In case you haven’t heard, Kalwall has released a product that is brand new and better than ever. Kalwall 175CW is the first in a series of new translucent insulated glazing units (TIGUs) for facade applications. So, what makes it the right choice for your next project?
1. Designed to Fit In Anywhere
Kalwall 175CW is designed to be compatible with most curtainwall systems available on the market, allowing you to mix and match Kalwall with other infill glazings and opaque claddings. This means you can start a retrofit or new build without worrying about whether your panels will fit into the structural system of your choice.
2. High-Performance Glazing That Can’t Be Beat
Like all Kalwall products, 175CW offers best-in-industry thermal performance and solar heat gain control. But it does more than that: With 175CW, you can create perfectly bright, comfortable spaces without sacrificing daylight autonomy while eliminating the need for secondary control systems. Plus, you get the added benefit of being able to mix and match with glass to offer privacy or modesty where needed.
3. Supplement—or Replace—Glass Spans
While glass is typically the material of choice for large spans, traditional Kalwall panels often serve as a preferred alternative, thanks to their lightweight-yet-strong nature. With Kalwall 175CW, you don’t have to choose. Similar to Kalwall’s traditional translucent panel systems, these 44-millimeter TIGUs are incredibly lightweight (less than 1 1/2 pounds per square foot), allowing you to achieve exceptional spans to offer the ultimate in design flexibility. Plus, these fully customizable glazing units can be adjusted to fit any need or desire when it comes to vision versus translucency, allowing you to mix and match 175CW with double- or triple-glazed units, spandrels and other claddings
If you’re feeling skeptical, here’s a bonus: Kalwall 175CW allows you to build with ease during the winter months. Depending on where you live, starting a new build in the winter may not be feasible. With 175CW, you can build anytime, anywhere, with the structural materials of your choice, whether you’re conducting a retrofit or thinking ahead to a future-fit.
Open your next build up to a world of possibilities. Kalwall 175CW—always the right fit.
