Star Buildings Insulated Panels
Metl-Span architectural panels serve as walls and roofs for high-profile applications in new and retrofit construction.
Metl-Span's foamed-in-place technology offers the most thermally efficient architectural panels available, placed outboard of the structural supports for a continutous barrier with no compressed insulation or thermal bridges. Most panel profiles may be installed either horizontally or vertically with concealed clips and fasteners in the side joint for a beautiful flush appearance.

CFR Roof Panels
CFR Roof Panels
Metl-Span CFR is an insulated metal standing seam roof panel, and is the foremost innovation in all-in-one composite panel design, combining durable interior and exterior faces with Metl-Span's unmatched polyurethane core. The CFR roof panel provides exceptional benefits including a standing seam exterior face for unsurpassed weathertight performance, and panel widths contributing to installation savings because there are fewer side joints to seal. CFR roof panels are installed completely from the top side with concealed clips and fasteners placed in the side joint. Cold Storage applications may require alternate methods of attachment. Factory cut panel ends, factory notching and factory swaged ends eliminate critical and extensive field reworking and reduce erection costs. Factory installed backer plates at the endlaps also eliminate pre-drilling for special fasteners and fastener tools. Careful design parameters have enabled Metl-Span to create an incomparable roof system that is easily and quickly installed without dependence on highly skilled labor.
