WHAT IS ALUMINUM HONEYCOMB PANEL
An aluminum honeycomb panel is a lightweight, high-strength building material made by bonding thin aluminum sheets to a core structured like a honeycomb.
- Lightweight: up to 80% lighter than solid aluminum sheets
- Strong: high stiffness-to-weight ratio
- Durable: resistant to corrosion, fire, and weather
- Versatile: used in construction, transportation, furniture, and marine applications
Panel Core
At its core, the aluminum honeycomb panel is a sandwich-like structure. Its central component consists of a honeycomb lattice made from aluminum, forming a series of hexagonal cells. This intricate arrangement delivers exceptional mechanical properties, enabling the panel to maintain its strength while being significantly lighter than solid aluminum sheets. These honeycomb cores are then bonded between two outer layers of aluminum sheets using advanced adhesion techniques.
Panel Structure
The key attribute that sets aluminum honeycomb panels apart is their impressive strength-to-weight ratio. This means that despite their lightweight nature, they can bear substantial loads and resist bending or buckling. This quality has made them invaluable in applications where weight reduction is critical without compromising structural integrity.

CPL / HPL Panels
Laminates(CPL or HPL) are manufactured with state-of-the-art laminate technology, consist of cellulose fiber sheets impregnated with thermo setting resins.It is manufactured in two forms as HPL and CPL.The difference between CPL and HPL lies in the material thickness and in the manufacturing process. CPL stands for Continuous Pressed Laminates and HPL for High Pressure Laminates.

Q1: How strong are aluminum honeycomb panels?
They offer high stiffness and compressive strength while remaining lightweight. A 10–20 mm honeycomb panel can outperform many solid materials in bending resistance.
Q2: Is an aluminum honeycomb panel fireproof?
Aluminum honeycomb panels are fire-resistant, not completely fireproof.
- The aluminum skin and core are non-combustible materials.
- Panels can achieve Class A fire ratings under ASTM E84 or EN 13501-1 standards.
- Surface finishes (e.g., PVDF, coatings, or veneers) may affect fire performance, so always confirm specifications for high-rise or public projects.
Q3: What sizes are available?
- Standard thickness: 6 mm to 30 mm
- Panel sizes: up to 1500 mm × 6000 mm (custom available)
Q4: How do aluminum honeycomb panels compare with aluminum composite panels (ACP/ACM)?
- ACP/ACM: plastic (PE) or mineral-filled core, cheaper, lighter duty
- Aluminum Honeycomb Panel: aluminum core, stronger, more rigid, higher-end applications
Q5: What are the surface options?
- PVDF coating for exterior use
- Powder coating for color flexibility
- Veneers: marble, granite, wood, or custom print
