ALUMINIUM COMPOSITE
Aluminium composite (ACM)
Colour-coated aluminum composite materials offer excellent surface flatness and enable big product sizes. Material consists of 2 aluminum facings bonded into inner core. Outer aluminum facing is PVDF or HQPE painted with primer and colour coat. Aluminium composite materials are used in producing Ruukki Primo product family and they are available in three alternative core materials.
Aluminum composite material with light-weight honeycomb core
This innovative material consist of 0.7mm Aluminium facings bonded into inner honeycomb core made of Aluminium. Thanks to its low weight and high rigidity, this 14mm thick material is ideal for extra-large façade products. The material is used in producing Primo Skyline 1000 products, which are available in sizes up to 6200mm x 1900mm. The material has reaction to fire class A2-s1, d0, which makes it practically non-combustible and hence suitable for practically all building types. Due to honeycomb structure, the material cannot be perforated for outdoor use.
Aluminum composite material with solid A2 core
Material consist of 0.5mm Aluminium facings bonded into inner solid core made of mixture of minerals (90%) and polymers (10%). This 4mm thick material provides excellent surface flatness and is ideal for large façade products. The material is used in producing Primo Skyline 100 & 150 products, which are available in sizes up to 4000mm x 1000mm. The material has reaction to fire class A2-s1, d0, which makes it practically non-combustible and hence suitable for practically all building types. Due to high mineral content in core, the material cannot be perforated for outdoor use and it’s not recommended for outdoor use in coastal areas (< 1500m from sea).
Aluminum composite material with solid FR core
Material consist of 0.5mm Aluminium facings bonded into inner solid core made of mixture of minerals (70%) and polymers (30%). This 4mm thick material provides excellent surface flatness and is ideal for large façade products. The material is used in producing Primo Skyline 100 & 150 products, which are available in sizes up to 4000mm x 1000mm. The material has reaction to fire class B-s1, d0, which makes it material of limited combustibility and suitable for most of the building types. Due to lower mineral content in the core, the material can be perforated also for outdoor use.

UV resistance describes how well the coating is able to keep its original colour and gloss levels in accordance with EN10169. The higher the class, the better the resistance.
Corrosivity categories describe the outdoor climate conditions in accordance with EN12944. The higher the category, the more corrosive environment.
