A FAMILY OF SYSTEMS THAT COMPLEMENTS—NEVER COMPETES
PORTALWALL® + ACTIVE-WALL™ + DELUGEWALL™ + ZUZALOGIC™ + ZUZATHERM™
This isn't a replacement for traditional facades—it's their essential counterpart, filling in as the often-overlooked detail that completes what facades have the power to initiate and execute.
PORTALWALL® and its integrated systems were designed from the outset to wrap around, support, and elevate high-performance glass systems—not to compete with them.
5 Pillars of Complementary Innovation
- PORTALWALL® – Wraps opaque zones, slab edges, and spandrel areas with precision insulation and modular aesthetic finishes.
- ACTIVE-WALL™ – Brings airflow to the wall cavity via Active-Portals™, creating pressurized microclimates that prevent mold and condensation. At the core of this strategy is FIGURE-9B™ Technology—named for Figure 9B in Yonatan Zvi Margalit’s patent filings—which illustrates how conditioned air is distributed through discreet vertical cavities to form a self-regulating, warm air curtain. This helps stabilize interior climate, dry cavity zones, and protect against hidden moisture buildup.
Where others insisted we place insulation, Yonatan said, "We have the opportunity to promote airflow—why let it go?" Figure 9B was an inflection point, a complete break from conventional thinking. It redefined how building enclosures manage moisture and thermal risk. The world needs to know how big this is.
- DELUGEWALL™ – Integrates smart wetting systems for fire-hardening and thermal dissipation in combustible or overheated exterior conditions.
- ZUZALOGIC™ – The intelligent backbone: a proprietary control and sensing layer that harmonizes moisture, airflow, and fire-prep responses.
- ZUZATHERM™ – A breakthrough concept by Yonatan Zvi Margalit, first outlined in his early patent filings and 2019 NYSERDA competition documents, and now advancing in collaboration with a world-recognized manufacturer, ZUZATHERM™, quiet, efficient, and discreet, integrates advanced heat pump technologies directly into the building envelope. It uses the exterior wall surface as a dynamic thermal field, generating a virtual air barrier—a warm protective layer that mitigates dew point risks and eliminates mold potential in vast, concealed zones of the building. ZUZATHERM™ also introduces the first-ever condensate collection system via an integrated mounting trough and sub-sill, enabling seamless drainage and intelligent moisture control within the enclosure.
A Platform That Plugs the Gaps
Curtainwalls, windows, and window-walls can be beautiful—but they are often incomplete.
Without intelligent treatment of opaque zones, thermal discontinuities, moisture traps, and fire risks remain unsolved.
This platform plugs the gap, complements the façade, and transforms the entire enclosure into a smart, resilient, climate-ready skin.
