Honeycomb Panels

WHAT ARE HONEYCOMB PANELS?

Honeycomb panel storage cabinets are manufactured using a core hexagonal aluminium cell structure with surface panels bonded to both sides in aluminium, PVC, or heat-resistant board.

Importantly, honeycomb panels are safe and do not contain harmful substances, making them an eco-friendly and lightweight solution for modern storage needs.

They are water-resistant and highly durable, making them ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, or any area prone to moisture, where strength, stability, and easy maintenance are essential.

Key Advantages of Honeycomb Panels

Lightweight Construction

30-50% lighter than solid wood or metal cabinets, making them ideal for suspended or mobile storage solutions.

Superior Load-Bearing Capacity

Biomimetic honeycomb design distributes pressure effectively, providing excellent compression and flexural resistance comparable to solid wood.

Environmental Benefits

Higher material utilisation efficiency, reduced wood/metal consumption, and many core materials (recycled paper, biodegradable plastics) are recyclable.

The honeycomb core structure provides excellent strength-to-weight ratio whilst reducing material consumption.

Additional Honeycomb Panel Advantages

Outstanding Dimensional Stability

Superior resistance to humidity expansion and shrinkage compared to solid wood, making it less prone to warping or cracking in environments with significant temperature and humidity fluctuations (kitchens, bathrooms).

Cost-Effective

Lower price compared to all-solid wood or pure metal cabinets, offering excellent value for money.

Design Flexibility

Surface can be bonded with decorative panels such as baked paint fibre surfaces, offering versatile options to complement different design styles.

Sound and Heat Reduction

The honeycomb core design helps reduce sound and heat transfer through its air-filled structure, contributing to a quieter and more comfortable environment.

Honeycomb panels are lightweight, water-resistant, anti-mold, eco-friendly, highly stable, and versatile, making them durable and adaptable for various applications.

Lightweight

Innovative honeycomb core makes panels strong yet extremely light, reducing strain on cabinets and fittings.

Water Resistance

With suitable surface finishes, honeycomb panels resist moisture and prevent swelling or warping.

Eco-friendly

Innovative honeycomb core makes panels strong yet extremely light, reducing strain on cabinets and fittings.

Anti-mold

Designed to discourage mould growth, ensuring a cleaner and healthier storage environment.

Highly Stable

Retains shape and strength over time, even in varying conditions.

Versatile Applications

Compatible with a wide range of finishes including wood, metal, and fire-resistant boards.
