The aluminum honeycomb is light, resistant to compression and cuts, has excellent fire reaction (incombustibility) performaces and resists to corrosion, mould and it is recyclable.
Aluminium honeycomb as panels’ core has several advantages:
lightweight
stiffness
good fire reaction
compression, shear and corrosion resistance
flatness
As core material, aluminium honeycomb is used in sandwich panels and it is utilised in: floors, roofs, doors, partitions, facades, working surfaces for automatic machines, laser jet cutting and for all products which require an optimal stiffness-to-weight-ratio.
Aluminium honeycomb is used for several of applications (i.e. for tool machines, for serigraphy..etc.) and in different sectors such as: public transport industry,nautical sector, building industry, etc… It is used as deflector for laminar flow-ventilation, and as crash-absorber for kinetic energy.
The aluminum honeycomb has passed several fire reaction tests: it was considered incombustible according to the FTP Code 2010, obtaining the IMO Med, Mod B and D. certification, the A1 for building according to the 13501-1 standard , and the M0 according to the French standard NF-P 92-501-1995.
Certified version Aluminium honeycomb must be required while asking for a quotation and might have a price surcharge due to certified materials.
