In the food processing industry, where hygiene, temperature stability, and regulatory compliance are non-negotiable, PermaTherm’s PermaCore™ Insulated Metal Panels set a new standard. That new standard is the application of a manufacturing technology called PermaShield. PermaTherm utilizes this technology to effectively machine-fit all panel joints.The foam provides the R-Value but Permatherm provides the fit. This is critical for cleanliness standards, as well as durability in wash-down environments and long-term service. Whether you operate a ready-to-eat (RTE) processing plant, a brewery, winery, bottling facility, or vegetable bagging operation, full-scale dairy, or a cut and cook facility for meat production, we provide the panels that keep your business safe and efficient.
We have been there, with every customer at each expansion. PermaTherm’s insulated metal panels are engineered to solve the toughest issues in food-grade facilities, from hygiene to durability and thermal control.
