Aisle containment panels and roofs play a critical role in improving data center cooling efficiency by separating hot and cold air streams. The materials used for these enclosures must be strong, lightweight, and durable, while also maintaining visibility and a clean, professional appearance. Performance plastics are ideal for these applications because they offer high impact resistance, corrosion resistance, and design flexibility without the added weight of metal alternatives.
Twinwall polycarbonate is commonly used for roof sections and larger panel areas due to its lightweight structure and rigidity. Its internal ribbed design provides strength while reducing overall weight, making it easier to handle and install overhead. For areas requiring greater durability and clarity, monolithic (solid) polycarbonate is often selected. It offers excellent impact resistance and clear visibility, making it well suited for doors, high-traffic panels, and viewing sections.
Together, these plastic materials help data centers maintain efficient airflow management while supporting long-term performance and ease of installation. Contact Piedmont Plastics today to get started!
