About 3A Composites
MORE ABOUT 3A COMPOSITES

ALUCOBOND® is the world market leader for aluminium composite panels. Since their introduction on the market in 1969, these panels have been used above all in architecture and for corporate identity programmes, particularly for façades, wall and roof cladding. The panels are one the one hand outstanding due to their extreme evenness and rigidity, on the other hand the offer excellent formability with simple fabrication techniques. They are available in a large variety of colours, surfaces and formats as well as in various core variations such as a fire-retardant and a non-combustible version. With their comprehensive know-how, 3A Composites supports architects, designers and investors in designing and realizing building envelopes. The brand ALUCOBOND® is produced at the 3A Composites factories in Singen, Germany, Benton in USA, Shanghai in the People‘s Republic of China and in Pune, India.
The effect of space is created by colour and light. As an essential component of architecture, a colour scheme creates individual space and plays an essential supporting role in the utilisation of the building.
ALUCOBOND® solid colours
From delicate white to strong red: plain colours generate a unified appearance without any special effects.
ALUCOBOND® metallic colours
Changing light conditions and perspectives endow these timelessly elegant colours with a glowing, lively appearance.
ALUCOBOND® naturAL
Aluminium’s natural and original beauty is shown to its best effect and every object takes on a distinguished yet lively appearance. The surface structures bring about an interplay between metallic shine and the reflection and absorption of light.
ALUCOBOND® anodized look
Matt finish, velvet-like metal has a charm all of its own. Made in accordance with the EURAS industrial standard, the surfaces harmonise optimally with anodised window frames, profiles and doors. In contrast to anodised materials, ALUCOBOND® anodized look panels can be trimmed and bent without any problem.
ALUCOBOND® legno
The natural beauty of wood united with the strength of ALUCOBOND®: outstanding formability, excellent flatness and bending stiffness as well as excellent long-term durability and weather resistance.
ALUCOBOND® design
Customised décors and design ideas can be achieved with ALUCOBOND®. Design your own building facade. Customised décors are available even in small lot sizes.
ALUCOBOND® terra
Stone and crystal stand for endurance, authenticity and intrinsic value. They reflect light in a magical, vibrant way and their texture is unexpectedly varied: ranging from rough to smooth.ALUCOBOND® terra is inspired by iridescent stone. The décor’s surface refracts the daylight creating a matt sheen and lustrous hues, sometimes elegant and sometimes earthy.
ALUCOBOND® urban
Muted, extremely mat surfaces provide open space for design – be it detached or in combination with glossy surfaces and glass – the mat colours of ALUCOBOND® urban support the urban character of the building.
ALUCOBOND® vintage
ALUCOBOND® vintage – expressive and timeless. Natural patina on a material gives it a truly distinctive charm, and individual weathering features create a nostalgic touch. The imperfection and irregularity of the “random” appearance are the very aspects which open up a wide range of new aesthetics when combined with modern architecture.
