The decor of space is a reflection of one’s self and personality. With the dynamic nature of style and fashion, everybody wants to stay up-to-date with the progressing world. The material we want to introduce to our readers today speaks of many such qualities in its favour including Stylish, Sturdy and Lightweight, among others. We are talking about ACP or Aluminium Composite Panel created by compounding a middle layer of non-aluminium core between the top and bottom layers of a thin sheet of aluminium. ACP panel sheets can be further coated with PVDF or Polyester paint.

This modern material features plenty of practical and technical advantages. It comes with a total thickness ranging from 3mm to 6mm including the adhesive layers and glues.  Since its introduction in the architectural domain, ACP sheets have changed the interior and exterior outlook of many structures lending them a striking perspective.

Characteristics of  Aluminium Composite Panel or ACP Sheets

Aluminium Composite Panel or ACP is a new age material with ever-growing demand in the building construction industry. The material offers a widening range of options to builders and architects considering its various usages. Here are a few features of the ACP Cladding Sheet.
