New and innovative building materials continue to prove their potential to change the industry. Among these products are aluminum honeycomb panels, which are known for their ease of installation, straightforward surface treatment, and enhanced performance. Growth in the global market size of such products is projected from USD 357 million in 2016 to USD 741.7 million in 2023 at an 11.014% CAGR from 2017 to 2023. The industry thrives as the material becomes increasingly sought-after across various markets.
What makes the material better than others?
Aluminum honeycomb panels are made up of two layers of aluminum sheets and between these is an aluminum honeycomb core. The sandwiched structure is bonded by thermoplastic adhesive films to create a full composite panel that is robust and lightweight. That makes the material cost-effective and ideal for specific applications, such as ceiling, cladding, and flooring, as well as for specialized projects in the marine and transportation sectors.
The panels can be customized with special treatments, such as powder coating, PVDF, heat transfer printing, and PE to meet specific aesthetic requirements. Reputable manufacturers apply mature production techniques, which allow them to produce odd-shaped honeycomb aluminum panels, including those with a 90-degree return, curved, or 3D panels.
An aluminum honeycomb panel is made of recyclable material, making it environmentally friendly for a wide range of industries, like engineering. The material has good fireproof and mechanical properties that allowed it to go into the railway and shipbuilding sectors.
How it’s changing the construction industry
The demand for aluminum honeycomb panels continues to increase at a steady rate because of the construction industry. The materials are in high demand for applications like facades, floors, interior walls, shelving, and tables. The excellent properties of the material make it preferred for artistic and innovative wall claddings and ceilings, too.
For weight-changing applications
The aluminum honeycomb panel is widely used in the Aerospace industry as the material offers an enhanced strength-to-weight ratio compared to other materials. So far, it is used in projects involving aircraft, rockets, propellers, and jet engines. Aluminum honeycomb panels are also practical in non-aerospace applications, such as the manufacture of wind turbine blades.
Be sure to get aluminum honeycomb panels from a reputable manufacturer that can customize them to suit your specific requirements. Just talk to them about your design and they will work closely with you to deliver the materials you need.
