Horizon Glass delivers superior metal panel systems and comprehensive building envelope solutions across Colorado. Our expert team combines innovative materials with precision installation to create durable, energy-efficient, and aesthetically striking building exteriors that withstand Colorado’s unique climate challenges.
Colorado buildings benefit from several metal panel options including: aluminum composite material (ACM) panels for lightweight versatility; insulated metal panels (IMPs) for superior thermal performance in mountain regions; corrugated and ribbed panels for industrial applications; zinc and copper panels for premium architectural designs; and standing seam systems for roofing applications. Each type offers different performance characteristics suitable for Colorado’s varied climate zones.
A Colorado building envelope contractor specializes in designing, engineering, and installing the exterior systems that separate interior and exterior environments. This includes metal panel cladding, curtain walls, waterproofing, air barriers, and insulation systems. In Colorado’s challenging climate, these specialists ensure buildings remain energy efficient despite temperature extremes, prevent moisture infiltration during snow melt cycles, and maintain structural integrity against high winds and UV exposure.
Yes, metal panels are exceptionally energy efficient for Colorado buildings. They reflect solar radiation in summer, reducing cooling loads, while insulated metal panel systems provide superior thermal resistance during cold winters. Many systems incorporate continuous insulation that eliminates thermal bridging. In Colorado’s mountain regions where heating costs are significant, properly installed metal panel systems can reduce energy consumption by 20-30%, offering excellent return on investment while helping buildings meet Colorado’s increasingly stringent energy codes.
