Cr, and Ni, Mo, C, Ti, etc., in varying amounts. Compared to other types of steel, the common feature of stainless steel is significant corrosion-resistance in an oxidizing environment. Stainless steel was first adopted after the end of World War I, mainly in the machine and chemical industries. Today, stainless steel is used in many industries, from utensils used in domestic households to different solutions in the food industry, processing industry, automotive industry, and elsewhere. Today, the following types of stainless steel are mainly used: ferrite, martensitic, austenitic, and austenitic-ferrite steel.
Rock wool
Thermal conductivity. The thermal conductivity factor (λ-value) depends on the temperature. Rock wool has good thermal insulation properties, which do not disappear even when exposed to fire. The drop in temperature in rock wool in cases of extreme temperature is significant enough to prevent material and construction elements on the other side of the rock wool from ignition.
