Metl-Span architectural panels have thicker gauge facings that provide a better flat, visual appearance than the thinner gauges used for profiled, commercial/industrial panels, and offer longer spans and more impact resistance. Architectural panels are usually flat, but are also available in some profiles such as striated or light mesa (planked). Quite often, they are used for horizontal applications, where panel lengths can be sized to line up with window mullions. Standard widths provide the most cost economy, but custom widths allow the designer the freedom to line up horizontal reveals with window heads and sills, providing a clean, orderly appearance.
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.
Metl-Span CFR Roof panel is an insulated metal standing seam roof panel and is the foremost innovation in all-in-one composite roof panel design, combining durable interior and exterior faces with Metl-Span's unmatched polyurethane core. The CFR insulated metal standing seam roof panel is a truly unique answer to many deficiencies common with more traditional roofing materials of the past.
Metl-Span Backup Wall Systems is the ultimate backup wall system providing superior air, water, thermal and vapor protection in an all-in-one barrier component. It can be vertically and horizontally installed with nearly any type of exterior rainscreen system. This unique insulated metal wall panel system introduces new standards in cost savings, design integrity and sustainability.
Metl-Span’s line of Single-Skin panels includes ten configurations for wall applications and one for soffit application. The line consists of concealed fastener panels with 12” to 16” module widths and exposed fastener panels with module widths of 32” and 36”. The Artisan Soffit panels come in 8”, 10” or 12” widths.
The Metl-Span Resource section contains all standard CAD details, product literature and information regarding FM Global Requirements. Visitors may also view project photos, learn about online continuing education courses and find answers to the most frequently asked questions.
Metl-Span offers one of the most in-depth installer training programs in our industry. This program is dedicated to helping installers understand how the long-term performance of the insulated metal panel system can be affected by the installer’s attention to detail. Metl-Span is committed to educating erectors in the proper use, methods and procedures for insulated metal wall and roof panel installation. This new and innovative method of training will be beneficial to installers interested in quality workmanship and expanding their skill base.
Metl-Span cold storage panels provide superior insulation for cold storage needs. We’re able to provide planes for interior and exterior wall and roofing insulation. These insulated cold storage panels are made from high-quality materials and designed to ensure the minimal amount of product loss possible.
Our cold storage panels can function as walls, ceilings and roofs for cooler, freezer and food processing buildings. Metl-Span offers the largest array of cold storage panel profiles and finishes, including FRP, USDA compliant, or Stainless Steel; providing you with the right panel for your building’s needs. In addition, our cold storage panels are ideal for dry goods warehouses and other controlled environment buildings where temperature control and insulation values are critical.
Some applications for these insulated cold storage panels include warehouses, walk in freezers, food and beverage processing facilities, pharmaceutical manufacturing and more.

Superior Insulating Value across the entire wall and roof area is assured with Metl-Span cold storage panels. They actually increase in “R” value as the mean core temperature of the panel decreases. This unique feature is attributed to the blowing agent used in the production of the panels to give them their high insulating qualities.
One-Step Installation process assures rapid completion of the wall and roof system. Factory fabricated composite panels are attached directly to the supporting structure and multiple steps to construct the insulated wall and roof are eliminated. Faster building completion means reduced construction and interim financing costs.
Impermeable Exterior and Interior Faces ensure the highest insulating values are maintained for the life of the building. Panels are manufactured with impermeable faces and when installed the insulation is completely encapsulated by metal trim that creates an impermeable membrane on all sides of the panel. The aged “R” values are comparable to the initial “R” values many years after the building’s original completion.
Class 1 Polyurethane Foam meets the requirements of the major model building codes for cold storage construction. Unlike panels with expanded polystyrene cores they will not produce a self-propagating fire. Local building codes may require automatic fire suppression systems for most installations.
Metl-Span Panels are Lightweight, yet very strong and durable attributing to reduced costs for erection and structural support.
