100 mm LIGHT mineral wool roof sandwich panel, grade 1

Mineral wool core sandwich panels are often chosen where the building envelope must meet fire protection and acoustic comfort requirements. A finished panel combines wool with metal facings and can form an attractive wall for a hall, warehouse or commercial building. SteelProfil helps relate the properties of a particular panel to the building’s use and design requirements.

Mineral wool is non-combustible, but the fire performance of a finished wall depends on the complete system. Panel type, thickness, span, joint arrangement and fixing method all matter. Selection against the project specification makes it possible to use the core’s benefits in the appropriate part of the building. These panels merit consideration for separating production areas, enclosing industrial buildings and constructing partitions with a specified fire resistance.

The fibrous core can also contribute to noise control. Acoustic performance must nevertheless be assessed using the data for the particular panel and the construction of the complete partition. In a hall containing a workshop, doors, industrial doors and wall junctions matter too. We help select material suited to the intended function, rather than considering colour alone. The appearance of the facing remains an important part of a well-planned building envelope.

Prefabricated panels combine technical building requirements with a consistent surface finish. Metal facings protect the insulation, while repeating modules simplify façade planning. Because of their weight, these panels must suit the intended structure and installation arrangements. Their benefits can therefore be used both in new halls and when upgrading a particular part of an existing plant. Coordinated facing colours can bring areas with different technical requirements together in a visually unified façade.

• A non-combustible core supports the selection of systems for buildings with fire protection requirements.
• A suitably selected panel can help reduce sound transmission through the building envelope.
• Factory-finished facings provide an even, visually consistent wall surface.

When discussing an order, we compare thickness, documentation and facing type with the building’s operating conditions. SteelProfil’s broad range includes first- and second-grade panels and materials available from stock. Availability of the particular mineral wool version is checked when the offer is prepared. For second-grade batches, the precise characteristics of the material and its suitability for the planned partition are important.

Our competitive prices and promotional offers also help source the remaining envelope materials economically. Send us the requirements in the design and the wall and roof layout. We will compare suitable mineral wool panels and include accessories for finishing the joints. This directs the budget towards the properties actually needed and produces a clear quotation for the selected scope of work.
