Did you know Insulated Panel can be used for far more than just cool rooms?
Insulated panels have a wide range of applications due to their thermal efficiency, compliance, and durability. Below, we explore the most common industry applications, and why insulated panels have varied uses across different industries.
1. Cool Rooms & Freezer Rooms
Cool rooms and freezer rooms rely on insulated panels to maintain stable temperatures, reduce energy consumption, and ensure airtight performance.
Why insulated panels are ideal:
-
Superior thermal efficiency for cold and frozen environments
- Airtight joints for temperature stability
- Moisture-resistant, durable steel finishes
- Fast installation
- Seamless integration with doors, pressure relief ports, and vapour barriers
Typical project examples:
- Supermarket back-of-house cool rooms
- Foodservice freezer rooms
- Brewery cold storage
- Hospitality refrigerated storage rooms

2. Distribution Centres
Large-scale cold storage and logistics facilities require insulated panel systems that perform reliably at scale.
Why insulated panels suit large-scale cold storage and food distribution:
- High thermal performance for large chillers and freezers
- Suitable for high-bay facilities
- Fire-rated solutions for commercial compliance
- Fast installation to reduce downtime and construction periods
Typical project examples:
- Large-scale vegetable and meat distribution centres
- Pharmaceutical distribution warehouses
- Third-party logistics cold storage facilities
- High-bay automated freezer warehouses

3. Food Production & Processing Facilities
Food production environments require hygienic, durable, and thermally stable construction materials. Insulated panels provide sanitary steel surfaces suited to washdowns, heat, moisture, and impact.
Benefits for food processing:
- Hygienic, easy-clean surfaces
- Resistant to moisture and chemicals
- Suitable for temperature-controlled production rooms
- Fast installation and reduced lead times
- Ideal for walls, ceilings, partitions, processing enclosures, doors and windows
Typical project examples:
- Meat, poultry, and seafood processing plants
- Commercial kitchens
- Ready-meal production rooms
- Dairy processing facilities
4. Architectural Cladding & Commercial Facades
Insulated panels are popular in architectural applications thanks to their design flexibility and energy efficiency.
Why architects use insulated panels:
- Modern, clean external appearance
- High thermal performance
- Fast construction period
- Durable, long-lasting finishes
- Non-combustible options where required
- Profiled and coloured surfaces optional
Typical project examples:
- Commercial building façades
- Roofing
- Retail and shopping centre exteriors
- Schools and community centres
- Industrial buildings requiring energy-efficient outer walls

5. Clean Rooms
Clean rooms rely on insulated panels to create controlled, contamination-free environments used in medical, industrial, and high-precision manufacturing sectors.
Why insulated panels are ideal for clean rooms:
- Airtight construction for stable pressure control
- Hygienic, easy-clean surfaces
- Compatible with HEPA filtration systems
- Seamless integration for contaminant reduction
- Suitable for ceilings, walls, partitions, and airlock spaces
Typical project examples:
- Pharmaceutical clean rooms
- Medical device manufacturing facilities
- Laboratory clean rooms
- Electronics facilities
- Cosmetic production environments
