Cleanroom Sandwich Panel Specification: Thickness, Width, Density & Performance Requirements
? 1. Standard Dimensions of a Cleanroom Sandwich Panel
Parameter | Standard Value | Custom Range |
|---|---|---|
Panel Width | 1150mm (effective) | 950–1200mm |
Panel Length | 2–12m (custom cut) | Up to 15m |
Thickness | 50mm, 75mm, 100mm | 40–200mm |
Skin Thickness | 0.5mm (wall), 0.6mm (ceiling) | 0.4–1.0mm |
How to Choose Panel Thickness:
Thickness | Best For |
|---|---|
50mm | Interior partitions, dry cleanrooms (ISO 7/8) |
75mm | Standard walls, moderate insulation |
100mm | Cleanroom sandwich panel for pharmaceutical, exterior walls, cold rooms |
150mm | Cold storage (-25°C), high-insulation requirements |
200mm | Extreme cold storage, freezer rooms |
⚖️ 2. Core Density: The Hidden Specification
Core density is the most commonly under-specified parameter. A cleanroom sandwich panel with low-density core will sag, delaminate, and lose fire rating.
Minimum Core Density by Type:
Core Type | Minimum Density | Recommended Density |
|---|---|---|
Rockwool | 100 kg/m³ | 120–150 kg/m³ |
PIR | 35 kg/m³ | 40–45 kg/m³ |
MgO | 900 kg/m³ | 1000–1200 kg/m³ |
Aluminum Honeycomb | 80 kg/m³ | 100–120 kg/m³ |
How to Verify Density:
Weigh a sample: Cut a 1m × 1m sample and weigh it
Check the mill cert: The supplier should provide density data
Visual inspection: Low-density rockwool looks fluffy and compresses easily
? 3. Performance Requirements by Cleanroom Class

? 4. Special Specifications for Cold Rooms
For cold storage, the specification changes significantly:
Parameter | Cold Room (-25°C) | Pharmaceutical Cold Chain (2–8°C) |
|---|---|---|
Core | Cleanroom sandwich panel with PIR core | Cleanroom sandwich panel with PIR core |
Thickness | 150mm | 100mm |
Skin | PVDF-coated steel (0.5mm) | Cleanroom sandwich panel with stainless steel (0.5mm) |
Joint | Cam-lock with gasket | Cleanroom sandwich panel with flush joint |
Floor | Reinforced bottom skin (0.8mm) | Reinforced bottom skin (0.8mm) |
