Highlights of the Stainless Steel Sealed Vacuum Insulation Panel (TIVIP)

The TIVIP utilizes a state-of-the-art technique to maintain a vacuum inside the panel, significantly reducing heat conduction and enhancing insulation. Compared to traditional insulation materials, this advanced panel achieves remarkable insulation efficiency while maintaining a thin profile, making it ideal for energy-saving and space-efficient applications.

The use of stainless steel not only provides robust non-combustibility, but it also ensures the long-term durability of high insulation performance that conventional non-stainless vacuum insulators cannot match. This makes TIVIP an outstanding choice for various industries focusing on energy efficiency and temperature control.

Real-World Applications at the Expo

As part of the Expo's operations, Tiger Corporation incorporates its vacuum insulation technology into multiple transportation solutions for food and other products, ensuring cold chain integrity. These include:
1. Vacuum Insulated Reefer Containers: Used for outdoor storage, enabling comparisons of energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions with and without the panels.
2. Vacuum Insulated Sleeve Boxes: Employed for transporting goods inside and outside the venue, ensuring that products stay chilled during transit.
3. Vacuum Insulated Roll Boxes: Additionally for transporting cold goods within the Expo area to various pavilions and food establishments.

Tiger Corporation is in the process of running demonstration experiments using Sleeve Boxes and Roll Boxes from May 27. While these units are not displayed to the public, they showcase the potential of TIVIP technology in real-world logistics.

Collaborations for Efficient Cold Transport

In collaboration with Gifu Plastic Industry, the TIVIP is combined with the lightweight, high-strength resin-based honeycomb panel "Texcel" to create a robust, insulated unit panel. This combination enhances the insulation capabilities while keeping the overall weight low, suitable for Japan's transport systems like Nippon Express’s "Protect Box Thermal." This means high-efficiency cold transport without the need for traditional energy-intensive refrigerants, resulting in significant reductions in power usage.

Future Impact

The applications of the Stainless Steel Sealed Vacuum Insulation Panel span various industries, particularly those requiring energy efficiency and temperature management, including transport, construction, and building materials. Tiger Corporation is positioning TIVIP technology as a leading innovation that contributes to a sustainable future.
