The SLENDERWALL® panel system allows the design freedom to create a lasting impression.
- Uses time-tested, proven components.
- Provides the permanence of architectural precast concrete. It will not dent, rust, burn, warp or delaminate.
- Offers custom shapes and sizes, radii, bull noses, reveals and returns manufactured to tight tolerances in year-round climate-controlled factories.
- Designed for load-bearing or curtain wall applications.
"I started the trend of using SLENDERWALL® on high rise buildings in New York City. I think that the SLENDERWALL® system will be used on
many buildings in New York in the future."

The SLENDERWALL® panel system ends your search for an exterior cladding system that will eliminate wall failures forever.
- Reduces structural steel and foundation requirements when compared to conventional methods.
- Designed to endure structural challenges such as buidling frame lateral displacement, beam and floor deflection, column shortening and long-term creep.
- Eliminates corrosion by utilizing corrosion-proof and rust-proof materials.
- Specially formulated precast concrete mix provides a maintenance-free, waterproof panel that minimizes vapor infiltration.
- Major cost savings on cantilevered structure designs.

"What attracted us to this product is the 2-inch thick precast concrete in an economical panelized format with steel-stud backup. This significantly reduced the cost of the structural frame and foundation required to support this much lighter system.
Thus, we could achieve the beauty of a precast concrete of masonry exterior in a more cost-effective and efficient manner.
Currently we are on our fifth project using SLENDERWALL®."

The SLENDERWALL® panel system is a permanent, lightweight, cost-and-time saving exterior wall system.
- Eliminates staggering recladding costs and responsibility battles by using permanent components.
- Lightweight panels are 30 lbs. per square foot, including the heavy-gauge steel framing.
- Reduces installation time and costs by up to 50% due to exclusive Lift-and-Release™ panel-landing system.
- Reduces construction costs because smaller cranes can be used during installation.
- Reduces on-site weather costs and delays as well as on-site construction deris.
- Reduces shipping costs by 60% since more lightweight panels can be shipped on each load.
- Increases leasable floor space income by monting panels outboard of floor slab.
No job-site delays - panels are prefabricated and ready for delivery and installation.
