This video shows the operation of our automated panel saw, which was recently commissioned as part of an expansion of our manufacturing facilities.

PIR Insulated Cold Room Panels, featuring the unique QUANTEC formulation, are lifted effortlessly onto the new machine and precisely cut to length and width to accurately and efficiently meet specific panel orders for interior wall panels.

Panels are then safely lifted off the machine, stacked and packed ready for delivery.

What are Cold Room Panels?

Cold room panels typically consist of PIR (Polyisocyanurate) insulation, sandwiched between two steel faces, usually coated with FoodSafe Laminate. They are a type of building product that provides thermally insulated internal walls for applications where temperature control is critical. These composite panels offer excellent insulation properties while also serving as a structural element of a building.

Benefits of Cold Room Panels:

  1. Excellent Insulation: PIR cold room panels have a low R-value, which is a measure of their thermal resistance. This means they effectively reduce the transfer of heat through walls, roofs, and ceilings, leading to energy savings and better performance.
  2. Space Savings: PIR panels provide insulation and structural support in a single unit, eliminating the need for additional layers of insulation and framing. This can result in space savings compared to traditional construction methods.
  3. Fast Installation: Cold room panels are pre-fabricated, which speeds up the construction process. They can be quickly assembled on-site, reducing labor and construction time.
  4. Lightweight: These panels are relatively lightweight compared to some other construction materials, making transportation and installation easier.
  5. Fire Resistance: Cold room panels featuring the QUANTEC PIR formulation have inherent fire-resistant properties. They are self-extinguishing and do not contribute significantly to the spread of flames.
  6. Durability: PIR panels are durable and long-lasting. They resist moisture and degradation over time, contributing to the longevity of the building.
  7. Design Flexibility: These panels come in various sizes, thicknesses, and facing materials, allowing for flexibility in design and aesthetic options.
  8. Energy Efficiency: Due to their excellent insulation properties, PIR cold room panels contribute to improved energy efficiency in buildings, reducing the need for heating and cooling.
  9. Environmental Impact: PIR insulation is generally considered more environmentally friendly than some other types of insulation, as it has a lower global warming potential and less embodied energy.

It is important to note that proper installation and consideration of building codes and regulations are crucial when using cold room panels featuring QUANTEC PIR insulation, to ensure their maximum effectiveness and safety.

How are Cold Room Panels used?

Cold Room Panels featuring QUANTEC PIR insulation are used in a wide range of temperature-controlled environments due to their excellent thermal insulation properties. These panels are well-suited for environments where maintaining specific temperature conditions is crucial for various purposes. Some of the temperature-controlled environments where Cold Room Panels are commonly used include:

  1. Cold Storage and Refrigeration Warehouses: Cold room panels are extensively used in cold storage facilities, refrigerated warehouses, and freezer rooms. They help maintain consistent low temperatures and prevent heat infiltration, ensuring the quality and safety of stored goods such as food, pharmaceuticals, and other perishable items.
  2. Food Processing Facilities: In industries such as food processing, where temperature control is essential for hygiene and safety reasons, cold room panels are used to create insulated walls, ceilings, and floors to regulate temperature and maintain sanitary conditions.
  3. Cleanrooms: Cleanrooms require precise control over temperature, humidity, and particle levels. Cold Room Panels are used to construct cleanroom walls and ceilings to provide thermal insulation while maintaining strict environmental conditions for industries such as pharmaceuticals, electronics, and biotechnology.
  4. Climate-Controlled Warehouses: Cold Room Panels are suitable for climate-controlled warehouses where goods like electronics, sensitive equipment, and certain industrial materials need to be stored at specific temperature ranges to prevent damage.
  5. Temperature-Sensitive Manufacturing Facilities: Industries that involve temperature-sensitive manufacturing processes, such as the production of chemicals, plastics, and specialty materials, often utilize Cold Room Panels to create controlled environments that optimize production and product quality.
  6. HVAC Ducts and Enclosures: These panels can be used to create insulated enclosures for HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) systems and ductwork, ensuring that temperature-controlled air distribution is maintained efficiently.
  7. Research and Testing Laboratories: Laboratories that require stable temperature conditions for scientific experiments and testing often use Cold Room Panels to create controlled environments that prevent temperature fluctuations.
  8. Pharmaceutical and Medical Facilities: Cold Room Panels are employed in pharmaceutical storage areas, laboratories, and medical facilities where maintaining specific temperature ranges is critical for preserving the integrity of medications, vaccines, and medical supplies.
  9. Data Centres: Data centres generate significant heat due to the operation of servers and computing equipment. Cold Room Panels can be used to create thermal barriers that help manage heat buildup and ensure optimal operating conditions.
  10. Agricultural Facilities: Greenhouses, nurseries, and other agricultural environments use these panels to regulate temperatures for plant growth and protection, creating favourable conditions for different types of crops.

Cold Room Panels are valued for their ability to create energy-efficient and controlled environments, making them versatile solutions for various industries and applications where precise temperature control is essential.
