CORAPET® AL 70/100/150

Due to its high compressive strength and fatigue strength, CoraPET® is used where particularly high loads are expected and thermal insulation is needed at the same time. The PET foam used consists of recycled material and is therefore particularly environmentally friendly.

In CoraPET® AL we combine highly resilient PET foam with aluminium face sheets. The PET foam is available in densities of 70, 100 and 150 kg/m3. The density to be selected can be derived from the acting loads. For the aluminium face sheets we have a wide range of different widths from 1250mm to 2630mm from coil to choose from. Due to their high load-bearing capacity, CoraPET® AL products are used, for example, for floors in public transport or for the enclosure of containers.

CoraPET® AL offers the following advantages compared to alternative solutions:

• Excellent mechanical properties
  
  PET foam is used extensively for the rotor blades of wind turbines due to its good mechanical properties. The material also achieves a corresponding effect in our sandwich panels. CoraPET® offers particularly high compressive strengths. The high shear modulus results in high bending stiffness. Furthermore, CoraPET® scores with a high permanent load capacity.

• Large and variable formats:
  
  Sizes up to 10'000 x 2'610mm are available in practically any thickness from 8mm. As standard we stock 1.0mm thick aluminium in various widths. For large widths we also have stronger aluminium available.

• Customised inserts
  
  Inserts are brought in according to customer requirements. Aluminium profiles, but also purenite or wood are often used as inserts, either selectively or as an additional layer. Inlays serve as reinforcement, fixing points, etc.. With inserts, a functional product tailored to the customer is created from a panel.

• Resource-saving
  
  PET foam is usually made from recycled material and is therefore particularly environmentally-friendly.

We manufacture formats, cutting, processing, edge trims and inserts according to your specifications. Find out more about our range of products on the pages on inserts, edge trims and cover sheets.
