Wall panels are components of a building enclosure or envelope system that may or may not contribute to the building`s structural system. Wall panels are available in different materials (e.g. wood, steel, aluminum, plastic or composites) and can be attached through a variety of methods, such as tongue and groove, overlap or gaskets.

Wall panels are considerably cost-efficient compared to traditional load-bearing wall systems and have satisfactory thermal and environmental performance.
