IMPs Cut Down on Cooling Costs Amid the Texas Heat

KAI Enterprises chose Insulated Metal Panels (IMPs) to complete the new 500,000-square-foot Aisin facility in Texas. IMPs were used to future-proof the building and reduce energy consumption. This thermal efficiency, along with full vapor and water barriers, makes IMPs an energy-efficient cladding option, helping Aisin minimize cooling costs in the Texas heat.
