PU core sandwich panels used in construction and industrial fields

Polyurethane PU core sandwich panels are widely used in construction and industrial applications due to their high thermal insulation, lightweight properties, and structural strength. These panels consist of a rigid PU foam core sandwiched between two outer layers, typically made of metal (such as galvanized steel, aluminum, or stainless steel), fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP), or other composite materials.

1. Key Features of PU Core Sandwich Panels

✅ Excellent Thermal Insulation – PU foam has a low thermal conductivity (~0.022 W/mK), reducing energy loss.
✅ Lightweight Yet Strong – High strength-to-weight ratio for structural applications.
✅ Fire Resistance (with Additives) – Some panels have fire-retardant properties to meet safety standards.
✅ Moisture and Chemical Resistance – Ideal for humid and corrosive environments.
✅ Quick & Easy Installation – Prefabricated panels allow for fast assembly with minimal labor.
✅ Acoustic Insulation – Helps in noise reduction, suitable for factories and industrial zones.

2. Applications in Construction & Industrial Fields

Construction Industry

  • Residential & Commercial Buildings – Used for walls, roofs, and ceilings in energy-efficient homes and office spaces.
  • Cold Storage & Refrigeration – Ideal for freezer rooms, cold storage warehouses, and refrigerated trucks due to superior insulation.
  • Prefabricated & Modular Buildings – Quick-assembly houses and temporary structures benefit from PU core sandwich panels.
  • Clean Rooms & Laboratories – Provides hygienic, airtight environments for pharmaceutical and medical industries.

Industrial Applications

  • Factories & Warehouses – Used for insulated walls, partitions, and roofing in industrial buildings.
  • Oil & Gas Facilities – PU core sandwich panels are used in control rooms, shelters, and offshore structures.
  • Energy-Efficient HVAC Systems – Ducting and enclosures in ventilation systems benefit from PU panel insulation.
  • Automotive & Aerospace – PU core sandwich panels are used in lightweight vehicle structures, trailers, and aircraft interiors.

3. Types of PU Core Sandwich Panels

  • Flat PU Panels – Smooth surface, commonly used for cleanrooms and decorative applications.
  • Corrugated PU Panels – Increased rigidity, suitable for roofing and exterior walls.
  • PU Panels with Aluminum Foil – Used in high-humidity environments like cold storage.
  • Fire-Resistant PU Panels – Enhanced with fire-retardant additives for safety compliance.
