Sandwich Panel

Engineered Structural & Insulated Sandwich Panels for Industrial Enclosure Systems

 

Sandwich Panels combine high-strength metallic or composite outer facings (prepainted galvanized steel, Galvalume, aluminum, or fiberglass) with specialized structural or insulation core materials using automated continuous thermal lamination. Engineered as an all-in-one building envelope component, these panels integrate structural load-bearing capacity, thermal resistance, air-tightness, and fire protection into a single factory-controlled modular element.

 

Applied across industrial manufacturing plants, cold chain logistics hubs, pharmaceutical cleanrooms, and commercial vehicle bodies, these composite panels eliminate site insulation labor, prevent thermal bridging, and significantly reduce construction timelines while maintaining structural integrity under high wind loads.

Continuous Double-Belt Press Technology:
Panels are bonded under a 30-meter automated double-belt press. Controlled heating and continuous pressure application eliminate air pockets, ensuring full-surface chemical bonding between facings and core insulation without surface telegraphing.

Automated Adhesive Distribution:
Two-component polyurethane adhesive is applied via multi-head oscillating spray nozzles at precise coat weights, maintaining skin-to-core shear strength above specification across 100% of the panel area.

Factory Quality Verification Testing:
Every production lot undergoes structural and thermal validation:
Tensile Bond Strength Test: Destructive sample testing to confirm skin-to-core bond failure occurs within the core material, not along the glue line.

Density & Dimensional Calibration: Digital density logging for PIR foam and laser alignment scans across panel width to verify joint tongue-and-groove tolerances.

Thermal Aging Testing: Accelerated environmental testing verifying zero core shrinkage or facing delamination under temperature differentials from -30 degrees C to +70 degrees C.

FAQ

 

 

Q: What is the primary operational difference between PIR and Rockwool Sandwich Panels?

A: PIR panels offer superior thermal insulation performance with a very low thermal conductivity (0.022 W/m.K), making them ideal for cold storage where energy saving and thin panel profiles are paramount. Rockwool panels utilize inorganic mineral fiber that provides non-combustible Class A1 fire protection and sound absorption, making them mandatory for fire-rated building compartments, high-occupancy industrial plants, and hazardous storage zones.

Q: How do you prevent panel delamination during thermal expansion and contraction cycles?

A: Delamination is prevented through precise skin treatment and adhesive chemistry. Steel facings undergo corona surface treatment prior to lamination to increase surface tension. Combined with continuous double-belt hot-pressing and two-component PUR adhesive bonding, the bond strength exceeds the internal cohesive strength of the core material itself under temperature swings from -30 degrees C to +70 degrees C.

Q: How is water penetration prevented at panel joints in exterior wall and roof applications?

A: Our panels feature deep-interlocking tongue-and-groove joints engineered with capillary break grooves. Factory-applied butyl rubber sealants or EPDM gaskets are integrated along the joint recess. For roof applications, 3-rib or 5-rib overlapping profiles with hidden fastener clips ensure continuous water shedding without exposed screw penetrations.

Q: Are these sandwich panels certified for hygienic cleanroom and food processing applications?

A: Yes. Cleanroom grade panels use flat or micro-ribbed food-safe PPGI or Stainless Steel 304 facings coated with anti-bacterial PVC films or USDA-compliant PE coatings. Joint interfaces are sealed flush using silicone-compatible profiles, providing smooth, non-porous surfaces that withstand aggressive chemical washdowns and daily sanitization.

Q: What is the maximum unsupported span length for wall and roof panels under wind load?

A: Span capability depends on panel thickness, facing gauge, core material, and local wind pressure requirements. For example, a 100 mm PIR wall panel with 0.5 mm steel facings under a 1.0 kPa wind load can typically achieve clear spans of up to 4.0 to 5.0 meters between structural girts. Detailed span-load calculation tables are provided for every project configuration.

Q: What is the Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) and production lead time for custom container orders?

A: Standard Production MOQ: 500 m2 per panel thickness and color specification.
Custom Color / Non-Standard Thickness MOQ: 1,000 m2 per specification.
Production Lead Time: 12 to 18 calendar days from shop drawing confirmation and deposit receipt to container loading.
