PIR Composite Air Duct

PIR Composite Air Duct is a lightweight, pre-insulated sandwich panel with aluminum foil facings and a rigid polyurethane foam core. Designed for HVAC systems, it offers superior thermal insulation (0.02 W/m·k), energy efficiency, and quick installation, directly replacing traditional metal ductwork that requires separate lagging .

Service Life, Environmental Protection and Hygiene of PIR Composite Air Duct

Durability Data

Stable cyclic macromolecular PIR structure limits thermal conductivity deterioration to ≤5% over 25 years, with a service life of 20–25 years. Galvanized steel ducts corrode and leak within 5–8 years; rock wool pulverises and fails in 5 years. Life-cycle replacement costs drop by 70%.

Environmental Performance

Zero formaldehyde, benzene emissions and asbestos-free. Production foaming loss is only 3%, and waste scraps are recyclable. Eligible for LEED and China Three-Star Green Building certification credits.

Cleanroom Hygiene Performance

Double-sided smooth antibacterial aluminium foil lowers airflow resistance by 12% and prevents dust and mould build-up. Suitable for food factories and hospital operating room purification ventilation. No extra antibacterial lining needed, with zero extra consumable costs for clean projects.

Fire protection, durability and operation and maintenance costs of PIR Composite Air Duct

Fire Safety

PIR foam core: Class B1 flame retardant; aluminium foil surface: A1 non-combustible. Low smoke output and no dripping while burning. Complies with BS 476 and EN 13501, ideal for high fire-risk sites: data centres, subways and hospitals.

Long Service Life

Strong corrosion resistance. 95% strength retained after 720 hours acid/alkali immersion; no rust or pulverisation. Designed service life: 20 years. Galvanized steel ducts rust easily (5–8 years lifespan); phenolic ducts crack within 3–5 years.

Lower O&M Costs

Built-in moisture and corrosion resistance; no yearly rust removal and repainting required. Annual maintenance cost equals only 30% of traditional ducts. Low air leakage lessens load on main units, cutting fan loss and maintenance frequency. Total life-cycle costs are reduced by 30%–40%.

Packaging and Loading of Duct Panel

PRE-INSULATED DUCT vs G.I. DUCTWORK

Metric	20mm PIR Pre - Insulated Duct (with 0.08mm Alu. Foil, )	0.5mm G.I Duct + 30mm Rubber Plastic (40-90kg/m³)
Fire Safety	Compliant (Class 0/BS 476, AS 1530.3). Self-extinguishing PIR core, low toxic smoke, non-combustible alu foil.	G.I non-combustible; rubber plastic fire-retardant but requires coating to meet strict codes.G.I
Thermal Insulation	Excellent. λ=0.020 W/m·K, no thermal bridging. 20mm integrated structure ensures consistent insulation.	Fair. λ=0.035 W/m·K, thermal bridging at G.I joints. 30mm insulation offset by metal conductivity.
Hygiene & Air Quality	Superior. Non-porous alu foil, smooth inner surface, moisture-resistant PIR. Meets cleanroom/hospital standards.	Poor. Porous rubber plastic traps dust/mold; G.I-insulation gaps breed pathogens.
Lightweight	1.4-1.5 kg/m². Ultra-light, reduces structural load; ideal for retrofits/timber-framed buildings.	5.1–6.3 kg/m². Heavy G.I base + bulk insulation; requires reinforced supports.
Energy Efficiency	Excellent. 20–30% lower HVAC energy consumption. Minimizes heat gain/loss in conditioned air.	Low. 20–30% higher energy loss due to inferior insulation and thermal bridging.
Ease of Construction	Easy. Factory-prefabricated tongue-and-groove joints. No separate insulation step; 40–60% less labor time.	Complex. Two-step on-site process: G.I duct fabrication + rubber plastic wrapping. Labor-intensive, prone to gaps.
Quiet Operation	Good. PIR core absorbs 10–15 dB airflow noise; alu foil dampens vibration.	Fair. Rubber plastic provides basic sound reduction, but G.I vibration and insulation gaps reduce efficiency.
Space Savings	Excellent. 20mm total thickness (all-in-one). Fits tight ceilings/retrofit cavities.	Poor. 30.5mm total thickness (0.5mm G.I + 30mm insulation). Bulky, requires larger installation space.
Environmental Friendliness	Balanced. CFC/HCFC-free PIR, recyclable alu foil. 20–30-year lifespan; net carbon positive in 1–3 years.	Low. Rubber plastic non-recyclable; 10–15-year lifespan. Frequent replacement increases waste; higher energy emissions.
Air Leakage	Superior. ≤2% air leakage (EN 1507, AS/NZS 3660.1). Airtight factory joints + alu foil vapor barrier.	Poor. 5–10% air leakage. On-site sealing gaps; separate vapor barrier required.
