Architects have to consider many factors when choosing building exterior materials, such as aesthetics, robustness and durability. There are many kinds of exterior wall decoration materials, but which one is the king of cost?

1.  aluminum composite panel VS aluminum sheet

Aluminum composite panel --- The middle core layer is made of PE material, and the upper and lower layers are made of two layers of aluminum composite. Various patterns, strong plasticity, easy processing, not easy to deform, and can be fireproof, and the cost is lower than aluminum veneer.

Aluminum sheets - have been used for exterior wall decoration, but aluminum composite panels have gradually decreased. The reason is that the aluminum veneer has poor pressure resistance, is easy to be deformed and peeled off, and has high cost.

Result: The aluminum composite panel wins.

2. aluminum composite panel VS tile

Tiles are traditional wall decoration materials, but with the increasing number of patterns and patterns of aluminum-plastic composite materials, the decorative effect for exterior walls has far exceeded that of ceramic tiles. Secondly, there are holes in the tiles that are invisible to the naked eye. After one year of use, the color changes greatly and cannot be cleaned. Again, the impact resistance of the tiles is poor, and the aluminum-plastic panels are very malleable and can be cut into various shapes.

Result: The aluminum composite panel wins.

3.  aluminum-plastic composite panel VS coating

Fire retardant coatings are a good choice, but most exterior paints have strong odors and volatile toxic gases. Exterior wall coatings have poor moisture resistance. After a few years, the outer wall began to show large pieces of flaking and discoloration, resulting in wall mottle. The DERACP surface is innovatively made of FEVE fluorocarbon, which is UV and weather resistant. It meets the high level of light and weather resistance requirements compared to conventional exterior aluminum composite panels.

Result: Aluminium composite panel wins
