Aluminum veneer refers to a new type of building decoration material formed by using aluminum alloy sheet as the substrate, undergoing chrome treatment, and then CNC bending and other technologies, and using fluorocarbon or powder coating technology. Perforated aluminum panels, imitation stone aluminum panels, wood grain transfer aluminum panels, mirror aluminum panels, and so on, which are commonly referred to, belong to this category of aluminum panels.

Aluminum composite board is a general term, mainly referring to the use of various complex processing methods to composite chemically treated coated aluminum sheets (aluminum veneers) as surface materials on suitable base materials, ultimately forming aluminum composite boards. According to the different composite base materials, aluminum composite panels have different material characteristics. Common examples include aluminum-plastic panels, honeycomb aluminum panels, etc.

Let's take a closer look at common types.
