THE GREEN BENEFITS OF BENCHMARK BY KINGSPAN IMPS

Testing and field results show that insulated metal panels (IMPs) – including BENCHMARK by Kingspan’s Designwall™ line –
contribute to sustainability and energy efficiency in a variety of ways. Among the most noteworthy:
Interior environmental quality: delivered with “Control Wall” Reduced construct defects: IMPs require less trades where
performance of air and moisture infiltration / exfiltration with latent defects occur in traditional site built systems.
high quality “Off-Site” constructed assemblies.
Life cycle benefits: BENCHMARK By Kingspan’s Designwall™
Recycled and recyclable: the exterior skins contain recycled last as long as the service life of a typical commercial building.
steel, and the panels are recyclable at end of life. The durable panels also reduce operational costs for energy
and maintenance.
Low-weight materials: IMPs weigh only 3 pounds per square
foot, reducing transport and installation energy needs. Green building certifications: BENCHMARK By Kingspan
IMP systems contribute to various green certification
programs and the path to net-zero.

Sourcing of Raw Materials

Option 1. Raw Material Source and Kingspan at this time can report where the steel coils are manufactured.
Extraction Reporting
Recycled content Below is an example of how Kingspan reports recycled content based on the Steel Recycling Institute’s guidelines.
Data needed to run calculation include:
• Thickness of panel • Gauge of exterior skin
• Gauge of interior skin • Total panel cost
• Where the steel was produced*
Specific recycled content of the steel can be verified with a letter from the steel supplier upon request
Note: for most accurate reporting specific coil information is required and typically not available until job is “run”.
Any information prior to the “run” is a best estimate.

KarrierPanel™ System
PRODUCT SPECIFICATION
UNIQUE KARRIERRAIL™
KarrierPanel™ utilizes a unique, Kingspan designed rail.
This stable and secure structural rail safely transmits positive
and negative live and dead loads from the multiple façades
through panel and rail fasteners to the structural supports
behind the insulated panels.
Additional, expansion fasteners securing the exposed rail edge,
provide extra fastening capacity and stability to the rail.
The rail has been developed to fully integrate with Kingspan’s
KS series panel joint. This rail system does not penetrate the
air vapor barrier and enables multiple types of rain screens to
be attached to the KarrierPanel™ rail, ranging from brick
to single skin metal.
SYSTEM BENEFITS

Apply design wind load to the tributary
