To avoid possible reflection differences (for metallic, special effect, naturAL, and spectra colours), it is recommended to install the panels in the same direction as marked on the protective peel-off-foil. Colour variations may occur between panels originating from different production batches. To ensure colour consistency, the total requirement for a project should be placed in one order.

Due to the production process, a displacement of the cover sheets of max. 2 mm to one side may occur along the longer sides of the panels if not specially trimmed.

Protective foil

• To avoid residuals of glue sticking to the surface of the panels due to UV radiation, it is recommended to remove the protective foil as soon as possible after the installation.
• The protective foils and the panel surfaces must not be marked using ink (marker), adhesive tapes or stickers, as the lacquered surfaces could be damaged by solvents or plasticizers.
• Make sure to remove the protective foil as soon as possible after installation as weathering for a longer period could make the foil difficult to remove.
• Cleaning and maintenance

Cleaning and Maintenance

The frequency of cleaning depends on the design and the degree of soiling. For further information, please refer to our brochure.

Storage / Handling

• Protect ALUCOBOND® pallets during storage against rain, penetration of moisture and condensation.
• Only pallets of identical size should be stacked, with a maximum of 6 pallets stacked on top of each other.
• Storage exceeding 6 months should be avoided, as it may become difficult to remove the protective foil.
• When stacking the panels nothing should be placed in between them, as this could produce marks on the panels.

Recycling

ALUCOBOND® can be fully recycled, i.e. both the core material and the aluminium cover sheets can be recycled and used for the production of new material.
