TPS is happy to announce the opening of the first new calcium silicate (calsil) insulation factory capable of servicing the North American market in over 45 years! The new factory is a the most advanced and efficient calsil factory in the world and has fully optimized the new manufacturing technologies and automation developed since the mid 1970’s. The greenfield factory was constructed and financed by BEC Industrial Insulation. The annual production of the factory is 2.5 times the capacity of the previous factory formerly known as “IIG Shanghai” and will be the catalyst that will allow BEC calsil (branded as TPSX-12 in North America) to continue to inject legitimate competition against the incumbent supplier and capture 50% or more of the calsil market over the next 3-5 years.
