At the very beginning, aluminum honeycomb materials were mostly used in the aerospace and military sector. Aluminum honeycomb panel has excellent strength and great performance in high wind pressure resistance, shock absorption, sound insulation, heat preservation, fire resistance, and high strength. Aluminum honeycomb grid core can also be used as an energy absorber and grids in front of spotlights and photographic equipment.
DMC aluminum honeycomb cores are made of 3003 or 5052 aluminum alloy foil.
