Aluminum Composite Panel (ACP) is a new decorative material made by bonding aluminum sheets with a polyethylene plastic core through hot pressing. It is widely used for building exterior walls, curtain walls, interior decoration, and signboards.
The installation method depends mainly on the application scenario<\/strong> (exterior wall \/ interior wall \/ ceiling \/ signboard) and the fixing technique<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Common Installation Methods<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1.1 Dry-Hanging Method (Keel Installation)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Applications:<\/strong> Exterior walls, curtain walls, large fa\u00e7ade installations
Advantages:<\/strong> Ventilated, moisture-resistant, easy maintenance, good flatness, durable<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Installation Process:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Base Preparation:<\/strong>
    Clean the wall surface \u2192 mark reference and control lines \u2192 determine keel positions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Install Frame System:<\/strong>
    Use galvanized steel or aluminum alloy keels, fixed to the main structure with brackets.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Panel Installation:<\/strong>\n
      \n
    • Cut, groove, and bend panels to required size.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Attach hanging clips or corner brackets around the panel edges.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Fix panels to the keels using bolts, rivets, or hanging clips.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Sealant Application:<\/strong>
      Apply weatherproof silicone sealant to panel joints.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Inspection & Cleaning:<\/strong>
      Adjust flatness and clean the surface.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
      \n\n\n\n

      1.2 Adhesive Method (Wet Installation)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      Applications:<\/strong> Interior wall decoration, ceilings, column wrapping
      Advantages:<\/strong> Low cost, simple process
      Disadvantages:<\/strong> Not weather-resistant, unsuitable for outdoor use<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Installation Process:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      1. Ensure the wall surface is flat, dry, and dust-free.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      2. Mark grid lines according to design.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      3. Apply adhesive (e.g., structural adhesive, contact glue) in dots or stripes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      4. Press panels evenly and tap gently with a rubber hammer for firm bonding.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      5. Treat panel joints with decorative strips or sealant.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
        \n\n\n\n

        1.3 Screw Fixing Method (Mechanical Fastening)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

        Applications:<\/strong> Signboards, display boards, interior decoration, ceilings
        Advantages:<\/strong> Easy installation, low cost
        Disadvantages:<\/strong> Slightly lower flatness, visible screw heads may affect appearance<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Installation Process:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n
        1. Install wooden or light steel framework.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        2. Cut and drill panels to required dimensions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        3. Fix panels with self-tapping screws or rivets.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        4. Cover screw heads with decorative caps or sealant.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
          \n\n\n\n

          1.4 Combined Method (Dry-Hanging + Adhesive)<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

          Applications:<\/strong> Special shapes or areas requiring extra strength
          Method:<\/strong>
          Use mechanical fastening (dry-hanging) for key load-bearing points, and structural adhesive elsewhere for stability and sealing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

          \n\n\n\n

          2. Key Points and Precautions<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
            \n
          1. Panel Processing:<\/strong>
            Use specialized cutting and grooving tools; bending radius \u2265 1.5 \u00d7 panel thickness.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          2. Structural Adhesive:<\/strong>
            Use weather-resistant silicone adhesive for exterior projects; joint width 8\u201310 mm.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          3. Thermal Expansion:<\/strong>
            Leave expansion gaps (\u2265 5 mm) between panels to prevent deformation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          4. Fire Safety:<\/strong>
            Use fire-retardant ACP panels (Class B1 or A2) for exterior installations.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          5. Cleaning and Maintenance:<\/strong>
            Clean with neutral detergent; avoid strong acid or alkali solutions.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
            \n\n\n\n
