Why 70mm Insulated Panels Matter for Professional Animal Housing

By Haborn Products14 July 2026

The Importance of Premium Insulation

When you are investing in animal housing, whether for a professional cattery, a breeding facility, or a dedicated dog run, the building material you choose is the single most important factor for the welfare of your animals. At Haborn Products, we understand that British weather can be unpredictable, oscillating between freezing winter nights and sweltering summer afternoons. This is exactly why we champion the use of 70mm insulated sandwich panels in our British-made enclosures.



What Makes 70mm Panels Stand Out?

At the heart of our construction process lies the 70mm insulated panel. Unlike traditional timber-framed sheds that rely on thin cladding and potentially patchy loft insulation, these panels are engineered as an all-in-one, high-performance solution. They consist of two robust metal exterior skins bonded to a dense, specialized insulating core, typically made of PIR (polyisocyanurate). This core offers an incredibly low thermal conductivity, usually around 0.022 W/mK, creating a thermal barrier that effectively regulates the internal temperature regardless of the conditions outside.


Key Advantages for Professional Housing

  • Outstanding Thermal Efficiency: A 70mm panel keeps your animals cosy when the mercury drops and prevents the structure from becoming a greenhouse during the heat of summer.
  • Rapid, Hassle-Free Construction: Because our panels arrive bespoke-cut to size, the installation process is remarkably fast. This allows us to complete your pet housing projects with minimal disruption to your daily operations.
  • Structural Integrity without the Weight: The sandwich design provides excellent bending and shear strength. This means your kennel or cattery is not only durable but also lighter than brick or stone alternatives, making it ideal for various ground types.
  • Maximizing Internal Space: Traditional insulation methods often require thick, bulky walls to achieve modern energy standards. A 70mm panel provides superior thermal performance in a slim profile, giving your animals more room to move and play.
  • Hygienic and Easy to Maintain: As animal professionals, you know that hygiene is paramount. The non-porous, weather-resistant finish of our panels means they can be wiped down or hosed clean in seconds, making them far more resistant to bacteria and corrosion than porous wood or brick surfaces.



Why Choose Haborn Products?

We believe that British-made quality should be the standard for animal welfare. By opting for our 70mm insulated structures, you are choosing a long-term, low-maintenance solution that protects your investment and ensures the comfort of the animals in your care.
