Sandwich Panel Features, Advantages and Application Areas

Fast and Easy Installation

Contrary to the traditional systems, continuous line manufactured sandwich panels are in fully compatible and ready to assemble pieces that are prepared in the required dimensions, insulation types and colors based on the structure of your facility, with engineering and quality control processes conducted beforehand at the factory.

Installation of the sandwich panels is very easy with the few joints on wide surfaces. By means of advanced transport opportunities and mechanical lifting equipment, the duration of carrying and cladding is remarkably shortened. Therefore, your project is delivered in a short span of period, allowing you to save time.


Perfect Thermal Insulation

Thermal insulation means reducing the energy spent in winter for warming and in summer for cooling; and taking measures to prevent heat transmission with the objective to live in comfortable environments. Sandwich panel is a building material, which is very suitable for thermal insulation.

Sandwich panel provides high thermal insulation by means of PUR, PIR, EPS and Mineral Wool insulation materials. Thermal insulation with sandwich panels prevents problems such as mold and humidity resulting from heat movements and condensation, and ensures your building to be robust and long-lasting. Thickness of the insulation material in the sandwich panel varies according to the load bearing capacity, regional conditions, the usage purpose of the building, and the thermal insulation value.


Investment Economy

In many types of buildings, you can save up on both building and installation time by selecting the appropriate sandwich panel. Thanks to its feature of easy mounting, you can conduct expansion and renovation works without interrupting everyday activities in the building. Moreover, the panels are both economic and practical as they can be disassembled and reused.


The lightness of sandwich panels allows you to gain advantage with regards to transport and main building costs. Also, their maintenance costs are low thanks to their durable structure.

In brief, sandwich panel is both a fast and aesthetic solution and budget-friendly for its longevity.


Aesthetic Appearance of Your Buildings

The outlook of your building is just like the mirror of your dreams. That is why we add new ideas to our sandwich panels every day for the aesthetic of your buildings. You can enliven the outer walls of your building and obtain an aesthetic appearance with the sandwich panels designed in different colors and in a structure that enables them to be positioned horizontally, vertically or angular. Thanks to their feature to be used in the internal sections as well, you can create different designs with the sandwich panels.


High Fire Resistance

If you choose a sandwich panel fit for your building in terms of fire insulation, you will be able to slow down the spreading of fire within the building and its surroundings, and to ensure the safety of life and property in the building.

While choosing sandwich panels for fire insulation, you should take into consideration the factors such as fire resistance and its duration, as well as the size and height of your building, and prefer sandwich panels with Mineral Wool or FM-approved PIR-cores.


Air and Water Tightness

Thanks to their perfect joint detail, Teknopanel sandwich panels prevent air and water leakage. While they ensure the continuity of thermal insulation, heat is not lost at any point of your building. Therefore, you take the heating and cooling in your building under control and ensure energy efficiency.


With a watertight structure, sandwich panels ensure active hydro-insulation against natural conditions such as snow and rain, and prevent humidity and mold. As they hinder corrosion on the load-bearing structures, they provide a healthy and comfortable environment in your building. Your building becomes stronger and more durable.

Noise-Free Buildings

Sound insulation is a must in order to minimize the harmful effects of noise on humans, to leave out the unwanted sounds, and to reduce the sound spreading around from noisy areas.

With their mineral wool insulation core and perforated sheet metal surface that lead to sound insulation features, acoustic sandwich panels used on the roof and walls increase productivity by creating healthy and comfortable spaces free from noise and prevent workplace accidents.

What is the thickness of sandwich panel roof?

When it comes to constructing a roof using sandwich panels, the thickness of the panels plays a pivotal role in determining the performance and characteristics of the roof. Sandwich panel roofs are extensively used in the construction industry due to their superior thermal insulation, structural integrity, and ease of installation.

Sandwich panel roofs consist of two outer layers and a core material sandwiched in between. The outer layers are typically made of steel or aluminum, while the core material is often composed of insulation materials such as polyurethane foam, polystyrene foam, or mineral wool. The thickness of the sandwich panel roof is determined by the specific requirements of the building and the intended use of the roof.

In general, the thickness of sandwich panel roofs can range from 30mm to 150mm, with common thicknesses falling within the range of 40mm to 100mm. The choice of thickness depends on factors such as the climate conditions of the area, the desired level of thermal insulation, and the structural requirements of the building.

For regions with moderate climates, a thickness of around 40mm to 60mm might be sufficient to provide adequate thermal insulation. However, in areas with extreme weather conditions, a thicker panel with insulation properties in the range of 80mm to 100mm might be more suitable to ensure effective temperature regulation and energy efficiency.

It’s important to note that the thickness of the sandwich panel roof also impacts its load-bearing capacity and structural stability. Thicker panels offer higher strength and load-bearing capabilities, making them suitable for larger spans and heavier loads. Therefore, when designing a roof using sandwich panels, it’s essential to consult structural engineers and adhere to building codes and regulations to ensure the roof can withstand the expected loads and meet safety requirements.

In conclusion, the thickness of a sandwich panel roof can vary based on factors such as climate, thermal insulation requirements, and structural considerations. Choosing the right thickness is vital to achieve optimal thermal performance, structural integrity, and energy efficiency in the building. Consulting professionals and adhering to local building regulations will help ensure the roof meets the necessary standards and offers lasting protection for the structure beneath.
