Drum Cover Insulation

Insulated Drum & IBC Covers for Thermal Retention

Reusable thermal insulation covers for 200L drums and 1000L IBCs – designed to improve energy efficiency and protect contents during storage or transport

At Textile Technologies Europe Ltd, we manufacture and supply aluminised insulation covers tailored to fit standard 200L drums and 1000L intermediate bulk containers (IBCs).

Designed for use in both industrial and commercial settings, these covers reduce heat loss, protect temperature-sensitive contents, and improve process control during storage, transit, or handling of heated or chilled materials.

These thermal covers are widely used across sectors such as chemical processing, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, food and beverage, and manufacturing, where temperature stability is essential for material integrity, viscosity, or compliance with handling procedures.

Key Performance Features

  • Thermal Protection Multi-layered construction featuring internal insulation and an aluminised outer layer offers high reflectivity and heat containment, reducing temperature drop during cooling or heating cycles.
  • Form-Fitted for Standard Drums & IBCs Designed to fit 200L steel or plastic drums and 1000L IBC tanks, ensuring full surface contact and minimal thermal leakage.
  • Reusable & Durable Covers are constructed from robust technical textiles for long-term performance in demanding environments, resistant to moisture, chemicals, and mechanical wear.
  • Easy to Fit, Remove & Store Lightweight and flexible, these covers can be easily installed or removed, with fastenings or Velcro straps for secure closure and ease of use.

Typical Use Cases

  • Maintaining fluid viscosity during storage of oils, resins, or food-grade liquids
  • Improving heating efficiency when used alongside drum or IBC base heaters
  • Protecting contents during transport between temperature-variable environments
  • Reducing condensation and minimising energy loss in cold or humid conditions

FAQs: Insulated Drum & IBC Covers

What insulation materials are used inside the covers?

Our covers typically use high-efficiency mineral or polyester-based insulation layered with a heat-reflective aluminised outer surface to ensure maximum heat retention and durability.

Are these covers suitable for outdoor use?

Yes. The aluminised outer layer is water-resistant and UV-stable, making the covers suitable for short-term outdoor use or for transport in uncovered environments.

Can the covers be reused or cleaned?

Our covers are designed for repeated use and can be wiped down or cleaned with a damp cloth, depending on contamination levels and operational requirements.

Do you offer custom sizing or branding options?

Yes. While we stock standard 200L and 1000L sizes, we also offer custom dimensions, closures, and branded labelling for OEMs, resellers, or end users with specific requirements
