Commercial buildings and distribution centers have long been designed with a sober and closed facade, with the office area often provided with decorative framing elements. With Hardeman | van Harten's aluminum composite panels, the special aesthetics of these elements can now easily be carried through to the rest of the façade. Thanks to the panels, an extremely flat, sleek and maintenance-free facade is created in no time, with a luxurious appearance and unprecedented design freedom. This is highly appreciated by architects and clients.
"Our aluminum composite panels are made from two ultra-thin aluminum sheets, between which a composite core is glued. The result is a panel only 4 mm thick, which is extremely flat and strong," says Martijn Jansen on behalf of Hardeman | van Harten. "The facade panels can be machined very well and accurately. For example, V-grooves can easily be milled and corners folded, creating great design freedom. Moreover, the panels are very lightweight and can often be executed without visible seams. For assembly, we have permanent assembly teams and our own equipment."
Hardeman | van Harten's aluminum composite panels find eager acceptance in projects. Nice references include the distribution centers of Jumbo in Bleiswijk, vida XL in Venlo, Danone Nutricia in Cuijk, the Bijenkorf in Tilburg, Michael Kors in Venlo and DSV in 's-Heerenberg and Venlo. In addition, Hardeman | van Harten is currently producing façade elements for Nippon's logistics center in Hoofddorp.
