How Does ACP Contribute To A More Sustainable Future?

Humans use 25% more natural resources than the planet can support. The high waste and pollution generated by infrastructure development are hurting the environment's biodiversity. ACP cladding is the solution that most urban cities are looking forward to. Because ACP sheets are 100% recyclable, the panels have little impact on rising global temperatures.


ACP panels are made from recycled materials such as aluminum, polymers, and adhesives. This reduces the amount of material that ends up in landfills and promotes the importance of the three R's for environmental conservation: reduce, reuse, and recycle.


1. Here is how the ACP sheet contributes to long-term development.

1.1 Reduced Energy Consumption

The proportion of aluminum used in the panels is much lower than in solid sheets. It reduces production and energy consumption. Another way it saves energy is by keeping a building's interior temperature stable. The façade, both interior and exterior, has a gap from the wall to the bottom layer of the panel. The ACP cladding has openings on both the top and bottom. The gap allows air to flow from top to bottom, creating natural ventilation inside the building. The gap benefits the building's thermal and acoustic insulation. It aids in the reduction of noise pollution and energy bills, resulting in a more sustainable environment within a building.


1.2 Lowers heat reflection

ACP panels are an excellent replacement for glass panels in a sustainable facade. Glass panels add aesthetic value and are known for their ease of maintenance. Glass, on the other hand, reflects heat into the environment, contributing to global warming. According to the report, the earth is getting a degree hotter every year. To address this, an ACP panel is an excellent substitute; it has a similar finish to glass panels, but the ACP sheet reflects a few fractions of heat into the environment.


1.3 Installation Ease

The ACP panels are simple to mount on any wall or structure. You don't have to break the wall to create a support structure; instead, an aluminum frame is a popular way to install the panels. The panels are attached to the walls, and an ACP sheet is installed over them at home or in the office using rivets and nuts. If you are redesigning your home or office for the first time and do not want to break any existing structures, ACP is the best way to achieve the necessary safety and beauty.


1.4 Designing a Green Façade

Green walls, also known as green façades, are a well-researched concept that is used in cities such as Singapore to create a bio-diverse environment. The ACP panels are waterproof, which aids in the retention of the green creepers while preventing damage to the building's structure. Furthermore, the panels aid in the growth of bio-diverse plants on building walls by providing structural support to seedlings.


1.5 Fire-Resistant

ACP panels are fire-resistant and reduce the production of toxic gases and compounds in the event of a fire. The panels are made up of adhesive and honeycomb panels that slow down fire penetration for at least three hours. During a fire, the smoke produced by these panels is non-toxic water vapor. It contributes to safe evacuation and low casualties.


2. What are the major advantages of using aluminum composite panels?

Aluminum composite panels are popular in everything from IT hubs to hospitals. The use of the ACP sheet is undeniable today. The material was developed by Alusingen and BASF in 1969, and it was introduced to India in the early 2000s by architects and designers from Dubai.


The ACP sheet was crucial in bringing aesthetics to modern infrastructure and building smart cities. The advantages and characteristics of using it as exterior façades, interior cladding, and signage in residential, commercial, and industrial complexes If you want to learn more about its benefits and characteristics, keep reading as we go over each point in greater detail.


2.1 Aesthetic Features

A flat sandwich panel made of thin aluminum sheets sandwiched with composite material is known as an aluminum composite panel, also known as an ACP sheet. Its excellence in design and patterns is one of the reasons it has a monopoly in the market.


Julong provides over 300 designs, hues, and colors, allowing designers and architects to be creative and imaginative when creating dream homes. Furthermore, you can select patterns and colors of your choice and request customization to highlight the uniqueness of your designs. If you are dissatisfied with the pre-made designs and colors, you can always request customization. At Julong, we offer complete customization, which means you can choose everything from the colors to the thickness and size of the panels.


2.2 Low-Cost Aluminum

Aluminum composite panels have significantly reduced the cost of facades. The panels are inexpensive, lowering the overall cost of beautifying a building. The panels do not require professional maintenance and are easier to install, lowering the overall expenditure and cost of ACP sheet installation.


2.3 Forests that are environmentally friendly and sustainable

We are sabotaging our relationship with the environment by cutting down forests and using materials that contribute to the earth's rising temperature. Because ACP panels are made of aluminum, they are 100% recyclable, and the composite panels can be reused several times without losing their quality. The aluminum is scrapped and reused in the production of new panels or other aluminum alloy materials, whereas composite materials, such as PE, are useful in the production of new panels.


Green façades and sustainable architecture are promoted by the panels. The mirror ACP panel does not reflect heat into the environment, which aids in lowering the earth's rising temperature. Furthermore, the panel soundproofs the apartment, keeping you away from outside noise pollution.


2.4 Panels that do not require maintenance

The powder coating on ACP cladding prevents dust and pollution from settling on the panels. The panels are water-resistant, which protects them from microbial attack and fungi infestation. It is also stain-resistant and simple to clean. A microfiber cloth and a mild solvent can be used to clean the ACP panels. If properly installed, it can last for more than 20 years with little maintenance.


2.5 Simple Installation

The demand for real estate is increasing as time goes on. To meet the demands of this fast-paced industry, materials must be simple to install and time-consuming. For installation, ACP panels come with nuts and rivets that can be routed in a rectangular format.
