POLYPANEL

Polypanel is a tested and proven alternative to sheet metal ducting and components.It is widely accepted and currently in use in major domestic and commercial projects throughout the world. (In the United Arab Emirates, the location of highest rate of building development per capita, Pre insulated Aluminium board has taken over in excess of 50% market share in last 4 years)Comprising closed cell polyisocyanurate foam enclosed in two layers of aluminium textured sheet, this product offers superior features and benefits to both the installer and end user, including light weight, strength, ease of fabrication, low vapour permeability and superior hygiene characteristics. Polypanel Ducting• Can be fitted closer to ceilings than galvanised sheet as no space need be left for insulation cladding. This saves on ceiling cavity height.• Can be fitted to fibrous cement and suspended ceilings due to light weight.• Minor adjustments can often be made on site without the need to fabricate a new section in the factory. This saves both time and money.• Requires less machinery to position in place due to light weight. Where can you use Polypanel?• Hospitals• Commercial high rise buildings• Wineries• Domestic buildings and apartments• Pharmaceutical Cleanrooms• Factories/ Commercial Offices• Anywhere where indoor air quality is important and/or when you have installation, schedule and cost constraints.

ALUMINIUM EXTERIOR OF THE DUCT Embossed aluminium creates a sturdy exterior which will protect against impact. The lacquer coating increases corrosion resistance.

PIR (Polyisocyanurate) BoardDurable, light & good insulation. ALUMINIUM INTERIOR OF THE DUCT Coated with transluscent lacquer providing low vapour permeability and preventing air pollution within the duct.

Comparison ChartProperties Steel Duct Polypanel Remarks

Insulation Additional insulation required at extra cost to fabricate and install

Pre-insulation sandwich between two aluminium sheets. No extra process required

Pre-insulated Polypanel has better insulation consistency and good vapour barrier

Weight 0.8 gauge: 6.5kg/m² 1.0 gauge: 8.1kg/m²

Polypanel 20/35 = 1.10kg/m² Polypanel 20/45 = 1.30kg/m² Polypanel 30/35 = 1.85kg/m²

Polypanel is less than 25% of steel duct weight. Requires less machinery and manpower to install

Noise High noise generation and transfer Limited reverberation effect GI duct hard surfaces promote sound propagation and resonance. Polypanel tends to absorb rather than reflect sound

Corrosion By water vapour in air Not affected by water vapour Corrosion in GI ducts is even more common in coastal regions

Chemical Rapid corrosion by chemical reaction in air Strong chemical resistance External aluminium surface of Polypanel is coated with lacquer

Installation Hard to cut, bend and install East, light & fast to install Fast fabrication and installation of Polypanel ducts

Maintenance Difficult, requires tradesmen and equipment Easy, Simple tools and simple process to repair, renew or adjust

Blanket insulation for steel ducts may be easily damaged and is difficult & expensive to repair or replace

Durability About 10 years Semi-permanent Polypanel, though lightweight, is remarkably stable

Cost Expensive More effective Price-Quality relationship than GI duct and insulation

Overall Polypanel system is cheaper than GI plus insulation
