Insulated Metal Panels Information

Premium Insulated Metal Panels

Insulated metal panels (IMPs) are one of the premium products that National Steel Buildings specializes in. Insulated metal panels are ideal for many wall and roofing applications, including architectural, commercial, industrial, and institutional markets. NSB’s insulated metal panels offer excellent R-value and improve energy efficiency, while also having many exterior coatings and colors to meet your architectural and design needs.

Cost-Effective Solution

IMPs cut costs across the entire design and construction cycle because they deliver the functionalities of several different products in one pre-assembled piece. IMPs contain their own thermal and moisture barriers, and they’re available in a wide variety of colors, widths, profiles, and finishes.

Fast Installation

Prefabricated steel panels come cut to size with factory-applied fasteners and sealants, so there’s no need for cutting or welding on site. This shortens your construction timeline and the number of workers needed for the project. Crews can even continue installation on rainy days.

Sustainability and Environmental Benefits

IMPs are known for their sustainability and environmental friendliness. They offer robust protection against the elements with a strong thermal and moisture barrier. Alongside their high energy efficiency, they’re approximately 90% recyclable, providing an excellent return on investment.

Perfect For Every Application

Architectural

High-end buildings requiring superior aesthetics, energy efficiency, and design flexibility with premium finishes and contemporary profiles.

Commercial & Industrial

Warehouses, cold storage facilities, manufacturing plants, and retail buildings needing maximum insulation and rapid installation.

Institutional

Schools, hospitals, and government facilities requiring high-performance building envelopes that meet strict energy codes and sustainability standards.

Insulated Metal Panel FAQs

Yes, steel buildings from National Steel Buildings are designed and engineered to meet local building codes and requirements. Our buildings are engineered to comply with the International Building Code (IBC) and are designed to meet specific local requirements including wind loads, snow loads, and seismic requirements based on your building location. We provide all necessary engineering drawings and documentation required for building permits. It’s important to work with your local building department early in the process to ensure all requirements are met. Our team has extensive experience working with building departments across the country and can help guide you through the permitting process.

The construction timeline for a steel building depends on several factors including the size and complexity of the building, site preparation requirements, and weather conditions. Generally, pre-engineered steel buildings can be constructed much faster than traditional buildings. The manufacturing process typically takes 4-8 weeks after order approval, and on-site erection can often be completed in just a few days to a few weeks depending on the building size. Smaller buildings may be erected in 1-3 days, while larger commercial or industrial facilities may take 2-6 weeks. Our experienced erection crews at ProTrades, LLC, an NSB Company, work efficiently to ensure your building is completed on schedule.

The cost of metal buildings varies significantly based on several factors including size, location, design complexity, and additional features. Generally, steel buildings are more cost-effective than traditional construction methods. Factors that influence pricing include building dimensions (width, length, height), wall and trim color selections, insulation requirements, doors and windows, and local building codes. At National Steel Buildings, we offer factory-direct pricing that can save you thousands compared to traditional construction. We recommend using our online quote tool to get an accurate price for your specific building needs.

Your investment in an economical steel facility begins with high-performing steel building materials. High-quality, innovative materials ensure that your steel building can withstand extreme weather while maintaining a comfortable temperature.

Steel buildings are incredibly versatile and can be used for a wide variety of applications. Common uses include agricultural facilities (equipment storage, livestock stables, hay storage), commercial buildings (retail space, corporate headquarters), industrial facilities (warehouses, manufacturing plants), garages and auto repair shops, aviation hangars, boat storage facilities, churches and religious buildings, recreational buildings (gyms, sports facilities, riding arenas), and residential applications (workshops, barns, and even homes). The flexibility of steel building design allows for customization to meet virtually any need, from small personal storage buildings to large commercial and industrial facilities.

National Steel Buildings stands behind the quality of our products and services. We offer comprehensive warranties on our steel building systems. The specific warranty terms depend on the components and materials used in your building. Typically, our steel building systems come with manufacturer warranties covering materials and workmanship. Paint and finish warranties are also included, often ranging from 20 to 40 years depending on the coating system selected. We recommend discussing warranty details with your sales representative during the quoting process to understand the specific warranty coverage for your building. Our commitment to quality and customer satisfaction means we work to resolve any issues that may arise during and after construction.

Steel buildings offer numerous advantages over traditional construction methods. They are highly durable, resistant to fire, pests, and extreme weather conditions. Steel buildings are cost-effective with lower construction costs, reduced insurance premiums, and minimal maintenance expenses. They also feature quick construction times due to pre-engineered designs, meaning faster delivery and installation compared to traditional buildings. Additionally, steel requires minimal upkeep and resists rot, mold, and corrosion for years to come.
