Athletic facilities demand more than daylight alone. They need visual comfort, impact-resistant enclosure systems, and large-span solutions built to handle the realities of hard use, extreme weather, and year-round operation.
Kalwall brings soft, diffuse natural light into field houses, gymnasiums, natatoriums, arenas, training spaces, and recreation centers without the glare, contrast, and solar hot spots associated with clear glazing. And unlike glass or polycarbonate, Kalwall panels are engineered to take punishment. They resist impact, shed water, stand up to wind and weather, and keep performing without the cracking, yellowing, or failure that sidelines lesser systems.
Kalwall is especially effective in sports and recreation facilities where large areas of daylight are needed, but glare control, durability, privacy, and energy performance also matter.

Kalwall fills athletic spaces with perfectly diffused, full-spectrum daylight. The kind that sharpens visual acuity, eliminates harsh contrast, and makes every angle of the space camera-ready.
Support daylighting goals while helping control solar gain and improve enclosure performance in spaces with large occupancies and demanding operating schedules.
Bring daylight into high-volume spaces such as field houses, arenas, and indoor practice facilities where conventional glazing can become structurally limiting, visually harsh, or expensive.
Stand up to the extreme with Kalwall. Our panel system’s provide occupants with privacy and meet many code requirements when it comes to fire, wind, blast and more.
An ever-growing roster of professional and intercollegiate sports teams have specified Kalwall for stadiums, practice facilities, field houses, and training centers. Kalwall delivers the balanced, glare-free daylighting these environments demand. Because in sports facilities, visual acuity isn’t a comfort consideration. It’s a performance and safety requirement.
That’s why Kalwall offers complimentary daylight modeling. Using third-party validated data and current simulation software, the Kalwall modeling team can map light levels across surfaces, identify potential glare before it becomes a problem, and produce documentation that supports design decisions, code compliance, and owner confidence.
UGA needed an indoor athletic facility that could perform at the same level as its athletes. See how Kalwall delivered glare-free daylighting, practice privacy, and thermal performance across a 140-yard training floor.
