FibroCeram Materials
Premium grade, low thermal conductivity, and high tensile strength aluminosilicate fiber felts optimized for Southern Province industrial operations.
Gitarama, historically recognized as Rwanda’s second-largest urban center and currently integrated into the fast-developing Muhanga District, serves as a vital logistical and industrial hub for the nation's Southern Province. Over the last decade, Rwanda’s Vision 2050 framework has pushed Gitarama to transition from traditional processing toward modern, energy-efficient manufacturing operations. This evolution spans clay brick production, modern ceramic kilns, agribusiness heat generation systems, and metal fabrication workshops.
Traditional thermal equipment in East Africa has suffered historically from low efficiency, leading to exorbitant fuel costs (especially with heavy reliance on imported diesel, biomass, or grid electricity). For instance, traditional structural brick kilns run by local cooperatives in the Southern Province often lose up to 40% of their heat energy through the flue gas and kiln lining structure. By introducing advanced Ceramic Fibre Felts and high-performance blankets, local industrial plants can achieve thermal hysteresis reduction, drastically lowering energy overheads and extending the service life of refractories.
Our company specializes in delivering customized aluminosilicate insulation options designed specifically to survive fluctuations in Gitarama's power grid and high humidity profiles. With high tensile strength and minimal shrinkage at operating temperatures up to 1430°C, these ceramic felt systems provide thermal barrier stability that offsets the high operational cost of industrial kilns.
As Thermal Insulation Material Experts, Henan FibroCeram Advanced Materials Co., Ltd. (Titan New Material) supplies high-purity ceramic fiber systems processed using advanced double-needle blowing and spinning technologies. The resulting fiber matrix possesses exceptionally high elasticity, chemical resistance, and structural uniformity.

Purchasing direct from our Chinese production plants ensures that industrial buyers in Gitarama bypass complex intermediaries, securing premium cost-to-performance ratios and uniform quality standardizations. Henan FibroCeram Advanced Materials is situated in China's refractory materials hub, leveraging high-grade local mineral reserves and cutting-edge heating furnace designs.
Our production line uses state-of-the-art double-needle punching equipment. Unlike single-sided needle punch methods, double-sided needle mechanical entanglement creates a uniform structural web. This ensures the felt has remarkable tensile strength both before and after heating, eliminating delamination risk under intense flue gas shear forces.
We routinely dispatch high-volume orders to East Africa. Shipments intended for Gitarama are loaded into standard GP or HQ ocean containers, shipped to regional transit gateways (the Port of Mombasa in Kenya or the Port of Dar es Salaam in Tanzania), and cleared for direct transport via the Central Corridor through Kigali to your Muhanga site. Our logistics team handles international customs documents, certificates of origin, and phytosanitary declarations to prevent delay.

Explore how different industries deploy Henan FibroCeram's range of high-temperature refractories to stabilize operations and reduce heat loss.
From RTO incinerators to shuttle kilns and rotary kilns, our ceramic fiber blankets and modules serve as the hot-face lining, reducing structural weight and enabling quick thermal cycling.
Movable kilns and tunnel kilns used in Southern Province brickyards rely on our low-shrinkage fiber boards to withstand mechanical vibrations and prevent thermal cracking.
Safe, non-hazardous insulation for commercial bakery ovens and traditional pizza ovens. Our felts prevent outer structural overheating, protecting personnel and surrounding building fixtures.
Extensively deployed in ladle backings, tundish covers, and reheat furnaces where extreme heat resistance and chemical slag inertia are mandatory.
High-density ceramic fiber felts are inserted into the cores of commercial fire doors to meet local building safety codes and thermal breakdown limits.
Industrial steam pipes and boiler exhaust pipelines wrap easily with our ceramic fiber blankets or rock wool, keeping heat localized and maintaining process fluid temperatures.
Our engineers can provide thermal conductivity calculations and density recommendations based on your furnace specs.
