What is ACP Cladding
The Aluminium Composite Panel is commonly described as ACP. This is composed of Aluminium Composite Material (ACM) comprising two thin coated aluminium sheets. Consisting of two different components, metal and non-metal, as aluminium is metal and polyethylene plastic is non-metal, it performs better in terms and disadvantages of the new material.
The short name of the Aluminium Composite sheet is ACP. This is also described as a sandwich panel. The aluminium composite panel has been created by 3A Composite Corporation in 1964 as a collaborative invention with BASF.
The aluminium composite panel is indeed a construction substance wherein thermoplastic polythene base as well as the fire-retardant base layer are placed between two made of aluminium sheets. Polythene is not a fire-resistant substance; it sparks and spreads the fire.
Therefore, before buying the ACP panel, we must check also that the core material is fire-resistant. The Polythene Core Panel is being used in the Type C building project and now you’ll be wondering about what type C is.
