Product overview

What this product is

Aluminium foil is bonded into a cellular core whose behaviour can be adjusted through alloy, foil thickness, cell size and supplied form. It can be specified as the core of a sandwich panel or as a prepared industrial component.

The catalogue lists uses including composite-panel production, lighting, filtration and purification, energy absorption and EMI shielding. Suitability still depends on the complete assembly, load case, environment and any required test documentation.

Specification highlights

  • Cell geometry and foil gauge can be selected around the intended assembly.
  • Micro-aperture options support controlled airflow, light and filtration work.
  • Expanded, cut-slice, full-block, slant and ventilation-panel supply forms are listed.
  • The same core platform supports multiple faced-sheet panel constructions.
