Reducing facade fading from strong UV exposure is one of the most common technical concerns raised by architects, contractors, and façade suppliers evaluating aluminum composite panel (ACP) materials for exterior projects. Prolonged sun exposure, combined with temperature swings, humidity, rainfall, and in some cases coastal or industrial conditions, places continuous stress on the coating layer of an aluminum composite panel. When the coating system is not designed for long-term exterior performance, color fading, gloss loss, and surface degradation can occur over time, affecting both the appearance and the perceived quality of a building façade. Foshan Jiashuncai Building Materials Co., Ltd., operating internationally under the brand JIASHUNCAI, addresses this exact challenge through its PVDF Aluminum Composite Panel product line, supported by more than 20 years of manufacturing experience since the company's establishment in 2003 in Foshan, Guangdong, China.
Aluminium cladding building is the practice of enveloping a structure's exterior with aluminum panels or systems. It's more than decoration; it's a functional rainscreen that manages weather, improves thermal performance, and defines architectural form
Introduction to Aluminum Composite Panel Installation
Aluminum Composite Panels (ACP) are widely used in modern architecture for building facades, curtain walls, signage systems, and interior decoration. Because ACP panels are lightweight, durable, and easy to fabricate, they have become one of the most popular cladding materials in commercial construction projects.
However, improper installation or construction mistakes can lead to problems such as panel deformation, poor sealing, surface contamination, and weak bonding. Understanding these issues is essential for contractors, architects, and construction companies working with ACP panels.
This article explains the most common aluminum composite panel construction problems and how to prevent them.
