Aluminum veneer is made of pure aluminum or high-grade aluminum alloy plates, and is mainly used for the design and decoration of various building facade curtain walls and suspended ceilings. Aluminum-plastic plate, or ACP plate, is made of two thinner aluminum plates and a middle layer of plastic polymer through a composite process. It is widely used in building curtain walls and indoor and outdoor decoration. So, which is better, aluminum-plastic plate or aluminum veneer, and what are the specific ones? Today, the editor of Mingtan Building Materials Aluminum Veneer Manufacturer will analyze it for you, hoping to help you.
1. Raw material difference
As we all know, aluminum veneer is made of pure aluminum or high-strength aluminum alloy plates. Aluminum-plastic plate is usually made of two thinner aluminum plates and plastic polymer sandwich layers through advanced composite technology, and the middle sandwich plastic layer is generally polyethylene or carbon.
2. Weight difference
Aluminum veneer is heavy and not suitable for large-scale use, which will increase the weight of decorative materials. Aluminum-plastic plate is relatively light, with a single-layer area weight of only about 3.5kg, suitable for large-area use and easy installation.
3. Difference in firmness and durability
Compared with aluminum veneer, aluminum-plastic panel has low compressive strength, poor elasticity and is not strong enough. Aluminum veneer is of better quality, more durable, has excellent antioxidant ability, and is more suitable for large-scale use.
4. Price difference
Aluminum-plastic panel has low processing cost and relatively cheap price, and can be used in large quantities. However, aluminum veneer has relatively high price due to its fine processing technology and high material requirements.
It can be seen that it is not difficult to see that aluminum veneer and aluminum-plastic panel actually have their own advantages. Aluminum-plastic panel is cheap and suitable for curtain wall projects with a small budget, but it is not strong enough. Aluminum veneer is of better quality, more sturdy and durable, and the price is relatively high. When choosing building curtain wall decoration materials, everyone should consider the actual needs and cost budget of their own projects, and choose suitable aluminum curtain wall materials based on actual conditions.
