Normal temperature cold rooms keep products at temperatures between -5°C and +15°C and guarantee constant temperature maintenance and low humidity levels, which is why they are widely used in the agri-food sector.

The sandwich panels designed for this type of environment must guarantee excellent thermal insulation performance, as the steam significantly affects the quality of the stored product.

An efficient seal and the absence of thermal bridges are the essential conditions for maintaining uniform conditions on the preserved products.

Key factors for the design and construction of low temperature cold room enclosures (-24 °C – 0 °C) are the effective sealing of external joints and the use of finishes resistant to moisture penetration and the formation of toxic mould or bacterial.

The energy costs incurred for the operation of cold rooms represent a significant part of the overall costs of the cold chain. Alfa King panels, with their high performance in terms of insulation and airtightness and exceptional energy efficiency standards, can minimize energy consumption and operating costs.

In dairy factories, slaughterhouses and where foods of animal origin are processed, great importance must be given to the choice of metal coverings for walls and ceilings, in order to guarantee the quality of the product and compliance with hygiene standards, and to avoid any risk of contamination.

In such environments, characterized by thermally and hygienically complex conditions, Alfa King panels with stainless steel cladding are to be considered the best solution to resist the aggressive effects of milk acid and organic substances.

Alfa King meets the relevant health and hygiene regulations because it guarantees total resistance to mould, is easy to install, thanks to the male/female system with integrated gasket, does not require the use of union profiles and resists corrosion caused by the majority of the chemicals used for deep cleaning.

For all those applications in which, through oxygen reduction, it’s needed to eliminate the risk of fire.

The new trend in the field of safety and prevention sees the construction of intensive warehouses in which, instead of fire protection devices (or in addition to them), prevention systems are installed, i.e. systems that maintain an under-oxygenated atmosphere.
The applications are many.

Some examples:

• Archives.
• IT and electrical cabinets.
• Automated warehouses.
• Hazardous materials storage areas.

The Alfa King panel guarantees absolute air impermeability, keeping the parameters stable within the environments involved.

Clean-rooms – with positive or negative pressure – are environments in which the micro-environmental parameters, inert particle and microbiological contamination are strictly controlled, to guarantee the sterility of the processed products and the safety of the operators.

Commonly used in the food, organic and healthcare sectors, they are now finding increasing application (isolation rooms, laboratories or multi-purpose units also intended for the containment and treatment of Covid-19).

Alfa King is the ideal product for the creation of pharmaceutical, biotechnological, hospital or industrial clean rooms. In the smooth version, and through careful assembly which provides coplanarity of the surfaces and non-porosity – conditions which counteract the formation of bacteria and ensure maximum sterility – it combines insulation, ease of cleaning, resistance to the aggression of decontaminating agents, flexibility and simplicity of assembly.
