3LUX presents a host of distinctive advantages


Durability Up To 10 Years Warranty On Coating
3LUX is resistant against weather (extreme change of temperature) and pollution. making it extremely durable and stable. It is also shock resistant due to its vibration absorbent feature Being coated with PVDF/PE paints on the front surface and anti-corrosive pre-treatment/coated with anti.corrosive paints at the back surface has added value to its durability.


Easy Installation & Maintenance
3LUX's features in flexibility stand out in easy installation, be it exterior or interior space of any buildings, In addition, 3LUX is easy to maintain.


Cost Effective
3LUX is cost-effective as well as fast track construction solution for new buildings and refurbished proper. ties, 3LUX come in high solar reflective-colours, This characteristic provided high energy efficiency to the structural properties.


Flexibility & Versatility
3LUX is light but strong and unbreakable, making it particularly tlenble because it is easy to fold. curve. cut and shape to the architects' creativity. 3LUX has an evenly tlat and smooth surface as well as excellent torm- ability, making designing of properly an easier task.


Green Feature
Not only recycled material is used in the production of SLUX but 3LlJX is itself recyclable without leaving any harm to the environment. Our mission: Building better Future_ Be trendy and environmental friendly.


Fire Retardant
3LUX is classified as index 885476 Part 6 for tire propagation and class -one- 85476 Part 7 test for surface spread of flame. Its tire-retardant feature provide extra safety to your properties.

Bending

ACP will be bending using bending table and he die edges are rounded and smooth, so there is no damage to the panel surface when bending.

Roll Bending

For 4mrn panel, the minimum bending radius without routing is 60mm. Roll Bending is similar to bending of aluminium sheet. The bending can be done using 3-roller panel bender of dies for specify radius.

Routing and Folding

It can be routed using conventional routing machines. The routing process is going through the aluminium layer and partial of the PE core. It is recommended to left a uniform core material of 0.3-1.0 mm on the lower cladding sheet to ensure smooth bending

Punching

ACP can be punched by using conventional sheet metal punching machines or manual notchers.

Screwing

The screws should be tightened with a torque wrench or screwdriver so that the sealing washer is placed on the panel for sealing the bore hole without exerting pressure to the panel, The hole diameter In the panel must be larger than the screw diameter.

Riveting

ACP can be drilled using standard drill for aluminium. Rivets are commonly used to joint the panel to the structure. It is recommended that either aluminium or stainless steel riverts are used.

Cutting

It can be cut into all kind of desired Shape easily by using saw or plate saw.

Contour Cutting

For contour cutting on CNC machining centres a one-edge cutter,

Installing Direction

The installation of all panels in one single direction as printed on protective film This is to eliminate the possibility of having color shade reflection different among panels on single building surface.

Protective Film

3LUX aluminium composite panel is covered with an opaque UV protective film . The film is advisable to be remove as soon as after installation especially under the hot and humid weather conditions.

Once protective film is removed , marker pen , vinyl fim or tape are not allow to be used on lacquered coated surface of panels.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Cleaning is not just in order to make the building keep clean and beautiful appearance , regularly remove dirt on the surface of the coating to ensure long-term quality surface.

Do not clean sun-heated surfaces (above 40 'C ) to avoid rapid drying which may lead to stain formation coating.
