The versatility of Rudnev products.

Rudnev installations are versatile and can be adapted to suit most applications. This is due to the design and installation principles used to ensure that these structures are waterproof and well insulated against external elements.

Examples of this versatility can be seen in a variety of industries such as: • Temperature controlled environments for cold storage

and refrigeration, from chillers to blast freezers• Clean rooms and laboratories in the health and medical

industry• Chicken houses, incubation facilities, piggeries and

abattoirs in the agricultural industry• Electrical houses and control rooms for installation of

electrical switchgear and electronic control systems which are temperature sensitive

• Construction industry for site offices, accommodation and ablution facilities, equipment storage

• Food and beverage industry such as dairies, wineries, butcheries, bakeries and food processing environments

• General applications such as warehouses, offices and housing

No installation is either too small or too big. Rudnev’s competent and experienced installation crews are well trained and equiped to handle any project.

All Rudnev doors are custom-made to suit a range of applications.

Rudnev manufactures a range of quality commercial and industrial doors from architecturally designed personnel doors to large cold store docking bay doors

There are various options to hang a door: • Hinged or sliding• Vertical or horizontal • Manual or automated

Rudnev components involving aluminium framing and customised door finishes.

Manufactured to withstand the harsh commercial and industrial environments, our doors include unique .

All Rudnev doors are custom-made to ensure that size and finish meet the client’s requirements.

Our glass doors come with heavy-duty powder-coated aluminium framing, maximizing the aesthetic appeal of our display cabinets.

WALL

Our Wall Panels have an advanced joint design which has no gap between the styrene where the panels butt on installation. This development reduces the risk of vapour leaks and the need for sealant.

PANEL JOINT SYSTEMS

Versatile. Efficient. Local.

Made in South AfricaSouthspan Panels are made in a state-of-the-art manufacturing plant in KwaZulu-Natal. All panels are manufactured to the required length ensuring continuous watertight panels and no waste. Production flexibility, the fast turnaround of orders, and short runs are a feature of Southspan’s manufacturing capabilities. Our unique position close to the harbour ensures quick transport to international customers.

Spanning CapabilitiesSouthspan EPS insulated panels have an impressive strength to weight ratio and provide excellent spanning capabilities, and are self-supporting to long lengths.

Passive Temperature Control Fully encapsulated pre-finished Southspan panels provide a guaranteed and continuous insulation rating, suitable for all ambient and refrigerated applications. When used as a roofing product radiant heat transfer and condensation build up is eliminated.

Fast Build TimesThe modular nature of insulated panel can significantly reduce build times. The tongue and groove interlocking panels arrive on-site pre-finished and are installed efficiently using single-fix construction techniques. There are no curing times and no multi-product combinations to cause delays.

Low Maintenance and HygienicThe steel profiles and paint finishes provide an easily cleaned, hygienic, low maintenance sterile surface approved for food processing, food preparation and cold storage facilities.

Fire RetardantEPS used in Southspan Panels is fire retardant and will not propagate or contribute to the spread of fire. Surface fire index results according to SABS 0177, part III yield the following results: Spread of flame index 4.4, Heat contribution index 0.9, Smoke emission index 9.9, Surface fire index 4.7, Class 5.

Guaranteed QualitySouthspan Panels are accredited by the Thermal Panel Manufacturers Association of South Africa and all Southspan panels are manufactured to an ISO9001:2015 quality assurance system.

Flexible DesignSouthspan insulated panel can clad vertically or horizontally. There are two different profile finishes that can be combined with a wide choice of colours, including metallic, suitable for both interior and exterior applications.

Cost Effective InsulationEPS insulation is one of the most cost effective, lightweight rigid insulation materials available, making it most suitable for areas such as standalone cold and chill stores and areas of high moisture. Through improving the insulation values, the amount of fuel or energy required to heat or cool a building is reduced, benefiting the environment and providing savings to the building user. Its exceptional lightweight properties providefurther savings in the costs for foundations, framing and installation.

Natural rainfall will remove most deposits, but manual washing is required in areas that are not subject to adequate rainfall. High Risk areas (around flues, underneath canopies, under television aerials, under overhanging trees, areas prone to bird droppings, areas where lichen or moss growth occurs, etc.) Will require hand washing.

Walls can be washed down with fresh water from a hose or bucket. A solution of fresh water and Tepol or non-aggressive detergent, which contains diluted ammonia, may be used to remove heavy deposits from walls, followed by a fresh water rinse. Water temperature should not exceed 60°C with a maximum pressure of 20MPa. Stubborn oil or grease stains can be easily removed with white spirit on a cotton cloth, sponge or soft nylon-bristled brush followed by an immediate fresh water rinse.

Solvents, cleaners containing abrasives and cleaners in strong concentrations should not be used. Over-cleaning or scrubbing can do more harm than good. To allow regular washing of panels, it is important that both the design and maintenance of the panel system should prevent moisture collecting in crevices and joints.

Joint detailSouthey Panels’ unique tongue and groove interlocking detail provides easy & effective joint installation. This uniquely designed system incorporates a male and female joint on each steel face that provides a rigid and sealed connection between adjacent panels. The tightness and quality of the joint resists deformity in fire situations, provides a weather tight seal and enables effective and easy installation.

Polystyrene core butt jointsThe butt joints between the ends of the polystyrene core material have been made by way of finger jointing providing a mechanical bond across the end faces of the core material. The finger joints at the butt joints of the polystyrene core material occur every 4.8 / 5.0 metres.

• Allow an additional 50mm thickness for walls and roofs exposed to direct sunlight.

• Consideration should be given to insulating floor detail.

• Values are guides only.
