LEWISVILLE, Texas, May 20, 2020 – Design-build projects for the public sector always come with specific requirements with little room for flexibility. The City of Palm Beach Gardens, Fla., wanted its new Operations Center to meet the requirements of LEED Silver certification, look great and be designed to withstand 205 mph ultimate wind speeds, all while staying within a strict budget. The choice of insulated metal panels (IMPs) from Metl-Span helped meet those goals.

A major renovation and addition to a building that’s a part of the Tech Parks Arizona has created additional working space for potential research and development tenants. Aesthetics played a large role in the choice of insulated metal panels from Metl-Span for the addition.
LEWISVILLE, Texas, 2020 – Because time waits for no one, keeping enclosure time at a minimum was vital in the construction of the Solano County SB 1022 Classroom and Vocational Training Center in Fairfield, Calif. Building codes require the building be enclosed before much of the inside work begins, so Metl-Span’s HPCI Barrier Wall Panels were prescribed to keep construction moving along.
LEWISVILLE, Texas, August 2020 – A growing business and staff required the construction of a new corporate headquarters and manufacturing facility for Feldmeier Equipment in Syracuse, N.Y. The new $15 million facility combines a pre-engineered Varco Pruden metal building with a façade of several materials, including Metl-Span insulated metal panels.
Construction is tough enough without finding your IMPs have been damaged before they could go up. Following a few tips can keep them pristine no matter how long they sit on the site. Introduction: Construction has enough odds and ends to keep in mind without having to deal with dings or punctures to panels before […]
LEWISVILLE, Texas, February 2020 – Renovating and transforming a 70-year-old manufacturing facility into a contemporary office building with impressive amenities, requires some imagination, careful planning and a lot of communication. The Cannon, an entrepreneurial hub in west Houston, also called for more than 90,000 square feet of insulated metal panels (IMPs) from Metl-Span for walls and roofing.
Insulated metal panels (IMPs) are an ideal cladding solution for multi-story structures for a variety of reasons. Lightweight, code compliant, thermally efficient and modern aesthetics make them ideal for these applications.’ Horizontally installed IMPs require a healthy amount of coordination with the project’s design team. Steel stud walls or tube steel supports are typical for […]
In recent years, a handful of high-profile building fires have caused renewed scrutiny of using cladding systems with combustible content in multi-story buildings. Although these fires have not occurred in the U.S., and our building code is different than those used in the U.K. and elsewhere, the loss of life and property damage that have […]
When specifying insulated panels for a project, builders have an array to choose from. But when looking at two of the most popular types— structural insulated panels or insulated metal panels, it is important to understand which is best for the project at hand. While both are insulated and provide most of the wall assembly components, […]
When looking at evaluating different construction materials, particularly those that will have to withstand extreme temperature changes, it’s important to understand how they will react to the environment. An important aspect of using metal in construction is understanding the concepts of expansion and contraction. As metal heats up, it expands; as it cools, it contracts. […]
