Architectural 5. 0 Finishing Systems Suspended Light Gauge Ceiling System Raised Floor Systems (Access Floors) Light-Gauge Steel 5. 4 Metal Cladding 5. 4 METAL CLADDING ALPOLIC & ALPOLIC®/fr Interior and Exterior Features Interior ALPOLIC® Lightweight and Interior ALPOLIC® is a light and strong sheet material. With the light specific Rigid 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. Flatness Continuous laminating process to laminate aluminum skins and core material provides the excellent flatness of the panel free of distortion and deflection. Workability Cutting, bending, curving and other procedures are easily accomplished with aluminum working or wood working machines. ® Impact Resistance 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. Sound Transmission Compared with other materials of the same weight (steel, aluminum, plywood, ® etc. ) Interior ALPOLIC has a larger sound transmission loss. Corrosion Resistance, The coatings are applied with a continuous coil coating line, and consistent Humidity Resistance and coating quality and hence, high performance can be expected in corrosion Weather-ability resistance and weather-ability in ALPOLIC ® PC Series and ALPOLIC ® PC Stone Series, which can be applied for moist rooms. Thermal Insulation Interior ALPOLIC ® has a good thermal insulation effect due to the core material of high molecular resin.

Architectural 5. 0 Finishing Systems Suspended Light Gauge Ceiling System Raised Floor Systems (Access Floors) Light-Gauge Steel 5. 4 Metal Cladding Exterior ALPOLIC®/fr Features Superior Flatness The continuous laminating process that combines 0. 5 mm thick aluminum skins with the core material results in excellent flatness of the panel. Excellent Color The unique technology of the coil coating process provides the best Uniformity quality of color uniformity, and no visible surface grain lines. Rigidity 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. Impact ALPOLIC®/fr and ALPOLIC® are resistant to reasonable impact Resistance loads due to the unique composite construction of strong aluminum skins bonded to a viscoelastic core. Workability Cutting, bending, curving, routing, grooving and other procedures are easily accomplished with aluminum working or woodworking machines. Fire Resistance ALPOLIC®/fr meets fire code requirements because of its noncombustible mineral filled core.
