How to specify an aluminum honeycomb panel
A useful aluminum honeycomb panel specification states the application, supply scope, overall thickness, face and back skin thicknesses, size, finish and quantity. Add drawings wherever preparation or assembly is needed.
2. Define the construction
Give the overall panel thickness and each skin thickness separately. General skins are 0.1–2.0 mm each side. Cabinet configurations focus around 18 mm with 0.6 / 0.8 / 1.0 mm skins; ceiling configurations use their own paired specifications.
3. Confirm dimensions and finish
Provide length, width, quantity by size, visible faces, finish process and appearance. Include grain direction, sheen and sample requirements.
4. Set the supply scope
Say whether you need full sheets, prepared components or project-specific fabricated cabinetry/furniture. Drawings should define edges, holes, cut-outs, hardware and assembly requirements.
5. Plan delivery
Include destination, target timing and packing requirements. Ceiling inquiries should list any accessories separately and identify the intended support system.
