What are IMP's?
Insulated metal panels (IMPs) have been around for several years and continue to play an important role in building construction as they offer many benefits and incentives. They consist of two single-skin metal panels and a foamed-in-place core. The foam insulation is made of non-chlorofluorocarbon (non-CFC) polyisocyanurate foam.
IMPs are sealed to each other at the side laps and to the substructure at all perimeter boundaries. The special foam insulation of IMPs offers superior R-values that prove enhanced energy performance for buildings utilizing our products.
| IMPs are an ideal solution for many of your project needs, including temperature-controlled buildings. |
The strength of IMPs and the thermal resistance properties of foam insulation are great reasons for using them in your building projects. Not only are they strong enough to allow for fewer structural supports in many cases, but they are also fire, wind, hail, water, insect and rodent resistant.
IPS panels qualify as Continuous Air Barriers (CABs) and have been tested for air infiltration and, when properly detailed and installed, are able to function as CABs with their unique self-sealing side joints.
Our insulated metal panels interlock to exclude thermal breaks and provide superior resistance to air and moisture intrusion. IPS’ FWP, IPP II, EWP II, Sonora™ and ESP II insulated wall panels and IBL insulated roof panel are attached to the structure of the building with concealed clips to eliminate thermal short circuits.
