Description
Insulated metal panels (IMP) use metal skins with either PIR foam or mineral wool cores. PIR panels commonly declare thermal conductivity around 0.022 W/m?K (Kingspan panel data), while mineral wool core panels list thermal conductivity about 0.033 W/m?K and density around 100 kg/m? with A1 non?combustible classification (manufacturer mineral wool panel data).
