Insulated Wall Panels: High Performance Building Envelope Solutions

Insulated wall panels are manufactured to exact customer specifications to meet applicable building codes and achieve specified R-values. They provide design flexibility and offer many advantages during construction and occupancy.

Faster Installation

Off-site production means precast panels can be produced concurrently with site preparation and foundation work. This helps to dramatically shorten the overall construction schedule, and can lead to earlier occupancy and a faster ROI for building owners. Once delivered to the site, panels are ready for immediate installation, with no need to make modifications to integrate with other building components. Installation can be completed with less labor than other envelope systems and requires minimal on-site supervision.

Enhanced Thermal Efficiency

The integrated insulation limits thermal bridging and helps maintain consistent indoor temperatures. In large-scale climate-controlled facilities, insulated wall panels can lead to reduced energy consumption.

Mechanical Integration
Window, door, dock, and mechanical openings can be cast directly into panels during production. This ensures precise alignment with MEP systems and minimizes on-site modifications.

High-Performance Building Envelope

Insulated precast wall panels deliver excellent thermal resistance to meet energy codes and lower heating and cooling costs. Their durability and low maintenance needs provide lasting value over the life of the building.

Occupant Safety & Comfort

Concrete’s inherent fire resistance enhances life safety and can reduce insurance premiums. Precast concrete wall panels achieve two-hour fire ratings and require no additional fireproofing, drywalling, or insulating after installation. Precast concrete panels also offer high sound absorption and can boost indoor air quality.

Minimal Site Disruption

Precast walls require much less staging space than other concrete wall systems because there’s no on-site formwork and curing. This reduces site congestion, minimizes labor costs, reduces onsite waste, and shortens the overall construction schedule.

Lasting Value for Diverse Applications

Project leaders specify County Prestress & Precast’s insulated wall panels for large-scale projects with tight construction deadlines that demand durability, high thermal performance, and customized aesthetics.

Warehouses, Distribution, and Manufacturing Centers

Insulated wall panels can be produced in large quantities with short lead times, leading to faster completion of industrial buildings. Panels can act as both exterior and interior walls without any additional finishing work or insulation, and their inherent strength can withstand forklift impacts. Openings for loading docks and hardware for trailer securements can be cast during production to further accelerate the construction schedule.

Recreation and Community Centers

Precast wall panels are a cost-effective building envelope solution for large-scale buildings that can improve occupant safety and comfort. The panels can improve indoor air quality by limiting air infiltration, and their two-hour fire ratings limit the spread of fires. Their thermal efficiency and minimal maintenance requirements can help lower operating costs, providing good long-term value for communities.

Storm Shelters and Public Safety Facilities

Precast wall panels can be engineered to withstand vehicle impact, high winds and windblown debris, fire, and blast loads, making them suitable for emergency shelters.

Data Centers and Telecommunications Hubs

The ability of IWPs to accelerate construction schedules makes them a great fit to meet the surging demand for data center projects. Their thermal efficiency provides long-term energy savings for data centers.
