Is this composite material or ACM?
No, we provide single-skin plate aluminum. It does not have a core and does not come on a backer, making it more sustainable than an ACM panel.
Can I customize a finish? How long does it take?
Yes! Custom samples require 3-5 weeks to produce. The number of revisions required will add to the overall lead time. See our process online.
Can your finishes and panel systems be used on exterior and interior applications?
Yes, our material is rated for both interior and exterior use with performance and sustainability in mind.
What gauge/thickness does your material come in?
Both flat sheets and panels range in gauge/thickness from 0.6mm (0.024”) to 3.0mm (0.12”) aluminum. Material gauge/thickness required will vary depending on the panel type.
