ALUCOBOND® A2

ACROSS THE WORLD, ALUCOBOND® A2 is the only non-combustible aluminum composite panel used in architecture.

Due to its non-combustible core, this fantastic product meets stringent fire regulations and hugely increases the possibilities when it comes to creative building design.

As with all ALUCOBOND® products, ALUCOBOND® A2 allows for simple processing, is impact-resistant, break-proof, and weatherproof – and above all non-combustible.

ALUCOBOND® A2 is the only non-combustible aluminium composite panel used in architecture world-wide. Due to its non combustible core ALUCOBOND® A2 meets the high requirements of the fire regulations and enhances the possibilities for the concept and design of buildings.

ALUCOBOND® A2, as indeed all the products of the ALUCOBOND® family, allows simple processing, is impact-resistant, break-proof and weatherproof and, above all, non-combustible.

ALUCOBOND® A2 can be bended using bending press.
  • The minimum required radius is r = 25 x t (t = panel thickness)
  • The spring-back effect of ALUCOBOND®A2 is greater than that of a solid aluminium sheet.
  • The die edges should be rounded and smooth.
  • To prevent damage to the panel surface, the protective foil must not be removed during bending.
  • Additionally, the visible surface can be protected by using plastic pads of 1-2mm thickness
  • Ideal die width: 2 x t + 2 x protective foil thickness + punch diameter + 15mm
  • Before scaled-up production, testing on the sample panels is recommended.
