What Is Aluminium Composite Panel?

Aluminum Composite Panel (ACP) is a multi-layered architectural decorative panel known for its lightweight, high strength, and easy workability. Here are its key features:


1. Basic Structure

  • Surface Layers: Two aluminum sheets (typically 0.2~0.5mm thick) with painted or laminated finishes for diverse colors and textures.

  • Core Layer: A polyethylene (PE) or fire-resistant mineral core (e.g., non-combustible A2/B1 grade), providing sound insulation, thermal insulation, and cushioning.


2. Key Features

  • Lightweight: Weighs only 1/3 of solid aluminum panels, reducing structural load.

  • Weather Resistance: UV-resistant and corrosion-proof for long-term outdoor use.

  • Fire Safety: Fire-resistant ACPs with mineral cores meet A2-grade non-combustible standards.

  • Workability: Can be cut, bent, or punched for complex designs.


3. Primary Applications

  • Building Facades: Widely used for high-rise exteriors (e.g., offices, malls).

  • Interior Decor: Ceilings, partitions, signage.

  • Transportation: Interior panels for subways and high-speed trains.


4. Comparison with Similar Products

  • vs Aluminum Single Panels: ACPs are lighter and more cost-effective, but solid aluminum panels (no core) are fully recyclable.

  • vs Aluminum Honeycomb Panels: Honeycomb panels have hexagonal cores for higher strength but are more expensive.
