PUF Panel Thickness Guide for Temperature Requirements

SEO Keyword: PUF panel specifications cold room

Selecting the correct thickness of Polyurethane Foam (PUF) panels is critical to balance structural thermal resistance with equipment capital costs.

Thickness Sizing Recommendations

For standard chilling rooms (0°C to +8°C) such as fruit ripening setups, 60mm or 80mm panels are suitable. Freezer rooms (-15°C to -10°C) require 100mm thickness. Deep freeze chambers (-18°C to -25°C) like ice cream vaults must use 120mm panels to prevent thermal leakage.

Vapor Barrier & cam-lock Joints

Vapor seals are critical. Pre-fabricated cam-locks lock panels together, compressing tongue-and-groove joints to create airtight seams that prevent moisture ingress and internal frosting.
