Aluminium Architectural Cladding FAQ
1. What are main types of aluminium cladding?
The primary types are solid aluminum plate panels (2.0 to 3.0 mm), aluminum composite panels (ACM/ACP), extruded aluminum interlocking planks, and cellular aluminum honeycomb panels. Solid plates offer extreme impact resistance, composite panels deliver mirror flatness, and honeycomb panels provide maximum rigidity for large modules.
2. What are the pros of aluminium cladding?
Pros include exceptional strength-to-weight ratios, 100% non-combustibility (Class A1/A2), superior corrosion resistance with 20-year PVDF coatings, and complete recyclability. Its lightweight nature reduces structural foundation loads, while CNC factory fabrication enables complex 3D curved shapes, sharp crisp corners, and rapid jobsite panel installation.
3. Is aluminium architectural cladding certified fire-safe?
Yes, architectural aluminium cladding is non-combustible and certified fire-safe under EN 13501-1 Class A1/A2 and ASTM E84 Class A standards. Solid aluminum sheets and mineral-core composite panels do not contribute fuel to fires, preventing vertical flame propagation when installed within code-compliant rainscreen assemblies.
4. How long does aluminium architectural cladding last?
Engineered aluminium architectural cladding coated with 70% Kynar 500 PVDF fluoropolymer paint provides a verified exterior service life exceeding 40 to 50 years. The naturally forming passive oxide layer combined with high-performance factory coatings withstands marine salt air, ultraviolet degradation, and urban industrial atmospheric pollution.
5. What is an architectural rainscreen cladding system?
An architectural rainscreen cladding system is a two-stage exterior wall assembly comprising an outer ventilated aluminum panel screen, an equalized air cavity, and an inner weather barrier. Rainwater is baffled and drained naturally by gravity, while airflow ventilates moisture, protecting structural walls from wind-driven moisture penetration.
