7a958edf-65e8-5e7f-b73f-c077c37e9e8d Aluminum Cladding Panel Material Metal Aluminium Aluminum panels are widely used as façade cladding in curtain wall systems. They are fixed onto a metal framework (such as aluminum or steel subframes) to form a non-load-bearing protective envelope with strong design flexibility and modern aesthetics. Featuring a low density of about 2.7 g/cm³, aluminum offers a high strength-to-weight ratio, with tensile strength up to 570 MPa after alloying and heat treatment. It also provides excellent thermal conductivity (200–240 W/m·K) and electrical conductivity (59–61% IACS), ensuring good performance in both structural and energy-efficient façade designs. Common panel thicknesses range from 1.0–3.0 mm, and lengths from 1000–6000 mm, balancing stiffness and ease of installation. 0 2026 2031 2026-01-30 Aluminum panels are widely used as façade cladding in curtain wall systems.
