1. Structural difference
Aluminum composite panel (ACP) is composed of two layers of aluminum plates sandwiched with polyethylene (PE) or fireproof mineral core material in the middle. It is lighter overall and easier to process and install.
Aluminum veneer (Solid Aluminum Panel) is processed from a single layer of aluminum alloy plate, which is usually thicker and stronger, and is suitable for scenes with higher requirements for weather resistance.
2. Performance comparison
Aluminum composite panel is light in weight and has excellent processing performance. It can be easily bent, carved and cut, and is suitable for a variety of modeling needs. Its fire resistance depends on the core material. B1 and A2 grade Aluminum composite panels can meet different fire protection requirements.
In contrast, aluminum veneers have higher strength and better weather resistance, are not easy to deform, and are made of metal with excellent fire resistance, making them suitable for building exterior walls exposed outdoors for a long time.
In addition, Aluminum composite panels are more cost-effective and have lower production and installation costs, so they are widely used in billboards, interior decoration, commercial exhibition halls and other fields.
Aluminum veneers are usually used in projects with higher quality requirements such as high-rise building curtain walls, airports, and subway stations due to their higher strength and durability.
3. How to choose the right material?
If your project requires lightweight, easy-to-process, colorful and moderately priced materials, Aluminum composite panels are an ideal choice.
If you are looking for higher strength, durability and fire resistance, aluminum veneers are more advantageous.
