Description
The aluminium composite sheets (sandwich sheets) from Kunststof Forte Belgium are plastic sheets that are increasingly being used in the advertising and construction sectors and at home.
Aluminium composite has a modern appearance. It consists of 3 layers: 2 outer layers of aluminium, with an intermediate layer of polyethylene. This is why it is often called sandwich plates.
The sandwich panels are available in 3 mm thickness, whereby the aluminium top and bottom layer remain the same thickness, but the PE inner core varies in thickness. The sheets are available in different colours such as red, blue, white, green, black, yellow, anthracite,...
Aluminium composite is very sturdy, durable and lightweight. They are also UV- and weather-resistant, making them suitable for both interior and exterior applications.
Due to its low weight, it is much easier to process and sheet than a more solid aluminium sheet of equal thickness. The sheets are easy to process by drilling, sawing and milling.
They are often used for billboards, stand construction, football boards, signage, displays, photomontage, lettering, shop fitting, interior design.
Aluminium sandwich panel colour - Applications
The Aluminium Sandwich Panel in various colours with a thickness of 3 mm can be used for many applications, for example, in interior applications such as a kitchen back wall or a shower wall.
Several applications are also possible on the exterior, such as advertising signs, fascias or facade cladding.
You can customise it to suit your needs in terms of colour and application, thanks to the wide range of colours available. The possibilities are endless. Also, each plate has a matt and a glossy side.
The sheets can also be used outside if they are framed. This way, you can enjoy them for years.
The material is also easy to process and very simple for you to do yourself. The sheets are light, strong, rigid and particularly flat, making them very easy to use.
