Aluminum Composite Material (ACM)
Alcotex® Aluminum Composite Material panels (ACM) allow for greater options on any major construction project. With a fire-rated low-density core, these specially engineered flat, lightweight, rigid yet formable panels have a high bond strength and an exemplary CAN/ULC fire safety rating. Ideal for complex projects with many design elements, ACM, with its high-tech look and flexibility, allows for multiple curves and other various applications. ACM can be used to clad spandrel areas, enclose industrial buildings, clad columns and beams, and cover parapets and/or sheer walls, copings, canopy fascias and soffits. Truly an affordable option, ACM is excellent for office towers, smaller multi-storey facilities and commercial use buildings.

Aluminum composite material panels consist of two aluminum sheets laminated to a non-metallic core, usually low-density polyethylene. This renders them light and strong—perfect for structural and decorative uses.
Yes. ACM panels are highly weather-resistant and therefore ideal for external cladding, columns, and canopies. Reputable aluminum composite material manufacturers design them to withstand sun, rain, and wind.
A fire-rated core that complies with national safety standards, such as CAN/ULC, is found in many panels. Trusted suppliers of aluminum composite material usually give certification to ensure compliance.
Very flexible. Aluminum composite material panels are easy to curve or bend to fit modern architectural designs, which is why the panels are popular in creative and customized designs.
Yes. ACM is a high-end finish at a lower price compared to stone, glass, or steel. This is the reason most aluminum composite material suppliers suggest their use in large and small-scale projects.
They can be applied in office towers, industrial buildings, and commercial facades; in other words, everywhere a clean, modern appearance with durability and fire safety is advantageous.
