FABYCOMB® |
|
It is to be emphasized that the fabrication of laminated honeycomb panels is done simultaneously to the lamination to thin stone slabs in the stratification and reinforcement process. Generally in the construction and furnishing industry, and particularly in marine applications like on luxury yachting, the target is to lighten and to strengthen, or to give some other valuable mechanical or physical characteristics to decorative stones, used as floor and wall coverings. Old solutions currently proposed on the market frequently lead to limited resistance and durability. FABYCOMB®, patented, aims to overcome such limits proposing a reinforced stratified panel in which all components: stone, fiberglass fabric, aluminum honeycomb core and structural resin, are laminated each other in a single industrial process. FABYCOMB® paneling patented, is a lightweight product made by an assembly of stone, micro porous fiberglass skins and a micro-perforated aluminum honeycomb core. The strategy of the company researching and developing continually new cladding products resulted in the creation of our FABYCOMB® paneling system which we believe brings to the construction market a technologically high quality and architecturally pleasing product, with excellent physical/mechanical performance on external façade claddings.. The main features of FABYCOMB® can be summarized as follows: • Ultra light weight with high tensile and flexural strength, making the panel unsurpassable in its mechanical performance; • The technical specification of FABYCOMB® panel allows to use it directly onto steel frame structures without the need of external insulation systems, thus providing an extremely competitive solution for this type of elements; • The FABYCOMB® paneling system can be utilized also on timber frame structural systems to provide a fast and economic building solution; • Suitable to be used as a rain screen system on both existing and new structural elements. • Increased resistance to shear and flexural stresses; • Excellent dimensional stability; • Excellent resistance to compression; • Light weight (18 kg/m2 in thickness of 15mm honeycomb + 5 mm stone); • Resistance to atmospheric agents; • Stable to temperature range -40°C to +90°C |

The covering "skins" are made by a double fabric of bidirectional fiber glass, total weight in a range of 300-500 gr/m2, which the thin stone material is applied on, normal thickness of stone down to about 3-4 mm. |
