The 100mm PIR insulated aluminum roof panel is the most specified panel thickness in GCC and ASEAN industrial projects. It meets UAE Estidama energy performance requirements (U ≤ 0.25 W/m²K), satisfies SASO 2093 thermal recommendations for Saudi Arabia, and cuts roof-related cooling load by approximately 27% compared to the 75mm variant.

Energy Savings: 100mm PIR vs No Insulation

On a 5,000 m² air-conditioned warehouse in Dubai (ambient summer average 35°C, chiller COP 3.0, electricity USD 0.10/kWh):

Roof Type Annual Cooling Energy (roof) Annual Cost
Bare steel (U = 5.8) 627,000 kWh USD 62,700
75mm PIR (U = 0.30) 32,400 kWh USD 3,240
100mm PIR (U = 0.22) 23,800 kWh USD 2,380

The premium for 100mm vs 75mm panels (typically USD 1.50–2.00/m² extra, or USD 7,500–10,000 on 5,000 m²) is recovered in under 12 months through reduced chiller operating cost.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the U-value of a 100mm PIR panel?

About 0.22 W/m2K, making it the standard choice for air-conditioned warehouses and factories.

When should I choose 100mm over 75mm?

Choose 100mm for any air-conditioned or temperature-sensitive building – the better thermal performance pays back through lower cooling costs in hot climates.

How much does a 100mm panel weigh?

Approximately 8 kg/m2 with a 0.5mm aluminum face.
