Introduction to Kalwall
Kalwall is a translucent, structural sandwich panel designed with prismatic glass fibers embedded in the panel’s face sheets. These glass prisms refract sunlight to offer a balanced, diffuse light that is free of glare. Kalwall provides full-spectrum, natural visible light without distorting color rendition. During the manufacturing process, panels are equipped with translucent insulation to minimize solar heat gains.
Unitized Curtain Walls
Unitized Curtain Walls encompass all the functionalities of traditional Wall Systems but come with the additional advantages of factory unitization. Beyond translucent wall panels, designers can incorporate fixed and operable windows, opaque panels, and fixed louvers for both single and multi-story applications.
