KoldLok is the industry standard for sealing raised-floor data centers. Designed to limit bypass airflow by efficiently sealing openings in raised floors.
Our line of rack airflow management products, specifically designed to control intake airflow in server racks. Our award-winning blanking panels are considered the 'best-fitting' in the industry.
Our modular containment solution and line of aisle airflow management products are specifically designed to block airflow, ensuring hot and cold aisle separation.
Ensuring there’s no wasted cooling is vital. Accurate control of the airflow through KoldLok Grommets allows us to consider energy-savings strategies such as increasing CRAC set points.

Managing cooling in your data center is a holistic process. We've developed a methodology which we call the 4R's of Airflow Management which addresses the specific needs of aisle containment, floor containment, hot aisle containment and then monitoring of the facility. Each part of the 4R's addresses particular needs which build upon each other and enhance the effectiveness of cooling optimization efforts.
