Based on ideas from local designers, giving the best advice and programmes. Aluminum Composite Panel as Afica local mainly building materials now and in the future. Here are some experiences of outdoor aluminum composite panel projects in hospitals and some public places.
Premium Coating
Whether in wet, dry, or sunny and rainy areas, we recommend Fluorocarbon(PVDF) coatings for outdoor use. It is not prone to fading and at the same time, it allows us to give our exterior siding a more subtle color. Especially in environments where the sunlight is exposed for a long period of time, the ordinary coating of aluminum composite panels is extremely prone to color loss.
Suitable Thickness
It is routinely recommended that exterior wall panels be used in thicknesses of 4mm or more.Too thin will not only be too much damage in the installation process, resulting in a lot of necessary losses, and the exterior wall is required to withstand some harsh weather, too thin acp hardness is not enough. We also recommend a thickness of 0.21 or more for aluminum to provide adequate thickness. Especially in coastal areas such as the Philippines, to withstand natural disasters such as hurricanes brought about by the typhoon season.
Overall Brand Look
The appearance design of aluminum composite panels should be coordinated with the surrounding environment and conform to the overall style, while the use of aluminum composite panels with bright colors and clear patterns can be considered to enhance the visual effect. This can be contrasted with traditional tiles or glass to appear more advanced.
