A Lightweight Solution for Structural Insulation-Foam Sandwich Panel
Sandwich panels, also known as composite panels, are a popular construction material used in a variety of applications such as aerospace, transportation, and construction. Sandwich panels consist of two external layers, usually made of metal or fiberglass, and an inner core material, which provides structural integrity and insulation. One type of sandwich panel that has gained popularity in recent years is the foam sandwich panel.
Foam sandwich panels have a core made of foam material, which can be polystyrene, polyurethane, or polyethylene, sandwiched between two layers of steel metal. The foam core provides thermal and acoustic insulation, while the external layers offer structural support. Together, they make a lightweight yet strong composite material that is easy to install and maintain.

How big is a foam sandwich panel?
The width of the sandwich panel is usually 950 mm. The length of the sandwich panel can be adjusted according to the needs of each project, the most common dimensions being between 3 and 6 meters, but, in some cases, a maximum length of up to 16 meters can be reached. The thicknesses of these panels can vary enormously depending on the final application, the most common values being between 40 and 150-200 mm thick depending on the application.
Foam sandwich panels for facades have been improved for the construction of enclosures in homes, schools, hospitals, industrial centers, or shopping centers. Sandwich panels can also be found for interior partitions that require insulation.
The advantages offered by these façade panels depend to a large extent on the method of joining between panels. The fastening system is implemented in a tongue-and-groove manner, ensuring adequate protection, and preventing the dissipation of heat and humidity.
Sandwich panels are one of the most economical insulation solutions, with greater durability, shorter installation time, less need for maintenance and greater capacity for acoustic and thermal insulation. In addition, they can be adapted to all building needs and typologies, with different types of panels for each case.
The characteristics of foam sandwich panels for roofs differ from façade panels in that they will have to withstand large amounts of snow, rain, and other climatic factors.
They are fixed to the structure with self-drilling screws, to prevent leakage in case of rain and humidity, and are often combined with sealing joints, which speed up installation without sacrificing the insulation layer.

Sandwich Panel Insulation Type Selection Guide
The functions and needs of every building are different. Sandwich panel choice thus varies according to the thermal, acoustic, and hydro insulation and fire resistance needs of your building. Selecting the insulation core in accordance with the need of your building positively affects the performance you will obtain from the sandwich panel.
You can select the insulation material suitable for the features and needs of your building from the Sandwich Panel Selection Table we prepared for you.
One of the key benefits of foam sandwich panels is their lightweight nature. Their low weight makes them ideal for situations where weight reduction is critical, such as aircraft or vehicle construction. This is because the foam core, which typically makes up the majority of the panel's volume, is very low in density.
Another advantage of foam sandwich panels is their excellent insulation properties. The foam core effectively insulates against heat, cold, and sound, making them an excellent choice for building insulation or soundproofing. The insulation properties of foam sandwich panels also make them an energy-efficient option, as they reduce the need for heating and cooling systems, resulting in cost savings for the end-user.
Given their lightweight and insulation properties, foam sandwich panels are an eco-friendly choice for many construction applications. They reduce the overall weight of buildings, vehicles, or aircraft, which in turn leads to lower fuel consumption and less CO2 emissions. Additionally, their insulation ability reduces the need for power-hungry heating and cooling systems, reducing energy consumption and carbon emissions.
