Learn to Choose the Best ACP Sheet For Exterior
For a new age construction, one of the pivotal concerns is understanding the 'skin of the architecture'. Given the extensive range of options available for external cladding, it is only obvious to get confused about the right choice. However, when you think about factors like durability, expense, and sustainability, aluminium composite panels or ACP sheets happen to be the most preferable solution.
But first, what is ACP?
ACP sheet, often referred to as sandwich board, is a composite panel that is made up of two extremely thin coated aluminium coils with FR or polyethene core. For urban architecture, builders and designers mostly prefer Aludecor's fire-retardant grade ACP sheets that can help you beat the fire. Airports, industrial buildings, hospitals, hotels, tunnels, and underground stations can effectively use this ACP sheet on their exterior to ensure minimal fire damage to the property and saving human lives. 
Durability
If you are planning to buy ACP cladding for your building's exterior, this is the first and most crucial point to take into account. It goes without saying that the building's façade is vulnerable to weather conditions including rain, heat, and other environmental factors. No matter how severe the weather becomes, aluminium composite panels are chemically strong to withstand their shape, size and lustre. That is why, whether it is a dry and arid region or a coastal town, choosing ACP never goes wrong. With Aludecor’s broad range of shades and textures, you can find your perfect choice of exterior ACP sheets .
Colour  
Depending on the type of the project - commercial or residential, the colour choices for the building will vary. Aludecor has a wide range of options for its exterior facade and each of them is impressive in its own way. While some might want to follow the latest trends in designs and shades, others might adhere to the Vastu Sastra rules when it comes to picking the colour.
The other important thing is if the exterior complements the interior of the building. The look and feel of the building is a vital contributing factor that should command the external appearance. 
Also, when you look around your neighbouring structures and scenery, that can also add to the design quotient of the façade. It means, if a hotel or resort is placed surrounding the lush greenery, the external appearance can be made in sync with the green shades. If it is an urban project, like a mall or a skyscraper, the Rustic or Timber series of Aludecor can be a wonderful choice of application. 
Installation and maintenance
Apart from making the structure visually appealing, aluminium composite panels are easy to install. For instance, the Male-Female Rainscreen system (MFR) technique is extremely practical to install and has proven to reduce the force of wind-driven water flow. This means, even with an easy installation procedure, one can protect the structure from the wrath of extreme weather conditions. Consequently, the installation lasts longer, the building remains intact for more years, and this leads to lesser expenditure in repair and remodelling.
And whenever you need to clean the façade, all you need is a piece of cloth to wipe out the dust and dirt.
