Metl-Span commercial and industrial panels serve as walls, ceilings and roofs for commercial and industrial buildings, in new and retrofit construction. Metl-Span insulated metal panels can be easily adapted to pre-engineered metal building designs for almost any end-use as walls and roofs, saving material and labor costs. Other end applications include schools, manufacturing facilities, distribution warehouses, equipment maintenance buildings, mechanical penthouses, kiosks, equipment screens, aircraft hangars, prison units and office buildings.
Metl-Span cold storage panels function as walls, ceilings and roofs for cooler, freezer and food processing buildings, in new and retrofit construction. In addition, Metl-Span panels are ideal for dry goods warehouses and other controlled environment buildings where temperature control and insulation values are critical.
ThermalSafe® combines advanced panel design with Metl-Span's sophisticated manufacturing expertise to create a composite panel that achieves one, two and three hour fire resistance ratings under the most demanding conditions. In addition to its fire resistant characteristics, the panel provides good thermal performance and protection from the elements. The unique LockGuard® interlocking side joint further enhances the fire resistant performance of the panel with its tongue and groove engagement of the mineral wool core.

Riddle Hospital’s new Health Center 4 located on the hospital’s campus in Media, PA combines patient-centered design and environmentally friendly features. The $40 million, 80,000 sq. ft. medical office building embodies today’s best practices for creating new healthcare facilities.
More than 7,000 sq. ft. of Metl-Span 2” and 3” Architectural Flat insulated metal wall panels were utilized on the project. The panels were finished in two custom colors, Platinum and Medium Gray. In addition, approximately 800 sq. ft. of Metl-Span CFR 36 standing seam roof panels finished in Cool Metallic Silver were used on a pedestrian bridge.
Installation of the Metl-Span panels was done by Panelcraft, Inc., Boothwyn, PA. The panels were installed horizontally in module widths ranging from 21” to 40”. “It was a complicated, complex job with unique detailing on each elevation,” according to Richard Scharr, project manager. “Virtually everything was custom and required extremely careful field measurements along with field fabrication as needed. The design called for segmented panels at the top of the structure to follow the arc of the building and they turned out great. Metl-Span did a great job with the overall fabrication and the panels are certainly performing as expected. The Metl-Span dry seal gasketed system really delivers.”
Design for the project was provided by The Sheward Partnership, Philadelphia. The general contractor on the project was John S. McManus, Inc., Chester Heights, PA.
Metl-Span pioneered many of the developments of insulated metal panels and continues to make significant contributions to design innovations and technology that shape industry standards. For more information on the complete line of Metl-Span products, call 877-585-9969 or visit www.metlspan.com.
