When factory managers and plant owners plan to build new production zones or renovate existing old factory facilities, one of their top priorities is choosing a partition material that can withstand harsh industrial working conditions while keeping construction cost and time under control. The EPS Cement Sandwich Panel has quickly become the best choice for modern factory plants, solving multiple pain points that traditional brick, concrete block or color steel partitions cannot handle properly.
Unlike thin color steel sandwich panels that deform easily after a few years of usage in industrial environments, the EPS Cement Sandwich Panel uses high density fiber reinforced calcium silicate boards as its surface layers, giving the panel extremely high impact resistance. It will not dent, crack or break even if it is accidentally hit by a forklift, material trolley or heavy industrial parts during daily production operations. This durability is extremely valuable for factory spaces where heavy equipment and goods are moved around every day. Many factories that used ordinary color steel partitions before found that their old partitions needed frequent repair or replacement every 2 to 3 years, but after switching to EPS Cement Sandwich Panel, the partition walls can stay intact for more than 15 years without major maintenance.
The lightweight feature of EPS Cement Sandwich Panel also brings huge benefits for factory renovation projects. Most old factory buildings were built decades ago, and their floor load bearing capacity is limited. If you use heavy brick walls to separate new production zones, you will need to carry out expensive structural reinforcement work on the floor first, which costs a lot of money and takes months to complete. The EPS Cement Sandwich Panel usually weighs less than 45kg per square meter, which will not bring extra structural burden to the old factory floor. This allows you to build new partitions anywhere in the plant without worrying about hidden structural safety risks.
The fast dry installation process of EPS Cement Sandwich Panel also helps factories minimize production downtime during renovation. The prefabricated panels can be assembled quickly on site, no wet cement pouring or long curing time is needed. A 1000 square meter large partition project in a factory can be completed in less than 2 weeks. This means you can arrange the renovation work in phases, keeping most of the production lines running normally while constructing new zones. For manufacturing factories that cannot afford weeks of full production shutdown, this feature alone can save hundreds of thousands of dollars in lost production revenue.
