Plastic honeycomb panels: a sustainable choice for the shipbuilding industry

February 14, 2024

Plastic honeycomb panels are lightweight and high-strength materials that are widely used in the shipbuilding industry because of their unique structure and excellent performance. The main characteristics of plastic honeycomb panels are lightweight, high stiffness, good energy absorption and corrosion resistance. Since ships need to operate in complex marine environments for long periods, they have high requirements for the stability and durability of materials, and plastic honeycomb panels are an ideal choice to meet these requirements.

First of all, the light weight of plastic honeycomb panels can reduce the burden of the hull on the total weight of the ship, improve the ship's operating efficiency, and reduce fuel consumption. Secondly, the high rigidity of plastic honeycomb panels can provide good structural support and increase the stability and strength of the ship; at the same time, its good energy absorption can also reduce damage to the ship from collisions and impacts.

In addition, plastic honeycomb panels have excellent corrosion resistance and can resist the erosion of the ship hull by seawater and corrosive atmospheres, extending the service life of the ship. Therefore, plastic honeycomb panels are widely used in the manufacture of ship hulls, decks, cabins, piping, hull interior decoration, and ship equipment, making important contributions to the development of the shipbuilding industry.

Qingdao Achieving Honeycomb Panel Co., Ltd. has been committed to producing plastic honeycomb core materials for nearly 20 years. We have supplied many manufacturers with plastic non-woven honeycomb cores (pp honeycomb core with non-woven surface) that match their requirements and assisted in clients' project development: testing and modification. And can be composite with many kinds of surfaces to meet different requirements. The customized options can include the size, shape, aperture, thickness, etc. The most commonly used standard thicknesses are 20mm 25mm and 15mm. Achieving has a complete quality control system to implement customers' weight and tolerance standards strictly and has reached the production capacity of large-scale supply.
