Ship fitting sandwich panel Metawell®

aluminum

Metawell® is a patented aluminium lightweight panel, which is thanks to its sandwich structure very light and has a high bending resistance. Metawell® sandwich panels are perfectly well suited for elements with an appealing large-format surface and also as substrate for sophisticated surfaces. Especially when Metawell® lightweight aluminium panels are used in large dimensions, high weight reductions can be achieved. Compared with solid aluminium of the same statical performance, Metawell® aluminium sandwich panels offer weight savings of up to 75 %. Metawell® is made by bonding two cover sheets to the core material, which consists of wave formed metal sheet, using a hot melt adhesive in a continuous process. Metawell® sandwich panels are available in different designs, which can be adapted perfectly to the purposes of specific applications. By adjusting the cover sheets, corrugation height and surface coating the characteristics of the aluminium sandwich panels can be adapted specifically to the particular requirements. The specific design of Metawell® ensures a high static and dynamic stress resistance. Selected alloys and anti-corrosion lacquer even on the inner surfaces of the sandwich provide high chemical and physical resistance.
