You’re building a smart data center, the right way. The walls are up, floors are poured, and electrical systems are humming. Now it’s time to turn your attention to the finishing touches that protect uptime and drive long-term efficiency: containment.

Polargy’s containment solutions are engineered to help data centers perform better. From new builds to retrofit work, our team delivers straightforward, detailed design documents that help architects and installation crews move faster, prevent rework, and hit energy and sustainability targets with confidence.

Designing Containment That Works the First Time

Containment is often the last system installed in a data center; any delays or changes at that stage impact the entire project schedule. That’s why Polargy leans into design with a full-service approach – from early collaboration to finalized drawings – keeping the install smooth and the outcomes predictable.

Our process starts with your architectural plans. For new construction, we use those to create accurate shop drawings in CAD. After installation, we provide record drawings for your close-out package. It’s all part of a straightforward design path that reduces surprises in the field and enable operational efficiencies.

Design Assist Keeps You Ahead of Problems

Polargy’s design assist services go a step further. We work directly with your architect and engineers to develop a final containment plan that integrates cleanly into your project.

Why does that matter? Because containment goes beyond what looks good on paper. The right containment solution, a well-designed and smart data center plan, ensures that everything works under real conditions and is optimized for performance. Our team has walked hundreds of sites and understands how things get built. That means we flag installation challenges before they become costly rework, help you avoid last-minute scrambles, and build confidence into your schedule. Bringing us in early helps you finish stronger.

Retrofit Solutions Backed by Field Experience

When it comes to retrofits, Polargy adapts to what’s already there. We take measurements in the field, work from your layout drawings, and build a clear, functional design from the conditions on-site.

Our goal is to give you a clear path forward without slowing you down. We provide basic but accurate documentation that keeps your upgrade project aligned and moving forward. Whether it’s a legacy facility with patchwork containment or a modern build that needs a refresh, we bring solutions, not headaches.

Why Containment Matters

Containment plays a key role in how efficiently your data center operates. Done right, containment separates hot and cold airflows, reduces the load on cooling equipment, and allows you to run higher inlet temperatures safely. That means lower energy costs, longer equipment life, and a stronger return on investment from your infrastructure.

Polargy customers have saved millions of kilowatt hours with smart airflow solutions. That’s what happens when well-designed systems do their job, day in and day out. Well-designed data centers that save kilowatt hours matter as energy efficiency and sustainability concerns are part of every conversation. Taking the right steps to minimize energy consumption and optimize performance by design is core to what we do.

What Makes Polargy Different

We do more than design containment, we engineer outcomes. Here’s what sets Polargy apart:

• Comprehensive design and engineering: Our containment systems aren’t just custom, they’re calculated. Every component fits into a bigger system that we’ve thought through from start to finish.
• Vertically integrated manufacturing: Because we fabricate our own products, you get consistent quality, fast lead times, and fewer delays from supply chain snags. If we say it’ll be there Tuesday, it’s there Tuesday.
• Design for the field: Rapid installation, with varying levels of prebuilding to reduce labor on site. 
• Sustainable and cost-effective solutions: We’re not chasing trendy ideas. Our designs are built to save energy, reduce waste, and cut costs over the long haul.

Containment Products That Work Together

Your data center isn’t static, and neither is our product line. Polargy containment systems are modular, scalable, and field-tested for performance. 

Here are a few core components we use across both new construction and retrofit projects:

• Standard Slot Structural Ceiling: A sturdy overhead system that supports containment, lighting, and cable trays – with a continuous threaded slow allowing easy adjustability and attachment.
• Global Channel Structural Ceiling: A universal ceiling structure that allows for future flexibility, ideal for scalable data centers.
• FlexRail Aisle Containment: A flexible aisle containment solution that adapts to racks and real-world layouts, even when things aren’t square.
• Flat-Pack CRAC Extensions: Efficient airflow control for cooling units, shipped flat to save space and cost.
• Modular Data Center Walls: Fast-install partitions that divide data center rooms, in place of drywall – and can be relocated as your layout changes.

These products are designed to solve the problems we’ve seen on-site, and built to help you stay on budget and ahead of schedule.

What Success Looks Like

Success is more than a containment system that installs without a hitch – it’s one that disappears into the background once it’s in place. 

When you choose Polargy, you get a partner who delivers on promises and helps you look good in front of your client. No guesswork. No second guessing. Just clean installs, efficient airflow, and a facility that runs the way it should.
