Factory-assembled 2-3/4" (70mm) sandwich panel curtainwall systems include operating/fixed windows, louvers and even opaque panels.
Provide rapid installation and permanent weather seal unlike most stick-built, "frame and glaze" components, which are all field-assembled.
Kalwall prefabricated Curtainwall Systems, like as our Wall Systems, are totally pre-finished, inside and out.
Delivered to the job site in large preassembled units up to 5' x 24' (1.5m x 7.3m) and larger, limited only by handling destinations.
LEED^® contribution.
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.
