Product Properties

alucore-panel

ALUCORE® is an innovative aluminium composite panel consisting of two aluminium cover sheets and a core of aluminium.

ALUCORE® comes in 2 variants ALUCORE® ACCP and ALUCORE® Honeycomb. ALUCORE® features marine grade corrosion resistance alloy 5005 H24 for durability. The PVDF/FEVE coating as per AAMA 2605 ensures long term performance and protection from UV radiation and weathering .

 

ALUCORE® is an aluminium composite panel consisting of two cover sheets and a honeycomb core of aluminium.
Following in the footsteps of the world-wide established ALUCOBOND® trademark, ALUCORE® is also a composite material for a variety of applications in transport industry and architecture, showing excellent product properties such as extraordinary flatness, large variety of colours and high formability.The aluminium honeycomb core gives the composite panel a high rigidity and an extremely low weight. ALUCORE® therefore provides the decisive advantage where very high demands are made on the material for applications such as façade cladding or roofing, e.g. if exposed to extremely high wind load and for large self-supporting roofs.ALUCORE® is the first lightweight panel that you, too, will absolutely insist as being: a bond for life.

WHY CHOOSE ALUCORE®

ALUCORE® stands out as a premier choice for cladding, offering distinct advantages over both traditional metal
cladding options (such as aluminium, steel, zinc, copper) and non-metal alternatives like stone, tiles and
High-Pressure Laminates (HPL). Its exceptional properties make it the ideal solution for demanding applications
where top-tier performance is crucial.

 

 

 

KEY BENEFITS OF ALUCORE®

  • Superior Wind Resistance: Engineered to endure high wind load pressures, ALUCORE® offers an
    exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, ensuring reliability even in the most challenging conditions.
  • Load-bearing Capacity: Provides strong support for self-supporting roofs, with panel thickness 15mm and
    above capable of handling human traffic during maintenance, ideal for roofing applications.
  • Large Panel Sizes: Capable of extended panel dimensions offering both design flexibility and cost
    efficiency.
  • Unmatched Flatness: Features absolute flatness, providing a sleek, modern aesthetic that enhances
    any architectural design.
  • Superior Acoustic and Thermal Insulation: Offers excellent sound and heat absorption, contributing to
    a more comfortable and energy-efficient environment

ALUCORE® ACCP

ALUCORE ACCP, the Aluminium Corrugated Core Panel is a light weight cladding material with a corrugated
aluminium core sandwiched between two aluminium skins making it highly rigid. Devoid of any thermoplastic
core, it is perfectly suitable for projects with stringent fire regulations. ALUCORE ACCP offers unmatched flatness
enhancing the beauty of buildings. The panels are easily formable using common processing methods giving
architects flexibility to execute complex designs.

 

PRODUCT RANGE:

Panel Thickness: 4mm and 6mm
Width: 1250mm, 1500mm
Length: ≤6000mm

ALUCORE® HONEYCOMB

ALUCORE® honeycomb is a unique panel with a honeycomb shaped aluminium core embedded between two
aluminium skins. The product is a true representation of an advanced sandwich composite. The ultra-low weight
of the core and the increased distance between the cover sheets gives it extra rigidity while keeping its weight
extremely low. This results into an unmatched strength-to-weight ratio.

ALUCORE® HONEYCOMB therefore, has a definite advantage when it comes to projects with high demands
on material stiffness such as facade cladding or roofing where it is exposed to extremely high wind loads, or for
large self-supporting and even walkable roofs.

 

PRODUCT RANGE:

Panel Thickness: 10mm, 15mm, 20mm, 25mm
(other thickness available upon request)
Width: 1250mm, 1500mm
Length: ≤6000mm

COMPARATIVE FLEXURE RIGIDITY

COMPARATIVE FLEXURE RIGIDITY

    • The graph illustrates the rigidity of different materials while keeping the weight identical
      ~5Kg/sqm.

 

    • ALUCORE® shows much higher strength-to-weight ratio compared to other materials. By prioritizing materials with low weight and high rigidity, architects can enhance structural integrity while minimizing the load-bearing requirements, thus contributing to more efficient and sustainable building designs.

 

    • This strategic approach not only ensures the structural stability of the facade but also enables architects to explore more innovative and aesthetically pleasing designs without
      compromising on safety or durability.
