In the field of architectural façades, traditional solid aluminum panels face inherent limitations due to their single-material composition. As the demand grows for high-performance, lightweight, and eco-friendly façade materials, SKYPANEL 3D, a next-generation composite solution, is rapidly emerging as the industry’s preferred choice.

Surface Flatness

Solid aluminum panels often struggle with flatness after high-temperature coating. Because internal stress cannot be effectively released, the surface may become uneven or develop waves. In contrast, SKYPANEL 3D utilizes a three-dimensional composite structure that disperses and releases stress efficiently, delivering superior flatness and a more refined façade appearance.

Fire Performance

Both materials can achieve high fire-resistance ratings. However, SKYPANEL 3D, made entirely from aluminum, reaches the A2 fire-resistance standard. It does not produce flames or release toxic smoke in a fire, offering a higher level of safety for applications in hospitals, transportation hubs, and other critical environments.

Weight and Processing

At equal thickness, SKYPANEL 3D is only half the weight of solid aluminum panels, significantly reducing the load on façade systems. Additionally, its composite structure makes it easier to cut, bend, and shape, giving architects and contractors far greater design flexibility compared to conventional solid aluminum.

Conclusion

From surface flatness and lightweight performance to ease of processing and fire safety, SKYPANEL 3D has clearly surpassed traditional solid aluminum panels. More than just an upgrade in façade materials, it represents the ideal choice for future high-rise buildings and landmark projects.
