1. A panel assembly comprising: a first panel;a second panel adjacent and parallel to the first panel to form a volume between the first panel and the second panel;the first panel having a first panel edge that is turned towards the second panel to form a first internal corner;the second panel having a second panel edge that is turned towards the first panel to form a second internal corner, the second panel edge being spaced from the first panel edge to form a gap therebetween;an elongate joining member joining the first panel and the second panel and having an inboard side facing the volume between the first panel and the second panel and an outboard side facing away from the volume between the first panel and the second panel, the elongate joining member having: a first corner formation received in the first internal corner and comprising a first side adjacent the first panel and a first end adjacent the first panel edge,a second corner formation received in the second internal corner and comprising a second side adjacent the second panel and a second end adjacent the second panel edge, wherein the second side is parallel to the first side, andat least one outboard channel formed on the outboard side of the elongate joining member and located between the first corner formation and the second corner formation, the at least one outboard channel being located in the gap between the first panel and the second panel and facing away from the volume between the first panel and the second panel,a sealing means or insulation foam located in the at least one outboard channel; andwherein the panel assembly is configured for use in a cold apparatus. 2. The panel assembly as recited in claim 1, wherein the elongate joining member is a profiled extrusion. 3. The panel assembly as recited in claim 1, further comprising at least two outboard channels, each outboard channel adapted to receive a respective sealing means or insulation foam. 4. The panel assembly as recited in claim 1, wherein the elongate joining member includes one or more inboard directed projections extending from an inboard side of the elongate joining member into the volume between the first panel and the second panel or channels to increase a surface area of the inboard side of the elongate joining member. 5. The panel assembly as recited in claim 1, wherein the sealing means comprises is in the form of a gasket or a tape. 6. The panel assembly as recited in claim 5, wherein the sealing means projects, in at least an uncompressed state, in an outboard direction from an outboard periphery of the outboard channel. 7. The panel assembly as recited in claim 1, further comprising insulating foam located between the first panel and the second panel. 8. The panel assembly of claim 1, wherein the first side, first end, second side and second end are formed on the outboard side of the elongate joining member. 9. The panel assembly of claim 1, wherein the elongate joining member includes one or more inboard channels formed on the inboard side of the elongate joining member and facing the volume between the first panel and the second panel to increase a surface area of the inboard side of the elongate joining member. 10. The panel assembly of claim 1, further comprising a third panel perpendicular to the first panel and the second panel and adjacent the first panel edge, the second panel edge, and the outboard side of the elongate joining member, wherein the sealing means or insulation foam contacts the third panel. 11. The panel assembly of claim 10, wherein the sealing means or insulation foam is compressed between the outboard side of the elongate joining member and the third panel. 12. The panel assembly of claim 1, further comprising an adhesive tape joining at least one of: the first panel to the first side of the first corner formation, or the second panel to the second side of the second corner formation.
