Data Centres

Data Centre Infrastructure Reimagined.

Modern data centres demand more than raw computing power. They require structural precision, thermal control, RF shielding, and acoustic isolation - often delivered through costly secondary specifications. THOM Smart Wall integrates all of these as native properties of the panel itself.

Conventional Steel & Drywall
Market Today
Conventional Steel & Drywall
No RF shielding - Faraday cages must be added at significant cost
High U-values increase cooling energy load dramatically
Drywall condensation risk in high-humidity server environments
Acoustic bleed between server rooms without costly treatment

What THOM Does Differently
Target 60+ dB RF/EMI attenuation at 50 MHz-1 GHz - built into the panel itself (pending testing)
Target 50+ dB RF attenuation at 1-10 GHz - covers all 5G and trading frequencies
Target 55+ dB airborne sound insulation - designed to exceed Part E without acoustic specification
Target 50+ dB impact sound insulation - server vibration and footsteps attenuated
Shielded seam connectors maintain Faraday continuity across all panel joints
Zero cost premium - no Faraday cage lining, no acoustic mat, no resilient bar

How It Works

The aluminium outer skin and integrated shielding layers block electromagnetic interference (EMI) without additional specification or cost. This is particularly valuable for:

  • •Secure facilities
  • •Data centres
  • •Healthcare
  • •High-frequency trading
