Wall Cladding ACM
Overview
Typical Project Environments
ACM cladding is used across:
Commercial office buildings
Retail centres and shopfronts
Industrial facilities
Schools and public buildings
Transport terminals
Refurbishment and façade upgrades
Both new-build and retrofit façade projects may incorporate ACM panels.
Functional Objectives
ACM wall cladding systems are designed to:
Provide a clean architectural finish
Protect structural elements from weather exposure
Reduce overall façade weight
Allow modular panel replacement
Conceal services or substrate irregularities
Improve visual uniformity across large surfaces
Panel performance must align with structural, aesthetic, and compliance requirements.

Panel Configurations
ACM cladding panels may be supplied as:
Flat cut panels
Routed and folded cassette panels
Column wraps
Feature wall panels
Signage backing panels
Perforated decorative panels
Cassette-style panels are commonly used in façade systems to allow concealed fixing and modular installation.
Material Options
ACM panels are available in various core types depending on compliance requirements:
Standard Core ACM
General façade and internal applications
Lightweight and rigid
Fire-Retardant (FR) Core ACM
Designed to meet stricter building code requirements
Suitable for many commercial applications
Non-Combustible Core Panels
Used where compliance requires higher fire performance
Core selection must align with current building regulations and project specification.
Fabrication & Processing
ACM cladding panels are processed using:
CNC routing for precise profiling
V-grooving for folding and cassette formation
Cutting to architectural dimensions
Drilling and slotting for fixing systems
Edge finishing
Plastic fabrication capabilities may be integrated where ACM panels interface with HDPE, polycarbonate, or acrylic components.
Laser cutting may be used for decorative perforations depending on thickness and finish.
Alternative Options:
All components used in this application are manufactured in-house using controlled, drawing-led production processes. We do not supply generic or off-the-shelf products. Each part is produced to specification to meet defined mechanical, environmental, and installation requirements.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, panels are CNC cut to architectural drawings and specified dimensions.
Yes, V-grooving and folding processes are used to create cassette-style panels.
Core selection depends on fire compliance requirements and project documentation.
Yes, provided appropriate finishes and fixing systems are selected.
Panel availability depends on manufacturer range and project specification.
Fixing systems and joint spacing must allow for movement across panel length.
