MetecnoPanel (PIR)
Description

MetecnoPanel is a lightweight sandwich panel with a built in PIR fire resistant core. MetecnoPanel employs a specifically designed labyrinth joint to ensure excellent insulation to insulation contact. The MetecnoPanel metal to metal joint on each side has been engineered to ensure positive sealing in cold storage applications.

MetecnoPanel is available in a variety of thicknesses and three different finishes. Durable and aesthetically attractive, MetecnoPanel wall and ceiling panels provide high thermal resistance, mechanical resistance and dimensional stability.
