According to Talon Wall Holdings LLC, a recent lawsuit initiated by Reflection Window and Wall, LLC and its affiliates against Chicago Heights Glass Inc., Entekk Group LTD, Talon Wall Holdings LLC, and Kurt LeVan (collectively referred to as the CHG Parties) has been resolved.
The complaint, which centered on fire safety concerns related to the Talon Wall curtainwall system, has been dismissed.
The resolution of the lawsuit removes legal questions over Talon Wall, a patented aluminum and glass façade system developed by the CHG Parties.
Designed for commercial buildings, the Talon Wall system reportedly offers advantages in labor, materials, and installation costs for high-rise construction projects.
The Talon Wall façade system, created by the CHG Parties, incorporates a unitized design intended to streamline installation and reduce costs in commercial high-rise buildings.
As described by the developers, the system is engineered to be stronger and more affordable than traditional building facades.
Peerless Products Inc., a licensed partner of the CHG Parties, supports the production and national distribution of Talon Wall.
This system is marketed for its high performance, ease of installation, and cost efficiency, which reportedly distinguish it from standard façade options.
Talon Wall has been described by its developers as fully certified and listed, meeting fire safety standards required by the ASTM, UL, and NFPA.
The system includes a Patent Pending Firestop component, designed to comply with or exceed industry fire testing criteria, according to Talon Wall Holdings LLC.
The CHG Parties report that Talon Wall has undergone extensive testing to ensure compliance with relevant safety standards, which aligns with the curtainwall system’s intended use in large-scale commercial construction.
Chicago Heights Glass, Inc. and Entekk Group LTD, both located in Chicago’s southern suburbs, are privately owned firms specializing in large commercial construction.
Chicago Heights Glass operates as a specialty subcontractor, while Entekk Group provides design and manufacturing expertise for high-rise projects.
Peerless Products Inc., the licensed partner in Talon Wall’s distribution, offers additional product information on its website, accessible at peerlessproducts.com.
