Largest CBAM-sector emitters in Bahrain

If this CO2 were embedded in EU-bound exports, the CBAM certificate bill at €75.36/t would be:

Facility	t CO2/yr (est. 2023)	Indicative value
Askar aluminium plant	3,506,478	€264.2M
Sulb Bahrain Al Hidd steel plant	1,194,208	€90.0M
Askar Cement Plant	340,384	€25.7M

Pathways for the sectors that pay at the border

Aluminium

≈1.6 t CO2/t direct + power — the Gulf's flagship CBAM exposure.

Steel

1.9 t/t integrated — route choice decides the CBAM bill.

Cement

0.7 t/t, two-thirds process CO2.

Fertilizers

≈2 t CO2/t NH3 — hydrogen chemistry.

Hydrogen

9–11 t/t grey — CBAM from day one.

Inzonex removable modular insulation on industrial equipment

Cut the tonnes at the source

Hot industrial equipment? Cut the heat loss.

Boilers, kilns, heat exchangers, valves and steam lines lose energy continuously. Inzonex makes patented (UK GB2508992.1) removable modular insulation — snap-fastened covers engineered per temperature tier, not generic off-the-shelf jackets:

Up to 90% less heat loss from insulated surfaces
Surface temperature ≤45 °C — touch-safe for workers (EN ISO 13732-1)
6× faster maintenance access than fixed cut-and-weld lagging — unclips and refits in minutes, no destruction
Inspectable — comes off to check for corrosion under insulation, then refits like-new (generic jackets often don't survive removal)
Typical payback under 2 years (some 9–11 months)
