What is a translucent panel?
Translucent panel systems are an energy-saving, dependable and versatile glazing choice. Their unique sandwich panel design provides strength and light weight while also allowing soft, diffuse natural light to illuminate interior spaces.
What is a translucent wall?
Made with cellular polycarbonate, the translucent wall panel systems insulate better and are a more cost-effective alternative to a conventional glass wall. These industrial strength walls are impact resistant and low maintenance.
What is a kalwall system?
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. Proper daylighting is about quality, not quantity of light.
What is kalwall made of?
The aluminum or thermally-broken grid core with interlocking I-beams gives sandwich panels incredible strength in a light-weight system, making them substantially lighter when compared to the glass equivalent.
Is kalwall a polycarbonate?
Meet Kalwall Best-in-industry thermal performance and solar heat gain control for energy savings. A rugged panel that stands up to the extreme: wind, fire, impact, vandalism.

Is kalwall fire rated?
FIRE TESTS: Although some Kalwall panels contain combustible binder resins (ignition temperature greater than 800°F), they will withstand a 1200°F flame for one hour with no flame penetration; pass the Class “A” Burning Brand Test (ASTM E-108), or UL 790 Iisted Class A Roof system.
How thick is kalwall?
The building block for all Kalwall systems is a flat Kalwall, or curved Kalcurve panel, which is 2-3/4” (70 mm) thick. 4” (100 mm) is also available for some panel options.
