An alternative to PE core Aluminum Composite Material (ACM) panels are ones where coil-coated aluminum sheets are bonded with a thermoplastic mineral-filled core. This Fire Retardant (FR) core material complies with a more diverse range of diverse codes around the world. Manufacturers now provide ACM panels reinforced with fire retardant materials. These offer the same flatness, flexibility, aesthetics, quality, and formability one would expect to get from a PE ACM panel. NORTEM® offers Fire-Retardant ALPOLIC®/FR mineral-filled core ACM panels that can be used numerous applications demanding the features of effecting cladding.
