What it is

Product overview

QuadCore Optimo is a flat-profile insulated metal wall panel in Kingspan’s current US catalogue. Kingspan identifies horizontal and vertical applications, embossed or non-embossed exterior options, and integration with selected KS Series profiles through a common joint.

It is a building-envelope option for projects seeking a flat panel appearance while retaining an insulated panel assembly. Module, finish, support, attachment, joint, movement, fire, and interface requirements must be taken from current project documents.
