Insulated panel installation for cold rooms, freezer rooms and commercial cold storage. Glotech Group installs panels, doors and insulated room structures.

Insulated Panels for Cold Rooms, Freezer Rooms and Commercial Cold Storage

Glotech Group supplies and installs insulated panels for cold rooms, freezer rooms and commercial cold storage areas. We help businesses build practical, hygienic and temperature-controlled spaces for chilled and frozen storage.

Insulated panels are one of the most important parts of any cold room or freezer room. The panels form the walls and ceiling of the room, helping to reduce heat transfer, support temperature stability and protect the refrigeration system from unnecessary strain.

Whether you need panels for a new cold room, a walk-in freezer, a chiller room, a production area or a replacement panel project, Glotech Group can assist with professional insulated panel installation.

Call Glotech Group on 067 153 8332 or request a site assessment for your insulated panel installation.

Insulated Panel Types & Thicknesses We Offer

Glotech Group supplies and installs different insulated panel options depending on the cold storage application, required temperature, room size and project budget. The right panel type and thickness helps improve temperature stability, reduce heat gain and support long-term performance.

Polyurethane Panels

Polyurethane panels are commonly used for cold rooms, freezer rooms and commercial cold storage areas where strong insulation performance is required. They are suitable for businesses that need reliable temperature control and a durable insulated room structure.

Polystyrene Panels

Polystyrene panels can be used for selected chilled storage applications, partitioning and cost-sensitive cold room projects where the operating requirements are suitable. We advise on whether polystyrene panels are appropriate based on the room temperature, usage and site conditions.

PU / PIR Sandwich Panels

PU and PIR sandwich panels are used for insulated cold storage structures where strength, hygiene and thermal performance are important. These panels are commonly used in commercial and industrial cold rooms, freezer rooms, food production areas and controlled storage environments.

Panel Thickness Options

We offer insulated panels in different thicknesses depending on the application:

50mm insulated panels are suitable for selected chilled areas, partitioning and temperature-controlled spaces where lighter insulation is acceptable.

100mm insulated panels are commonly used for standard cold rooms, chiller rooms and commercial chilled storage applications.

125mm insulated panels provide stronger insulation for more demanding cold storage requirements and can be suitable where improved temperature control is needed.

150mm insulated panels are commonly used for freezer rooms, low-temperature storage and applications where stronger insulation is required to reduce heat gain.

We recommend the correct panel thickness based on the required temperature, product type, room size, door usage and whether the room is for chilled or frozen storage.

Insulated Panel Installation Cost

The cost of insulated panel installation depends on the size of the room, panel thickness, insulation type, temperature requirement, door requirements, site access and the complexity of the installation.

A small chiller room panel installation will not cost the same as a larger freezer room or industrial cold storage structure. Freezer rooms normally require thicker panels and more careful sealing because they operate at lower temperatures.

The main factors that affect insulated panel installation cost include:

Room size and height
Panel thickness
Insulation type
Cold room or freezer room application
Wall and ceiling requirements
Floor insulation requirements
Number and type of doors
Site access
Existing structure or new build
Panel cutting and fitting requirements
Trims, closures and sealing
Hygiene or wash-down requirements
After-hours or staged installation requirements

For an accurate price, Glotech Group will need to assess the site, room size, operating temperature and intended use of the space.

Why Insulated Panel Installation Matters

Insulated panels affect the performance of the entire cold storage system. Even a correctly sized refrigeration unit can struggle if the room has poor insulation, air leaks or weak sealing.

Proper insulated panel installation: helps improve temperature stability, lower heat gain, reduce compressor strain, increase energy efficiency, support better hygiene, minimise condensation and ice build-up, extend system life, and maintain more reliable storage conditions.

The panel structure should be planned together with the refrigeration requirement so the room performs properly once it is in daily use.

How We Install Insulated Panels

Our simple 4-step installation process.

1. Site Assessment & Measurements

We assess the installation area, available space, access, floor condition, height, layout and intended use of the room. Accurate measurements help us plan the panel layout and identify any site requirements before installation.

2. Panel Specification & Layout

We recommend the panel thickness, door position, wall layout, ceiling structure and finishing requirements based on the room purpose and temperature range. This helps ensure the insulated structure is suitable for the application.

3.Panel Installation & Sealing

The insulated panels are installed to form the room structure. We pay careful attention to panel joints, corners, trims, doors and sealing points to reduce air leaks and improve temperature performance.

4. Final Checks and Handover

Once installed, we check the panel structure, door fitment, sealing, alignment and general finish. The room is then ready for refrigeration installation, commissioning or business use, depending on the project scope.

Our Insulated Panel Installation Services

A well-built cold storage room starts with the correct insulated panel structure. Poor panel installation can lead to air leaks, temperature loss, condensation, ice build-up, damaged seals and higher running costs.

Glotech Group installs insulated panels for commercial and industrial environments where hygiene, durability and temperature control matter.

Cold Room Panel Installation

We install insulated panels for new cold rooms, chiller rooms and cool rooms. These panels help create a controlled chilled storage space for food, beverages, ingredients, fresh produce and other temperature-sensitive products.

Cold room panels must be fitted correctly to reduce air leaks, support stable temperatures and create a clean, practical storage environment.

Freezer Room Panel Installation

Freezer rooms require stronger insulation and careful sealing because they operate at lower temperatures. We install insulated freezer room panels for walk-in freezer rooms, frozen storage areas and commercial freezer applications.

Correct freezer panel installation helps reduce ice build-up, temperature loss and unnecessary load on the refrigeration system.

Cold Storage Panel Installation

We install insulated panels for commercial cold storage areas used in food production, hospitality, retail, warehousing and distribution. These spaces may be used for holding stock, preparing products, dispatch staging or controlled storage.

The panel layout is planned around access, workflow, hygiene and the required temperature range.

Insulated Wall and Ceiling Panels

We install insulated wall and ceiling panels to form the structure of cold rooms, freezer rooms and controlled storage areas. Panel thickness and insulation type are selected according to the application and operating temperature.

The right panel system improves room performance and helps the refrigeration equipment work more efficiently.

Cold Room Door & Panel Fitting

A cold room or freezer room is only as good as its sealing points. We can assist with cold room doors, freezer room doors, panel joints, trims, closures, seals and related fittings.

Correct door and panel fitting helps prevent warm air entering the room and reduces long-term performance problems.

Replacement & Upgrade Panels

If existing panels are damaged, poorly sealed, outdated or no longer suitable, Glotech Group can assist with replacement or upgrade work. This may be useful when a business is expanding, improving hygiene, upgrading insulation or repairing damaged cold room structures.
