■ Features |
Lightweight
Architecks® aluminum composite panel weigh 1/3 of same thickness of aluminum sheet, porcelain enamel, steel and stainless steel.
It saves building load and saves basic ferroconcrete.
Flatness
Sandwich type lightweight Architecks® aluminum composite material is only 4.0mm thickness with 0.5mm two sheet of aluminum and foaming polymer resin with patent.
Such sandwich structure has excellent flatness rather than single sheet in same thickness.
Sound proof & heat Insulation
ARCHITECKS® ACM has triple layer structure and shows excellent ability not only physical external impact but also soundproof effect. Also patented polyethylene foam core includes many closed cells in the core thus it helps thermal nsulation between inner and outside temperature gaps.
Durability
The outer surface of Architecks® is treated by roll coating technology, not by spray gun type. Roll coating method gives good effect for uniformity of color and everlasting durability.
Fluorine paint can endure on worst external condition of rain, snow, ultraviolet rays, infrared rays etc. Also PVdF paint has supplied by PPG Inc which was tested in Florida beach test under the strong sunshine conditions.
Workability
ARCHITECKS® ACM has sound workability, adhesive strength, bending strength and peel strength and so on.
These characteristics make it easy handling like R-bending, cutting, clipping without any damages on composite panel surface.
Variety of color choice
Since 1987, we have been supplied ARCHITECKS aluminum composite material locally and internationally.
Such experience makes us to choose favorite colors to common people. We always some quantity of pre-painted coils to produce as soon as we got order from all over the world, that is the fast way to reduce the lead time.

■ Precaution |
- When ordering
When an Architecks® aluminum composite panel required, usually 4~6 weeks needed. We can match any color of RAL or Pittsburgh color system if some more time available.
In case of match the new color, we need an approval time from end-user, and some quantity needed, for example, 2500 square meters for one color.
Somewhat same lot of color can be slightly different from lot by lot. So please to be put same lot in same project.
- When stocking and handling
Architecks® panel should be put parallel with little windy and obscurity. When stacking in parallel, no more than 1 metric tons and use the panel within 6 month from the manufacturing date.
Sometimes the protective film on the panel occurs sticky on the panel itself with heavy load stacking and long periods of stacking.
- When fabricating and installing
When making shop drawing of the panel, consider the panel putting on arrow mark direction on the sub-frame especially metallic colors. If not followed by arrow mark on protection film, the color will be looking different because of shinning angle.
When fabricating of an Architecks panel, do not remove protective film because of scratches during the machine runs.
After installation and corking, do remove the protection film as soon as possible. In case of long periods of leaving the panel with protection film, adhesive contents of the protective film can be remain on the panel itself.
When installing and edge taping for sealants, please use solvent free tapes. For example, 3M Tartan paper tape is the good choice for this case.
When cleaning the panel, use lukewarm or soap with sponge or soft fabric. Please do not use acid, alkali, MEK, thinnerr PVdF including detergents.
