INSULATED FOAM PANELS

Home: Services

PANEL SKINS

Our panels are constructed from

rigid metal or other skin such as

stainless, embossed aluminum, galvanized, OSB, or other pre-finished material.

PANEL SPECS

Our standard panel thickness is 2 inches, but we offer custom thicknesses between 1 inch to 6 inches, manufacturing panels up to 4 feet wide and over 14 feet in length. Panels are injected to ensure a void-free core for strength and performance. Weighing in at 1.5 lbs/sq.ft., manpower and equipment requirements are minimized onsite. Designed with a 2-inch thick polyurethane core, our panels have the same thermal characteristics as 4 inches of fiberglass. Our panels have been tested in accordance with ASTM E84 and meet SNAP 2021 requirements.

ENGINEERING DATA

Our panel systems are joined together by no-thru metal extruded aluminum members, ensuring a thermal break between the inside and outside skins, as well as reinforcing the enclosure for high-pressure applications. They can also be joined by tongue & groove butt joints, flashing strips and trim angles that allow similar no-thru metal construction for low-pressure applications. All joints are sealed to be water and airtight, with sealant or industrial RTV silicone and are mechanically fastened per manufacturing instructions.
