HyComb Panels --- Advanced Non‑Combustible Aluminium Honeycomb Panels for Façades & Wall Linings
HyComb Panels are an engineered, non‑combustible aluminium honeycomb system designed to redefine façade cladding, wall lining, and architectural applications. Combining exceptional strength, ultra‑lightweight construction, and full compliance with Australian and international standards, HyComb Panels deliver superior performance across residential, commercial, and large‑scale developments.

Panel Composition & System Features
• Panel components comprise a hexagonal aluminium honeycomb core layer sandwiched between top and bottom aluminium face sheets. • Optional surface finishes include mill finish aluminium, PVDF‑coated aluminium, natural stone or stainless steel. • The aluminium honeycomb backing element incorporates embedded rivet‑nut inserts for mechanical fixing. • System is designed as a non‑combustible cladding solution compatible with HyComb G‑Rail interlocking installation method. |

Key Advantages of HyComb Panels
|
• Non‑combustible, fully compliant with AS 1530 and NCC 2022
• Up to 80% lighter than solid dimensional stone • Faster installation, reducing construction time and labour costs • Larger panel sizes for fewer joints and cleaner architectural lines • Large‑format stone options, with even larger sizes available in PVDF‑coated aluminium • Engineered fixing system for highly efficient installation and major labour savings • Safer, easier handling, improving OH&S outcomes and reducing on‑site risks • Structurally stronger than traditional dimensional stone while retaining a natural stone appearance • Compatible with premium veneer materials including PVDF aluminium, stainless steel, and water‑rippled stainless steel • Lower environmental impact through reduced stone usage; all metallic components are recyclable • More cost‑effective, enabling more ambitious and visually refined design solutions • Superior visual consistency compared to traditional stone façades • Highly versatile for exterior façades, interior fit‑outs, and furniture applications |

Other Accredited Tests & In‑House Laboratory
Further to the testing completed to meet AS 1530 and NCC 2022 compliance requirements, HyComb has also undertaken a comprehensive suite of additional tests on both AHSP (Aluminium Honeycomb Stone Panels) and AHP (Aluminium Honeycomb Panels) through third‑party accredited laboratories.
Testing includes:
• Wind Load & Water Infiltration Testing
• Structural Properties and Surface Burning
• Impact and Cyclic Wind Load Testing
• Flexural Strength — ASTM C880 (AHSP)
• Salt Spray — ASTM B117‑11 (AHSP & ASP)
• Accelerated Aging Resistance — ASTM C297 (AHSP)
• Freeze–Thaw Resistance — ASTM C67‑11 (AHSP)
• Flatwise Compressive Testing (AHSP)
• Flatwise Tensile Strength Testing (AHSP)
• Shear Strength Testing (AHSP)
• High–Low Temperature Cycling (AHSP & ASP)
• Clip Pull‑Out Testing (AHSP)
• Node Strength Testing (AHSP)
• Accelerated Ageing Tests (AHSP & ASP)
• Acid, Alkaline, and Salt‑Spray Corrosion Tests (AHSP & ASP)
In addition, our factory operates a dedicated in‑house laboratory to ensure consistent panel performance. Random samples are taken from the production line to verify ongoing performance stability, with all results logged in a dedicated database to maintain full traceability for every production batch.
