Omega-Lite® and Thermolite™ metal wall panels from Laminators Inc. of Hatfield, PA, were used to enhance the appearance and energy efficiency of the exterior envelope of the Crowne Plaza in Niagara Falls, NY. The project’s design team included Anthony Diguiseppe of New York City and LBM Architects of Poughkeepsie, NY.

Omega-Lite® is an aluminum composite material panel while Thermolite™ is a lightweight insulated panel. Available in a wide range of colors, they were provided with a Royal Blue paint finish to accent the building’s red brick. Sterling Glass of Buffalo, NY, handled the installation. The Walter S. Johnson Building Company of Niagara Falls was the general contractor.
