What Is Aluminum Honeycomb Core and Where Is It Used in Ships?

Aluminum honeycomb core consists of thin aluminum foil bonded into a hexagonal cellular structure. It provides extremely high stiffness at very low weight.

Marine applications include:

  • A60 fire-rated wall panels
  • Marine ceilings
  • Partition systems
  • Offshore accommodation modules
  • Ship interior furniture

Aluminum honeycomb is highly valued for:

  • Fire resistance
  • Lightweight performance
  • Dimensional stability
  • Flatness

However, edge sealing and corrosion protection are critical in marine environments.
