Cooler Panels

What Are Cooler Panels?

Cooler panels are interlocking high-density foam insulation panels used to construct the walls and ceiling of a walk-in cooler. Because they interlock rather than ship as a single preassembled box, a business can build a cooler to exact dimensions rather than settling for the nearest standard size, and can expand an existing cooler later by adding panels.

How Thick Should My Cooler Panels Be?

Cooler panels are typically available in 4" and 5" thicknesses. A 4" panel provides sufficient insulation for standard refrigerated temperatures and suits most cooler applications. A 5" panel adds extra insulation value, which can reduce energy costs further or suit installations where ambient temperatures around the cooler run warmer than average.

Why Choose Insulated Cooler Panels Over a Prefabricated Box?

Panel-built coolers let a business match the structure to its actual space and inventory needs, rather than working around a fixed prefabricated size. They're also energy efficient, since the interlocking foam core insulation limits heat transfer and helps maintain a consistent interior temperature, which reduces both energy costs and spoilage risk from temperature swings.
