| Technical purpose of product or process | ALUCOBOND® PLUS is a composite panel consisting two aluminium cover sheets with a flame-retardant mineral-filled polymer core which stands for sustainable building quality and the highest design standards. It was specially developed for more stringent fire safety requirements in architecture. Thanks to the flame-retardant mineral core, ALUCOBOND® PLUS achieves better fire ratings than aluminium composite panels with a black PE core. The façade material is characterised by its precise flatness, surface and colour variety as well as excellent formability. ALUCOBOND® PLUS is easy to process, break-proof, impact-resistant and weather-resistant. Aluminium is an excellent lightweight construction material which requires a high degree of primary energy during initial production. For ALUCOBOND® circular high-quality recycled aluminium is used, that is reducing the CO2 emissions significantly compared to conventional processes. The cover sheets contain a high recycled content with a certified low carbon footprint below 3kg CO2 eq./kg Al,, sourced from post-industrial aluminium waste. A mass balance approach is used for the calculation of CO2 footprint. ALUCOBOND® circular is suitable for very long usage periods in the industry, transport and construction areas. The ALUCOBOND® core material mainly consists of mineral components which use a small amount of primary energy and can still be 100 % recycled and returned to the reusable material cycle. The flameproofing of the core material is exclusively realised using mineral additives. | ||
