The R-value indicates how effectively a material resists heat transfer. The higher the R-value, the better the insulation. In industrial construction projects, this is a crucial factor: a higher R-value in eco panels means less heat loss in winter and less heat build-up in summer. The result: lower energy costs and a more comfortable internal climate.
How do eco panels perform?
Eco panels are a type of sandwich panel with an insulating core (such as PIR, PUR or mineral wool). The thickness and type of insulation material determine the R-value of the eco panels.
- PIR/PUR eco panels → very high insulation value at a relatively low thickness.
- Mineral wool eco panels → slightly lower R-value, but with additional benefits such as fire resistance and sound insulation.
In practice, this means that eco panels with a thickness of, for example, 100 mm can achieve an R-value of around 4.0 – 5.0 m²K/W (depending on the core and supplier). With thicker panels, the R-value can be higher still.

Advantages of a high R-value in eco panels
- Lower energy costs: a well-insulated building consumes less energy for heating and cooling.
- Sustainable: a high R-value contributes to lower CO₂ emissions and a smaller ecological footprint.
- Comfortable: temperature fluctuations are reduced, improving the working environment.
- Investment security: buildings with good insulation retain their value for longer and more readily comply with future regulations.
