Now, what is the first thing people notice when they take a first glance at a building or home? For most of us out there it is the building facade and overall shape of the structure. Whether you are a homeowner or a service provider, the building should represent you or your brand. That can be said for some of the greatest buildings out there, but one can’t help but wonder about the outcome if the architects had more options while building them.
Sure, all of us happen to have our individual preferences when it comes down to the aspect of materials to work with and the unfortunate fact is that a lot of the materials are not that easy to be creative with. Wood, steel and concrete also face the issue of the paint fading away as time goes by. Now thanks to modern materials, there are a lot more options to be creative, be it the case of an aluminium composite panel or any other such materials.
Are you looking to add an elegant and modern touch to your home space? Then aluminium composite panels will suit you just fine since they can create shapes that weren’t so easy to create in the past. Apart from that, let us take a good look at the wide range of benefits they offer and the top four reasons you should be using them:-
- Dual functionality and durability: The overall look that you will get from these panels will be both aesthetically pleasing as well as highly functional. You can be sure of that fact. Plus it is very durable and can be folded, bent, drilled, cut as well as perforated with losing any structural integrity in any way. Not only does it last a good 30 years, but it can be used where other materials can’t.
- The aspect of lightness: A lot of people don’t realise that it is characterised as a lightweight material. Compared to a material like stainless steel, it is 66% lighter making it a perfect alternative in every possible way. Not only will it be easier to use, but one can use more of it as compared to other similar building material which will be a lot heavier.
- A low cost of maintenance: As compared to solid steel, wood and concrete, the cost of maintenance when it comes to aluminium is close to zero. Cleaning them once a year is more than enough and in heavily industrialised areas, one should ensure that they are cleaned twice a year. Plus, the cleaning process is extremely easy and straightforward.
- High functionality: Many top-notch companies provide functional characteristics such as sound, thermal and wind insulation as well as fire resistance and earthquake safety. All of this collectively lowers the energy cost to a considerable degree. Being easy to clean and resistant to corrosion, they are also very recyclable as well.
Finally, a lot of people even claim that such panels are the future and that the sheer range of options that they offer is second to none. All of that is correct, but one should take a great deal of care figuring out which kind of panel works for their individual space and setup.
Always remember that all of us have varying needs all across the board and that however good aluminium panels might be as an option, they may not fit your needs in particular. So do make sure that you keep that fact in mind before making the final decision.
