Why engineering buyers trust our technical notes

Anchor-Microporous track record

The news and articles section on this page has been maintained since 2017, with more than 200 articles published to date. The editorial cadence is twice-monthly and the editorial team includes our application engineering staff (who contribute technical content), our sales team (who contribute market intelligence from customer interactions), and external contributors (industry analysts, academic researchers, and customer engineers who contribute case studies). Articles are reviewed by the lead application engineer before publication to verify technical accuracy; market-related articles are reviewed by our export sales director to verify commercial accuracy. The archive is searchable by topic, by industry, by product, and by date — readers who are researching a specific question can typically find 3–5 relevant articles in the archive.

How we source the numbers in these articles

The articles in this section are cited by external sources — academic papers, trade publications, regulatory submissions, and customer engineering specifications. Our editorial policy is to support every numerical claim with either our own verified data or with a citation to a recognised external source; this makes our articles useful as reference material for downstream users. Past articles that have been cited in external work include the comparison of microporous board versus ceramic-fibre blanket (cited in a European refractory-industry white paper), the energy-saving analysis for steel-mill ladle backup (cited in a Chinese steel-industry sustainability report), and the marine HVAC specification guide (cited in a Lloyd's Register technical commentary). If you cite one of our articles in your own work and would like us to be aware of the citation, please notify the editorial team; we maintain a citation log that helps us understand which content is most useful to the industry.

Articles reflect the state of knowledge at publication

The articles on this page reflect the state of knowledge at the time of publication; insulation technology, regulatory requirements, and industry practice evolve continuously. We update or supersede articles when significant new information becomes available, and the archive notes the publication date and the last review date for each article. If you are making a procurement or specification decision based on information from this section, please verify with our application engineering team that the information is still current and applicable to your specific situation. The editorial team can be reached via the contact form on this website; for time-sensitive questions, please call us during business hours. We do not publish sponsored content or paid placements — every article is produced by our editorial team or by named external contributors with editorial review. Disclosure of any potential conflict of interest (e.g. an article discussing a product where we have a commercial interest) is included at the end of the article.

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick technical and commercial answers about materials, testing and installation for engineering buyers, procurement teams, and installers. For project-specific questions not covered here, contact our application engineering team.

The news section is updated twice a month — typically the first and third Tuesday of each month. Each update includes one technical article (an industry topic, an application case study, or a product specification deep-dive) and one industry-update article (a market or regulatory development relevant to industrial insulation). The schedule is maintained even when there is no major news event, so readers who subscribe see a predictable cadence. Articles remain in the archive permanently; older articles are not removed unless they contain factual errors or are superseded by a clearly more recent analysis. The article index on this page lists the most recent 24 articles; readers can access older articles via the category archive (industry news, application case studies, product specifications, regulatory updates) or via the search function. Articles are published in English only; the underlying source data may include English, German, Japanese, or Chinese references and the English text is the canonical version.
Four topic areas are covered. Industry news — significant developments in the microporous insulation market, the broader high-temperature insulation market, and the end-use industries we serve (steel, aluminium, petrochemical, marine, HVAC, aerospace). We cover M&A activity, capacity expansions, new product launches, and major regulatory changes (e.g. REACH substance additions, IMO emissions rules, OSHA updates). Application case studies — detailed technical write-ups of customer installations where we have permission to publish; each case study includes the host equipment specification, the insulation specification, the calculated vs measured performance, and lessons learned. Product specifications — deep-dives into specific products (board grades, facings, formed parts, VIP) with measured data, application guidance, and comparison against alternative materials. Regulatory updates — changes to standards (EN, ISO, ASTM, GB), to substance regulations (REACH, RoHS, asbestos bans), and to industry codes (ASME, API, Lloyd’s rules) that affect our products or our customers’ specifications.
Yes — email subscription is available at the bottom of the article index on this page. Subscribers receive a single digest email on the first and third Tuesday of each month containing links to the two new articles plus a one-paragraph summary of each. The email list is managed by our marketing automation system; subscribers can unsubscribe at any time via the link in the email footer, and we honour unsubscribe requests within 24 hours. We do not share the email list with third parties; we do not use the list for marketing beyond the article digest. The subscription is free and there is no premium tier — all subscribers receive the same content. For customers who prefer RSS, an RSS feed is available at /feed/ and includes all article posts; the RSS feed is standard WordPress format and works with any RSS reader. For customers who want to be notified of a specific topic (e.g. ladle backup, marine HVAC), the article index supports category filtering so you can subscribe to the categories relevant to your interest.
Yes — topic requests are welcome and we respond to most requests within 30 days. The process is: (1) reader submits a topic request via the contact form or via email to the editorial team, (2) the editorial team reviews the request and assesses whether the topic is within our coverage area, (3) if accepted, the topic is added to the editorial calendar and assigned to one of our application engineers or to an external contributor. We do not commit to a specific publication date because article quality depends on the technical data we can gather — some topics need customer interviews, some need laboratory testing, and some need regulatory research. We acknowledge receipt of the topic request within 5 working days and provide an estimated publication timeline. If the requested topic is outside our coverage area, we refer the reader to a more appropriate source (e.g. a refractory-industry trade publication, a regulatory agency, or a subject-matter expert in our network). Past topic requests have included industry-specific deep-dives, technical comparisons, and regulatory interpretations — the editorial calendar reflects the topics requested by our readers.
Yes — articles on this site can be cited and republished under the terms below. Citation: standard academic citation format is acceptable (author, article title, publication date, URL); no separate permission is needed for citation in academic papers, technical reports, trade publications, or internal corporate documents. Republishing: for republication of the full article text on another website or in a printed publication, please contact our editorial team for written permission. We typically grant republication permission within 5 working days, with the condition that the republished version includes a clear attribution to Anchor-Microporous and a link back to the original article on this site. Translation: for translation of an article into another language, please contact our editorial team; we typically grant translation permission provided the translation is accurate and the translated version includes attribution to Anchor-Microporous and a note that the original English version is the canonical text. We do not charge fees for citation, republication, or translation permission.
Yes — all numerical claims in our articles are backed by either our own laboratory testing or by cited third-party sources. Our own testing is conducted at our Guangzhou facility on calibrated equipment (heat-flow meter per ASTM C518 / ASTM C1114, compression tester per ASTM C165, density measurement per ASTM C303); the laboratory is operated by the quality-control team and results are stored in the QC database with the production lot reference. Third-party testing is conducted at ISO 17025-accredited laboratories (SGS, TÜV, BV, Intertek) when the test requires certification (e.g. EN 13501-1 fire classification, REACH substance testing) or when the customer requires independent verification. Each article includes a data-source note at the end describing where the data came from; readers with technical questions about the data can contact the editorial team. We do not publish marketing-only claims (e.g. “best in class”) without supporting data; we do publish opinion articles but the opinion is clearly labelled as such and is separate from the data-driven content.
