YOUR TRUSTED PARTNER FOR AISLE CONTAINMENT
IN CRITICAL DATA CENTER PROJECTS
COOL SHIELD™ CONTAINMENT PRODUCTS OFFERED BY
The Cool Shield aisle containment system
consists of hundreds of standard components
that have evolved over hundreds of projects.
Each confi guration is designed so customers
get the most out of their cooling infrastructure.
We work with general contractors, architects and engineers to create containment solutions.
In addition to being highly functional and customizable,
Cool Shield is extremely cost competitive with other
aisle containment systems. We manufacture our
standard components in large quantities to keep unit
costs to a minimum. Our large volume on procured
products such as polycarbonate, gives us the best
pricing available direct from the manufacturers.
Our low overhead business model allows us to provide
a quality solution, that meets all design requirements
at a favorable price point.

THE COOL SHIELD ALUMINUM CHANNEL
The aluminum channel is the heart of the system. The proprietary combination of slotted
and threaded sides has proven incredibly versatile for use in ceiling panels, vertical panels,
containment walls, doors and more. There are several versions of the channel to meet
nearly any design criteria or specifi cation.

Our commitment to being the best
results in superior performance, high
durability and a professional appearance.
Cool Shield channels are constructed of high
quality 6063 aluminum alloy with a durable
two-step anodization process in clear or black,
or powdercoated in custom colors. Standard
brackets are manufactured with 11-gauge
galvanized steel for superior strength.
Cool Shield offers both fl exible strip and panel
solutions that comply with National Fire Protection
Association (NFPA) 75 standards. Our standard
polycarbonate and strip materials feature ASTM
E-84 Class A ratings. We also offer FM 4910
approved solid panels in clear and opaque fi nishes.
Sliding and hinged doors are fabricated with
post formed steel frames for maximum sturdiness
and performance. Hardware such as hinges, rollers
and handles provide lasting functionality. Doors
are designed to meet applicable Americans with
Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements.
Our containment accessories including
blanking panels, foam strips and cable covers
all feature the highest rating available for this
type material, UL94-V0.

QUALITY AND MATERIALSMANUFACTURING
The manufacturers selected to create
Cool Shield components all share the
same high commitment to quality,
consistency and performance. They use
state-of-the-art equipment to repeatedly
deliver product within the tightest
tolerances. Quality processes such as
ISO 9001 are a must. Most components
feature primary and secondary
manufacturers to prevent single points
of failure in meeting project dates.
QUALITY CONTROL
Each Cool Shield component, from the
self-closing sliding door to a simple angle
bracket, has a precise manufacturing
drawing with material specifi cations,
explicit sizes and allowable tolerances.
This helps ensure components are
consistently produced not only per
project but over time.
Construction Project Management Process
Our consistently excellent post-project reviews
are a testament to our commitment to offer a
total quality solution.
The ability to provide a complete solution
from design to installation makes us different.
Most other containment solutions are not
manufactured by the same company that
manages delivery and installation. On a large
project, this can lead to communication issues,
fi nger-pointing and diffi culty adapting to changes.
Well over 100 end-to-end aisle containment
installations have seasoned our project managers
in planning and implementing quality total
solutions on time and on budget.
Our project managers understand the
complexity of a new data center buildout.
: Experience with Davis-Bacon prevailing wage reporting
: Ability to provide detailed drawings including
CAD and BIM fi les
: Experience with AIA billing and project reporting
: Experienced leadership in design, implementation
through commissioning
: Collaboration with architects, engineers and other trades

Our extensive experience executing total
aisle containment solutions sets us apart
from the competition in new build projects.
Our installation team is extensively trained in
site safety, resulting in a perfect safety record.
Experience
Numerous installations in new build projects
have given our team vast experience with the
potential safety hazards on new data center
job sites. Our project managers and foreman
enforce adherence to best practices from all
our installers. We are dedicated to maintaining
our zero incident safety record.
Bondability
Successful completion of numerous large
projects and strong fi nancial stability enables
us to be bonded on projects in excess of
$5 million. We carry liability insurance up
to $10 million. This combination gives
peace of mind that any project we start
will be completed.

Certifi ed
Our project team leaders are OSHA safety
certifi ed and trained to use scissor lifts,
lulls and forklifts as well as other industry
standard equipment.
Data Center Safety and Awareness
Our installation teams have extensive
experience working in live production
data center environments. It is our
stringent policy to not touch active
cabinets, cables or power cords
without authorization. We are very
careful to prevent negatively impacting
airfl ow by covering perforated fl oor
tiles or blocking air to or from server
cabinets. Cuts to any materials that
result in particulates will only be made
in approved staging areas. Required
drilling is performed with a vacuum with
a high-effi ciency particulate arrestance
(HEPA) fi lter to minimize dust.
CONTAINMENT ACCESSORIES
Designed to enhance data cooling effectiveness
and effi ciency. These complements to our aisle
containment solution help maximize cooling
capacity and energy savings.
The Cool Shield aisle containment
system is a comprehensive solution
to manage airfl ow and optimize
cooling effi ciency. Solutions are
available to meet the highest ratings
including NFPA 75 and FM Global.
AISLE CONTAINMENT PANELS
Provide a near complete seal
to prevent mixing supply and
exhaust air. They offer a very
clean and impressive aesthetic,
especially when used with clear
panels. Several panel material
options are available.
: Fixed Vertical Panels
: Sliding Vertical Panels
: Containment Panel Walls
AISLE CONTAINMENT STRIPS
Provide the high utility of a fl exible
strip solution while minimizing
higher air leakage rates typically
associated with strip solutions.
: Overlapping Strip Curtains
: Containment Strip Walls
