LITHOCELL® Ceramic CE3

CE3 is a sandwich panel with a cosmetic finish consisting of a thin ceramic slab (3 mm). It has an aluminium honeycomb core and skins made of glass fibre fabric. It is obtained by gluing a ceramic finish slab to a panel without finish such as the RAWCELL® Fiber panel. Main fields of application: construction, furniture, shipbuilding, lifts.

PROPERTIES
  • Very high resistance to bending, shear and tensile stress.
  • Excellent resistance to peeling.
  • Excellent dimensional stability, also in terms of flatness over time.
  • Very good compressive strength (due to aluminium honeycomb).
  • Maximum mechanical performance, compared to the high lightness of the panel.
  • Excellent weather resistance.
  • Wide operating temperature range.
FIELDS OF APPLICATION
Typical applications for the LITHOCELL® Ceramic - CE3 panel include building façades, interior design and lift systems.
STORAGE
The LITHOCELL® Ceramic - CE3 panel is a product in the “semi-finished products” category and therefore is subject to further processing; we recommend storing the panels horizontally in a closed and dry environment, possibly away from heat sources and to support them along their edges.
