About Us

Our Company

Quest Thermal Group is a technology development engineering firm, specializing in the design and manufacture of advanced thermal insulation systems, offering the highest performance available. Our team of engineers and scientists has been developing advanced thermal systems since 2006, using proprietary Discrete Spacer Technology™ with low heat flux and unique structural capabilities. We work closely with our customers to provide tailored solutions over the full project lifecycle.

High performance aerospace insulation systems are available for spacecraft, cryogenic propellant vehicles, for in-space, in-air, lunar surface, deep space or Mars ISRU. Commercial superinsulation systems are in development for hydrogen fueled aircraft, vehicles and infrastructure, as well as cold supply chain, quantum computing, superconducting and commercial/industrial applications. Quest creates next-generation thermal products with substantial benefits over prior state-of-the-art solutions.

Quest manufactures its aerospace insulation products in Class 100,000 (ISO Class 8) environmentally-controlled cleanrooms outfitted with custom manufacturing equipment. Our new robotic automated fabrication line uses the latest in automation and robotic fabrication for significantly increased throughput.

We work with the top names in aerospace and high-technology industries, and possess the tools and expertise to take your concept from note pad to launch pad!

Quest Completes IMLI Fabrication for NASA’s NEOS Space Telescope
Quest Completes IMLI Fabrication for NASA’s NEOS Space Telescope
March 12, 2025
Quest Thermal's cutting-edge Integrated MultiLayer Insulation (IMLI) has been chosen by Ball Aerospace and NASA to insulate the NASA NEOS infrared space telescope. The Near-Earth Object Surveyor space telescope is designed to help advance NASA’s planetary defense efforts to discover and characterize most of the potentially hazardous asteroids and comets that come within 30 million miles of Earth’s orbit. By detecting and characterizing these celestial bodies, NEOS contributes to planetary defense and scientific research.

Quest Thermal’s IMLI finalist for “Coolest Thing Made in Colorado”
Quest Thermal’s IMLI finalist for “Coolest Thing Made in Colorado”
August 8, 2024
Quest Thermal's IMLI was a finalist for the "Coolest Thing Made in Colorado" competition. We were being whimsical when we said since IMLI operates down to 4K (-452F) for LHe dewars, it must be the COOLEST thing made in Colorado. That's not quite true, as quantum computing dilution refrigerators operate at 10mK. Nevertheless, Quest and IMLI were proud to be a finalist in the competition!
