Insulation Panel : Overview
An insulation panel is an external layer installed outside the tank panels, providing thermal protection without interfering with the tank’s structural integrity. Unlike built-in foam insulation, our panels are removable, replaceable, and customizable —making maintenance and upgrades simpler and more cost-effective.
Our Recommended Insulation Material Structure
✅Top & Side Panels
Material: Polyurethane (PU) Foam + Steel Color Plate
Thickness: 5 cm total
Why It Works:
PU foam offers one of the highest R-values (thermal resistance) among common insulating materials.
The steel color plate provides a robust, weather-resistant exterior that is also visually clean and professional.
This combination ensures excellent heat retention in winter and keeps water cool in summer.
✅ Bottom Panels
Material: Rubber Foam Insulation
Why It Works:
Due to installation constraints and contact with foundations, the bottom requires a more flexible and moisture-resistant material.
Rubber foam (elastomeric foam) is perfect for these areas—it’s resilient, offers good thermal performance, and handles compression well.
Why This Combination Is the Best Available
1-Superior Thermal Performance
PU foam has a closed-cell structure that minimizes heat transfer and avoids moisture absorption. When paired with a steel exterior, it creates a long-lasting, efficient insulation system far better than ordinary materials.
2-Durability & Weather Resistance
The steel color plate protects against UV rays, rain, wind, and physical impact, ensuring the insulation remains effective for years.
3-Clean, Professional Appearance
The steel exterior gives the tank a tidy, industrial look that blends well into commercial and municipal settings.
Alternative Option (Not Recommended)
Some suppliers may offer 5cm Rubber Foam + Aluminum Foil Cloth as an alternative. While it provides basic insulation, it has notable drawbacks:
–Lower thermal efficiency compared to PU foam.
–Less durable exterior—aluminum foil cloth can tear or degrade over time.
–Less aesthetically pleasing and may not meet visual standards for professional installations.
We generally do not recommend this option unless under specific budget or temporary scenarios.
Insulation Panel: Installation
Panels are manufactured to match your tank’s dimensions.
1-They are mounted externally over the tank walls.
2-Joints and seams are sealed to prevent thermal bridging.
3-Bottom insulation is fitted according to foundation type.
We provide CAD drawings, installation guides, and can recommend experienced installers in your region.
Conclusion
When it comes to storing potable water, fire-fighting reserves, or industrial liquids in varying climates, thermal insulation is not optional—it’s essential. we specialize in exporting high-performance sectional panel water tanks equipped with advanced, multi-layer insulation systems designed to maintain water temperature, prevent condensation, and ensure year-round operational reliability.
