ALPOLIC™ has many features, such as:

• Flatness: Superior flatness with high rigidity compared with solid aluminum panels.
• Coating Quality: Uniform color and smooth coating from a continuous coil coating and a unique coating method called “Die coating.”
• Lightweight: Lighter than solid metals of equivalent rigidity.
  Fire Performance: ALPOLIC™/fr is a fire-retardant material that meets fire-safety codes of building materials in most countries.
• Workability: Easy to process by ordinary machines and tools for fabrication.

The available dimensions depend on the products, but ALPOLIC™/fr is available with the following dimensions:

• Total thickness: 3mm, 4mm, or 6mm
• Standard panel width: 965mm, 1,270mm and 1,575mm
• Maximum panel length: 7,200mm

Refer to the “Stock Items” page in Purchase Guide for the details of ALPOLIC™/fr.
For other items, please contact us, or local distributors.

ALPOLIC™ is highly rigid, especially compared with solid aluminum sheets. 4mm ALPOLIC™ is equivalent to 3.3mm thick solid aluminum sheet. As for details, refer to “Tech info: Rigidity” page.

Lumiflon paint system is the fluorocarbon based paint system; not only is equivalent to PVDF or Kynar based paint standards, but has superior characteristics in some aspects. The color range of this paint is wide, and the gloss is also adjustable in a range between 15% and 80%. We use Lumiflon-based fluorocarbon paint system as our standard.

Custom colors are available with the minimum quantity of 1,000m2.

Matte finishes(G5%) are available in fluorocarbon coatings.

Custom marble and timber designs are also available with the minimum quantity of 2,000m2.

The deflection temperature of ALPOLIC™ is 109-116°C (228-241°F). Therefore, non-burdened ALPOLIC™ resists boiling water for short time. However, in a practical heating work, we recommend the following guideline:

• If the heating duration is shorter than 30 min, keep 90°C (194°F) at maximum.
• If the heating duration is longer than 30 min, keep 70°C (158°F) at maximum.

ALPOLIC™ is a recyclable material. Both aluminum and the core material can be reutilized.
