SANDWICH PANELS

There are many reasons why you should choose to use sandwich panels for your residential or commercial property. In fact, composite panels have several benefits that are advantageous for homeowners and business owners alike. 

For example, sandwich wall systems are very strong, they provide good insulation, and they come in a variety of sizes. Additionally, sandwich roofs offer several advantages over traditional roofing materials. 

At String Lights Outdoor, we recommend sandwich roofs and walls for many reasons. In this article, our property enhancement experts explore all of these benefits in more detail.

What are Composite Panels Used For?

Composite panels are most commonly used as an insulation layer in walls and roofs. In fact, they are often referred to as “sandwich panels” because they are two layers of material with a filling in between. 

 

The most common type of filling is a foam core, but there are also honeycomb, mineral wool, and fiberglass options. Composite panels can be attached to the outside of a building or used as an internal partition.

What’s the Main Reason for Using a Sandwich Wall System?

The main reason to use composite panels in your construction project is for their exceptional strength. When compared to other types of construction materials, composite panels have a much higher strength-to-weight ratio. 

 

This means that they can support a greater load without adding unnecessary weight to the structure. In addition, composite panels are non-combustible and resist most types of damage, making them an ideal choice for both residential and commercial properties.

Reduce Energy Costs by Helping Your AC

One of the main reasons for using a sandwich wall system is to reduce energy costs. By installing an insulated wall panel, you can help your AC to work more efficiently and keep your property cooler in the summertime.

 

This makes them perfect for use with a bioclimatic pergola to take control of your home (or business) climate. In addition to their property enhancing features, they make any space feel warm and welcoming.

Why are Sandwich Panels So Strong?

One of the reasons that sandwich panels are so strong is because of the way they are constructed. The two layers of material are bonded together with an adhesive, which creates a very strong bond. 

In addition, the foam core provides rigidity and strength to the panel. The combination of these factors makes sandwich panels one of the strongest types of construction materials available.

What is the Size of an Insulated Wall Panel?

Composite panels are available in a range of thicknesses to suit the specific needs of your project. The most common thicknesses are 4 inches and 6 inches, but panels as thin as 1 inch and as thick as 12 inches are also available.

Best of all, at String Lights Outdoor, you can commission a bespoke sandwich panel system to suit your specific needs. That way, you aren’t constrained by the limitations of pre-constructed, uniform panels.
