Aluminium Composite Panels (ACP) are a strong, rigid,

lightweight, flat solution for many applications

especially the Sign Industry as well as Display, POS

Displays (Point of Sale), Shop-Fitting and Exhibitionuse. Other uses include partitioning, suspended

ceilings and wall lining/cladding plus applications in

transport. Hoarding Board is specifically for use in

enclosing building sites.

Aalcopanel ACP is designed for use in interior and

exterior applications where high load-bearing capacity

is not required.

All Aalcopanel panels have a PE (Polyethylene)

Thermoplastic core and two Skins of Aluminium Alloy

1100.

Overall thickness is 3.0mm.

The Aluminium Skins are finished with Polyester (PE)

Paint.

Both painted Skins are PVC Coated with Hi-Tack 50

micron film.

Unit Weight is 3.8kg per square metre

AalcoPanel ACP Panels carry a 10-year manufacturer's

Groove 135 (v-shaped) oredges up to 90

can be shaped by means o a simpleprocessing technique. This procedure, the routing and

olding technique, enables the variety o shapes and sizes

to be manuactured. V-shaped or rectangular grooves are

routed on the rear o the panels with disk end or milling

cutters, whereby the aluminium cover sheet at the ront

and part o the polyethylene core are retained.

The grooves can be produced with either a panel

saw or a routing tool.
