Daylight shapes how people experience space influencing comfort, energy use, and the way architecture feels.
Kalwall translucent facades make it possible to envelop your building in museum-quality daylight™ that’s beautifully balanced and precisely controlled.
Our systems deliver the performance of a solid wall, up to R-20 insulation while filling interiors with diffuse, full-spectrum light that enhances well-being and visual comfort.
Designed to meet the demands of both new and retrofit projects, Kalwall facades offer privacy, durability, and energy efficiency without sacrificing elegance.
Available as wall systems, unitized curtain walls, window replacements, or custom configurations, they adapt seamlessly to your design intent and building requirements.
Kalwall transforms daylight into a performance material engineered to elevate architecture from the inside out.
From single-story to mid-rise construction, Kalwall wall systems transform sunlight into glare-free daylight to enhance any space.

Proper daylighting is about quality, not quantity of light. Millions of prismatic glass fibers embedded in our panels’ translucent face sheets refract sunlight to provide a balanced, diffuse wash of glare-free, usable light deep within spaces. We call it museum-quality daylighting.
Kalwall is the most highly insulating, diffused-light-transmitting technology available. With thermal performance that can match that of a solid wall and solar heat gain coefficients as low as .04, Kalwall significantly lowers HVAC loads and electric costs—putting you well on your way to meeting any energy efficiency goals.
The biggest issue with inefficient, poorly lit buildings? They reduce the comfort and wellness of building occupants. Our diffuse daylighting delivers the wavelengths of light human bodies require to properly function while the thermal and solar heat gain properties of our panels ensure occupant comfort. In a Kalwall space, people experience boosted mood and productivity.
Kalwall is not a glazing panel, but rather a composite structural sandwich panel with outstanding load capacity and structural integrity that polycarbonate systems and insulated glass units (IGUs) simply cannot match.
Superior daylighting ensures and acuity and improves mood, productivity and performance.
Kalwall has been formulated to meet fire-related code requirements.
Protects occupants and interiors, unlike most glass and polycarbonate.
Natural daylighting promotes visual, mental and biological wellness.
Blast-resistant systems meet DOD UFC 4-010-01 Anti-Terrorism Force Protection regulations.
Translucency offers total visual privacy from the outside.
Improve solar heat gain control by as much as 900% compared to traditional insulated glass units.
Better diffusion means that light penetrates much deeper into interiors, reducing artificial light.
Best-in-industry thermal performance with up to .05 UV value or R-20.
OSHA fall-through compliant for easy installation and maintenance.
High load capacity and structural integrity for longer spans with less required substructure.
Self-cleaning surface, meaning normal rainfall helps to keep the exterior free of sediment.
Daylighting offsets electric lighting costs and reduces heating and cooling loads.
Panels on average weigh about 2 lbs/sq. foot or 9.76 kg/sq. meter.
Factory-unitized modular systems reduce on-site fabrication.
Best-in-industry warranties. Weather tested for high UV, humidity and cold environments.
