Composition of ALCOTEX/FR

Alcotex consists of two aluminum sheets sandwiching a solid core of extruded thermoplastic material processed in a continuous process with no glues or adhesives between dissimilar materials.

A protective film is applied to the material in production that should be removed after the fabrication and panels have been installed.

Top : 0.5mmm/0.020” aluminum skin coated with a PVdF roll-coated finish containing a minimum of 70% Kynar 500®/Hylar 5000® resins

Core : Mineral based fire rated (FR) core

Bottom : 0.5mm/ 0.020” aluminum skin coated with either a Mill finish or Polyester finish

2 COAT (SOLID & MICA COLORS)          3 COAT (METALLIC COLORS)

Alcotex finishes are applied in a reverse roller application process and are available in either a 2 or 3 coat finish. The 2 coat finish omits the clear coat required on a 3 coat finish. Both finishes will provide the same excellent performance required for architectural applications.

Solid & Mica / Pearlescent Colors

These 2 coat finishes will typically consist of a 0.2mm primer coat and a 0.8mm color coat for a nominal dry film thickness of 1mm

Metallic & Premium Colors

These 3 coat finishes will typically consist of a 0.2mm primer coat, a 0.8mm color coat, and a 0.5mm clear coat for a nominal dry film thickness of 1.5mm

Custom Colors

Custom Colors are available in either 2 or 3 coat finishes upon request. Please contact us to see how we can help you customize your project.

Fabrication Methods

Alcotex is a versatile product that may be easily fabricated in many different ways including:

• Cutting • Grooving • Bending / Folding • Curving • Drilling • Shearing • Punching • Riveting • Hot Air Welding

Sound Transmission Loss

With a triple sandwiched composite structure, Alcotex has an excellent physical impact absorbability and sound transmission loss especially when compared to other products. Alcotex ACM is great for effective vibration and sound dampening control.

Deflection By Wind Load

As well as being both lightweight and rigid, Alcotex is an extremely flat aluminum composite material. Alcotex has a high strength to weight ratio when compared to other exterior veneer products such as aluminum plate, stainless steel or porcelain
