Alucore clad material breakdown

ALUCORE® Clad is a Value-Added Cladding System Solution from ALUCOBOND®. It is made of honeycomb panels prefabricated with aluminium extrusions – meaning they are ready to install.

ALUCORE® Clad is comprised of the following:

  • Pre-coated Aluminium front skin
  • Adhesive
  • Aluminium Honeycomb core
  • Pre-coated Aluminium back skin and fixing extrusion

Features of ALUCORE Clad

  • Unique, as it combines a custom solution with the best available industrial coating and lamination technology
  • ‘Ready to install’ panels which come with different cladding material configurations (finishes/coating/thickness) to suit individual project requirements
  • Panel perimeter fixing anchors both panel skins to the supporting structure, thereby giving a better strength to the overall installation
  • Pre-fixed extrusions ensure an easy and quick installation, whether horizontal or vertical orientation
  • The fixing system used in ALUCORE® Clad allows for quick panel replacement/removal in different structures, rather than having to take out all the panels

ALUCORE® Clad has all the great features of ALUCORE® – combined with a high quality ‘ready to install’ system for a perfectly designed building.

ALUCORE® clad solutions comes with 3 different fixing systems to choose from, based on the application and design requirement of a given project. All these solutions can be adapted for a Vertical or Horizontal orientation of panels.

Silicon joint system

  • Exterior and Interior wall cladding/ roofing
  • Between 12mm-25mm
  • Vertical and horizontal installation
Silicon joint system

Metal cover joint system

  • Exterior and Interior Wall Cladding/ Roofing
  • Between 12mm-25mm
  • Vertical and horizontal installation
Metal cover joint system

Interior Ceiling System

  • Interior ceilings
  • 12mm
  • Vertical and horizontal installation
Interior Ceiling System

This fixing system is suitable for both interior and exterior wall cladding applications. As the name suggests, the joints are covered with silicon sealants.

This system is suitable for both exterior and interior wall cladding. The best part about this system is that one can choose the metal strips to either match the surface finish of the Alucore clad or have any other colour of their choice.

This system is ideally suited for interior ceiling applications.
