Insulated panel system cuts costs

Kingspan Controlled Environments' KS1150 CS insulated panel system has been used to build a £9M extension to a temperature-controlled distribution centre for HSH Coldstores.

This project used 15,000m² of KS1150 CS to upgrade HSH's Birchin Way premises to a capacity of 23,000 pallets.

Suitable for low and high temperature-controlled applications, KS1150 CS offers high thermal performance, maintaining an internal temperature as low as -40°C during external temperatures of up to 40°C. This, coupled with a low air leakage rate of 0.5/m³/m², can help to reduce energy usage and running costs.

Available to specifications approved by both the Loss Prevention Certification Board and Factory Mutual, KS1150 CS Firesafe offers peace of mind regarding fire safety, and is fibre free to ensure no release of fugitive fibres into the internal environment. It is also resistant to moisture ingress and any risk of toxic mould and bacterial growth, a vital factor in a food storage facility such as HSH.
