- Taking Kalwall sandwich panel technology to another dimension... the marriage of aluminum box beams and Kalwall panels into a monolithic, structural space enclosure.
- Variety of designs, unequaled by any other daylighting system.
- Design control, fabrication, delivery and complete installation for the ultimate in single-source responsibility!
- Installations completed in weeks - not months - due to component standardizations and CAD technology.
- Complete buildings, including Pool Enclosures, featuring non-corrosion and moisture resistance built in.
- Thermal break technology for the ultimate condensation control.
- LEED® contribution.
- Kalwall 100™ panels are 4" (100mm) thick for applications requiring even more structural integrity. U-values from 0.08 to 0.15 BTU/(hr/ft²/ºF) or 0.45 to 0.85 W/m²K (R-13 to R-6.16).
- Super-insulating, light-transmitting Kalwall+ Nanogel® infilled with translucent aerogel for R-20, panel U-value of 0.05 BTU/(hr/ft²/ºF) or 0.30 W/m²K with 20% light transmission.
- Special application and national building code-compliant. Following are just a few of the codes and standards applying to Kalwall Translucent Structures and Large Systems:
- Explosion Venting Panels designed and manufactured to FM 4440 standards
- ASTM E 1886 and E1996 Hurricane Standards, including flying debris cannon test promulgated originally in the Florida Building Code
- ASTM E331 Water Penetration
- ASTM E283-91 Air Leakage
- ASTM E330-90 Structural Performance
- Designed in accordance with ICC-ES, ASCE 7 methods.
- Seismic codes
- Optional extra-high impact faces withstand extraordinary impact forces in accordance with UL 972 standards
- A thermoset FRP/aluminum composite that will not melt, Kalwall panels have many optional fire reaction capabilities.
- Complies with DoD and GSA UFC 4-010-01 Blast-Resistant Construction.
