High-durability insulated panels designed specifically for Greek commercial developments, agricultural cold chains, and coastal industrial plants.
Greece is undergoing an ambitious modernization of its logistics hubs, agricultural processing plants, and tourism infrastructure. With major hubs expanding rapidly around the Piraeus Port, Attica logistics zones, and the industrial corridors of Thessaloniki, the need for sustainable, fast-assembly building solutions has never been more critical. The local industry demands modern building envelopes that not only install rapidly but also adapt to challenging local regulations.
Crucially, commercial construction in Greece must align with the strict Greek Regulation on the Energy Performance of Buildings (KENAK - Κανονισμός Ενεργειακής Απόδοσης Κτιρίων). This regulation divides Greece into four climate zones (A, B, C, D) and sets stringent U-value (thermal transmittance) maximum limits for roofs and exterior walls. Additionally, the high seismic activity of the Aegean region dictates lightweight, high-tensile wall systems to lower structural dead loads and minimize earthquake-induced inertial forces.
By opting for engineered EPS (Expanded Polystyrene) insulated sandwich panels, builders in Greece gain an optimal performance-to-weight ratio. They bypass the excessive mass of conventional blockwork while achieving target U-values effortlessly, reducing structural frame costs and protecting buildings from severe seismic stress.
EPS panels average 10–14 kg/m² compared to traditional drywalls or concrete structures (>150 kg/m²), lowering lateral earthquake kinetic energy limits on structural steel by up to 85%.
Designed with superior steel sheet coatings (e.g., PVDF, HDP, or polyurethane-polyamide) to withstand high Aegeantic sea salt corrosion, preventing premature delamination and rust.
Optimized structural and thermal configurations to overcome extreme summer temperatures and high seismic loads in Greece.
With summer ambient temperatures in mainland Greece regularly exceeding 40°C, the temperature delta between internal cold storage and external cladding creates huge vapor pressure. Our tongue-and-groove joint layout prevents micro-infiltration of air, moisture, and thermal leaks, eliminating risk of local structural mold.
Due to Greece's zone-2 and zone-3 high seismic ratings, industrial buildings require structural flexibility. Our EPS panels utilize dedicated compression-seal washers and sliding expansion anchor points that allow steel frames to deflect during seismic events without compromising panel structural integrity.
We supply precise, density-controlled EPS panels ranging from 50mm up to 200mm. For Northern Greece (Zone C/D), we engineer thicker core variants to ensure buildings comfortably achieve the U-value standard (below 0.35 W/m²K) required for modern commercial and public infrastructure.

Expert technical answers for engineers, developers, and logistics managers building in Greece.
KENAK dictates thermal transmittance (U-values) for new structures based on regional climate zones. For example, walls in Zone B (Central Greece) require U-values ≤ 0.40 W/m²K, while Zone C (Northern Greece) requires ≤ 0.35 W/m²K. Jonas Build’s 100mm to 150mm EPS core panels provide thermal resistance (R-values) that easily meet or exceed these requirements, eliminating thermal bridging at connection joints.
Yes, they are highly recommended. Conventional heavy materials increase lateral seismic forces during an earthquake. Because EPS sandwich panels are lightweight (averaging 10–14 kg/m²), they reduce the total dead weight of the building envelope, thereby lowering structural acceleration forces on the primary steel framing.
For locations within 2 km of the Aegean or Ionian seas, we recommend steel sheets coated with PVDF (Polyvinylidene Fluoride) or HDP (High-Durability Polyester) with a marine-grade primer. This provides C4 or C5 corrosion protection, safeguarding the steel cladding against saline humidity and high UV exposure.
We coordinate direct container shipping from Ningbo Port to the ports of Piraeus or Thessaloniki. Production typically takes 15–20 days, and ocean freight averages 25–30 days. We provide comprehensive export documentation, including packing lists, commercial invoices, bill of lading, and CE certificates for smooth customs clearance.
EPS is the most cost-effective insulation option, offering excellent thermal efficiency at a lower price point. While PIR provides higher thermal resistance per thickness and Rockwool offers superior non-combustible fire ratings, EPS remains the budget-friendly solution for warehouses, agricultural storage, and modular buildings where standard fire safety standards (EN 13501 Class B) are sufficient.
Yes. We manufacture Z-Lock joint profiles for wall panels and standard overlapping profiles for roof panels. These joints can be fitted with factory-applied seals to prevent warm air and moisture infiltration, which is essential for maintaining consistent internal environments in Greek cold chain and food processing facilities.
