Is ACM the Right Choice for Your Next Project?

Benefits of Using ACM Panels

The primary benefit of using ACM panels is their durability and strength. The aluminum sheets provide a strong, weather-resistant outer layer of protection, while the core provides rigidity and strength to the panel. Additionally, ACM panels are resistant to corrosion, which makes them ideal for use in both indoor and outdoor applications.

ACM panels are also lightweight and easy to install. They can be cut to fit any size or shape, making them ideal for projects with tight spaces or difficult angles. Additionally, ACM panels can be installed quickly and easily, saving time and money on labor costs.

As noted, ACM panels are available in a variety of designs, finishes, and textures, making them ideal for a variety of construction design projects. With the wide selection of colors and finishes, you can easily find an ACM panel that will complement your project’s design. At Acurio, we can even help create a custom design to fit your project in a range of thicknesses tailored to your needs.

The Versatility of ACM Panels

They can be used as a sustainable exterior cladding material for buildings, or as an interior wall or ceiling application. Additionally, ACM panels are great options for both indoor and outdoor projects. They are corrosion-resistant, making them ideal for projects near salt water or other corrosive and/or extreme environments.

ACM panels can also be used in more creative applications. To create murals, signage, and other decorative elements. ACM panels can also be easily cut to fit any size or shape, making them ideal for projects with tight spaces or difficult angles.

Types of ACM Panels

There are a few different types of ACM panels available, each with its own unique properties and applications. The most common type of ACM panel is a single-skin panel, which consists of two thin sheets of aluminum bonded to a non-aluminum core. Single-skin panels are often used as an exterior cladding material for buildings, as they provide a durable, weather-resistant layer of protection.

Another type of ACM panel is a double-skin panel, which consists of two sheets of aluminum bonded to two non-aluminum cores. Double-skin panels are often used in interior wall and ceiling applications—among other home improvement projects—as they provide additional rigidity and strength.

Cost of ACM Panels

The cost of ACM panels can vary depending on the type, size, and number of panels you’re purchasing. Generally, you can expect to pay between $5 and $15 per square foot for ACM panels, but the cost can vary depending on the type of panel, thickness, and manufacturer.
