ACP
(Aluminum Composite)

🔨 Installation Methods

1. Fixing System

Panels are directly fastened to the substructure (steel box or profile) using screws or rivets.

Edges are usually bent for better strength and aesthetics.

✅ Suitable for small and low-cost projects

✅ Fast installation

❌ Limited aesthetics and water resistance

---

2. Hanging System

Panels are bent into box shapes and hung on special hooks or profiles.

Panels can be easily replaced.

✅ Modern design implementation

✅ Easy panel replacement

✅ More uniform joints

❌ Higher cost than fixing

---

3. Rail System

Panels are box-shaped and placed on aluminum or steel rails.

Hidden connection ensures a clean and uniform appearance.

✅ High strength and beauty

✅ Suitable for large and modern projects

❌ Requires precision and skilled installation

❌ Relatively higher cost

4. H-L System

Uses L-shaped and H-shaped profiles for installation.

Steps:

1. Install metal substructure (steel box or galvanized profile).

2. Place L profiles on edges and corners.

3. Insert H profiles between panels to connect and align them.

4. Panels are fixed inside the H and L frames without excessive screws/rivets.

Advantages:

Fast installation

Uniform and neat joints

Lower cost than rail and hanging

Easier panel replacement

Good resistance against wind and impact

Disadvantages:

Less aesthetic than rail or hanging (profiles may be visible)

Limited ability for curves/complex designs

Requires careful waterproofing

---

5. Combined System

Sometimes fixing is used for certain areas and rail/hanging for others.

Suitable for special projects with complex designs.
