The COMPOCEL® AL FR sandwich panel is a certified panel with skins and core made entirely of aluminium
This is the certified version of the COMPOCEL AL panel that complies with the most stringent regulations for the railway, shipbuilding and construction industries.
Technical features
The COMPOCEL AL FR panel is normally purchased by all those customers who need lightness and excellent reaction to fire performance. The new terminal of Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris, the new Athens airport and the tower of the Turkish central bank for example, were built with our COMPOCEL AL FR panels.

Dimensions
Painting
The COMPOCEL® AL FR Sandwich Panel has been certified with different types of powder or liquid paint to suit various stylistic, aesthetic and environmental requirements.
Maintenance
The panel's user manual indicates the conditions under which the material must be stored and preserved optimally. Among the most important factors affecting panel storage are: storage temperature, handling, exposure to light and weather.
Particular attention must be paid to the presence of protective films that may be difficult to remove when subjected to atmospheric agents or after prolonged storage.
The panel is easy to clean and degrease, but the use of acidic substances or abrasive components is not recommended as they could compromise its aesthetic qualities.
Recycling
The COMPOCEL AL® panel is 95% recyclable as it consists of 95% aluminium, which can be melted down and reused several times.
