ALPOLIC ALPOLIC/fr
Interior and Exterior
Interior ALPOLIC
Features
Interior ALPOLIC is a light and strong sheet
material. With the light specific gravity of 1.2
it can reduce weight by 40 compared with solid
aluminum sheet and by 70 of stainless steel with
the equivalent rigidity. Continuous laminating
process to laminate aluminum skins and core
material provides the excellent flatness of the
panel free of distortion and deflection. Cutting,
bending, curving and other procedures are easily
accomplished with aluminum working or wood
working machines. Compared with calcium silicate
board and gypsum board, Interior ALPOLIC cannot
be cracked and broken because of lamination with
aluminum skins and visco-elastic high molecular
resin. Compared with other materials of the same
weight (steel, aluminum, plywood, etc.) Interior
ALPOLIC has a larger sound transmission
loss. The coatings are applied with a continuous
coil coating line, and consistent coating quality
and hence, high performance can be expected in
corrosion resistance and weather-ability in
ALPOLIC PC Series and ALPOLIC PC Stone
Series, which can be applied for moist
rooms. Interior ALPOLIC has a good thermal
insulation effect due to the core material of
high molecular resin.

Exterior ALPOLIC/fr
Features
The continuous laminating process that combines
0.5 mm thick aluminum skins with the core
material results in excellent flatness of the
panel. The unique technology of the coil coating
process provides the best quality of color
uniformity, and no visible surface grain
lines. A light and strong sheet material with an
apparent specific gravity of 1.2 to 2.0, reducing
weight by 40 (ALPOLIC) to 15 (ALPOLIC/fr)
compared with solid aluminum sheet with
equivalent rigidity. ALPOLIC/fr and ALPOLIC
are resistant to reasonable impact loads due to
the unique composite composite construction of
strong aluminum skins bonded to a viscoelastic
core. Cutting, bending, curving, routing,
grooving and other procedures are easily
accomplished with aluminum working or woodworking
machines. ALPOLIC/fr meets fire code
requirements because of its non-combustible
mineral filled core.
