Panel Built, Inc. Introduces Modular Isolation Rooms to Help Contain Spreading Viruses

Panel Built, Inc. Introduces Modular Isolation Rooms to Help Contain Spreading Viruses

Panel Built, modular construction provider for 25 years, now offers a way for medical facilities to create and expand their infectious patient isolation areas with modular Isolation rooms. Panel Built's modular isolation rooms are a convenient solution for hospitals that need to increase their single-occupancy, isolation space as quickly as possible. Using a panelized wall system, the isolation rooms are fully fabricated in Panel Built's modular construction facilities. The components are then delivered and assembled on site. This design allows for prefabricated, quickly assembled isolation rooms that have fully customized layouts and designs.

Like modular clean rooms, Panel Built's isolation rooms offer options, (where situations warrant), for HVAC systems with fan filter units (FFUs) to keep the room at appropriate temperatures and constantly filter particles with HEPA filtration and UV light from the environment's air supply with the numerous air exchanges per hour. When the negative pressure isolation room is needed, the air pressure inside the isolation room is lower than entrance anteroom to keep air flowing into the patient isolation room instead of out, thus keeping any contaminants or particles from escaping the room. All isolation rooms should be used in conjunction with proper staff and equipment sanitizing and hospital contamination control procedures.


Panel Built's Steve Grzesik, Sales Manager Welded Steel Division, stated, "While Panel Built is a for-profit company, our first objective is to help our nation and others meet the challenge and help save lives. Our nation's largest hospitals and long term care centers will need all the isolation bed space they can get, and Panel Built is ready to help meet the need."

M.R. Secure Sales LLC spokesman stated the following, " There are 330 million persons in the USA. Predictions are, over the next 12-18 months, approximately 1% of the USA population (if tested) may be infected with the Coronavirus. If proper protocol is to be followed, 3.3 million isolation rooms may be needed in the USA alone. The nations largest hospitals in total, may currently have fewer than several thousand isolation rooms. "

Panel Built was founded in 1995 by brothers Pat and Mike Kiernan, and began with the construction of pre-manufactured buildings. Today, Panel Built offers a complete line of custom modular offices, mezzanines, security booths, pre-assembled exterior buildings, and cleanrooms. Panel Built isolation rooms are designed 100% to customer specifications and are delivered with components ready for installation. Panel Built's main mission is, "Solving Our Customers' Space Needs with Excellence and Great Customer Service."
