Description
An aluminium composite board with a UV-cured decorative face: a metal skin over a mineral-filled core. Unlike a board on MDF, it stays flat and rigid without a heavy substrate behind it.
Those two properties are why it is specified. The panel stays flat over a large area, so a long wall lining or a tall column casing reads as a plane instead of showing the wave a board develops; and it does not move when the room’s humidity changes, which is where MDF gives trouble over a season. It is used for interior wall linings, column casings and cabinet fronts, with the same UV-cured face range as the standard board. It is lighter than an equivalent MDF panel but a thin sheet will take a set if it is leaned against a wall, so it should be stored and handled flat. Fixing is by bond or mechanical fixing depending on the substrate, though a large panel usually wants a rail or frame for alignment rather than being set out by eye. The edge is the detail to plan: a cut edge shows the composite core, so it takes a trim or band, and on a column casing that edge is on display.
Confirm the panel size, the substrate and the edge detail when you order, since a composite panel is less forgiving of a poor setting-out than a board is.
Where it is used
Tall column casings
A casing that reads as a plane rather than a board with a wave
Long wall linings
Where a board would show a joint and a composite reads as one sheet
Lift and stair surrounds
Panels that have to stay flat against a hard-used surface
Kitchen and bathroom cabinet fronts
A face that does not move when the room's humidity does
Frequently asked
What is the minimum order?
1 × 20ft container, mixed across products where the mix suits the project. A sample box can be arranged before the first container.
Can I see a sample before ordering?
Yes. Send the product and the size you are specifying, and we will confirm the sample and the lead time for it.
Why choose an aluminium core over MDF?
Flatness and humidity. The panel stays flat over a large area without a heavy substrate, and it does not move when the room's humidity changes. That matters on a long wall lining or a tall column casing where a board would show a wave.
Is it heavy?
Lighter than the equivalent MDF panel for the same size, because the core is a composite. Handle it by the edges and store it flat, since a thin panel will take a set if it is leaned.
Can it be fixed to a wall without a frame?
It can be bonded or mechanically fixed depending on the substrate, but a large panel usually wants a frame or a rail for alignment. Tell us the wall and we will confirm the fixing.
Does the aluminium edge need treatment?
Yes. A cut edge shows the composite core, so it takes a trim or an edge band. On a column casing that detail is visible and worth planning.
