Nucleo is precision-engineered for today’s architectural demands, a high-performance bonded aluminium panel that exemplifies design and function. Notable for its application in sleek façades and striking exterior elements, it provides architects, building designers and installers with a canvas of possibilities.

Nucleo is constructed from two external aluminium sheets bonded to a profiled aluminium core, creating a lightweight, ultra-flat panel that balances strength with a refined finish. Deemed non-combustible under NCC 2022 and achieving zero ignitability and flame spread to AS1530.1 and AS1530.3, Nucleo supports compliant façade design. Encased in a marine-grade alloy and finished with Duranar PVDF paint, it delivers strong UV resistance and long-term colour retention, engineered to withstand Australia’s demanding conditions. Nucleo provides a durable aluminium bonded solution suited to Type C construction.
