What you can use aluminium composite for.

The applications for aluminium composite are wide and varied. A versatile lightweight and durable material aluminium composite performs well for internal and external applications.

Much lighter than other metal and plastic sheet aluminium composite allows the creation of lightweight yet strong structures. Manufactured from plastic and aluminium this material is easy to handle and simple to machine.

 

If you are currently using sheet metal then aluminium composite is perfect for your application. Metal effect aluminium composite has the look of real metal yet is over half the weight. For sheet metal applications aluminium composite is also much easier to shape and finish- if you need to cut apertures then simple wood working tools are all that's required. Cutting holes for wall sockets in aluminium composite for example is very easy to accomplish- unlike trying to cut out neat shapes in real metal.

Aluminium composite can be folded without the need for break presses!

A popular application for aluminium composite is folded structures. From sign trays to fascia panels and column cladding aluminium composite is easy to form and light enough to install easily.

Using the correct type of tooling aluminium composite can be scored and then folded. We have 90 degree and 135 degree tooling which allows you to bend, by hand to these angles.

Because aluminium composite comes complete with a factory paint or decorative finish there is simply no need to spend time on expensive paint treatments. For on site work you can leave the protective carrier tape on your aluminium composite structure and simply peel off when the site is ready to "go live". This protects your aluminium composites from dust, dirt and over painting during the construction process.
