The only company in China which introduced the full range of modern plastic honeycomb panel production line from Germany

       There are two major categories of PVC and PET products in TOPU, which is another new product following the aluminum honeycomb and paper honeycomb in the industry. TOPU is the only company in China who introduced the full range of modern plastic honeycomb panel production line from Germany. Using a full set of German manufacturing process, TOPU has produced high quality plastic honeycomb series products, making it the exclusive domestic company that produces and supplies this type of products.

       According to the specific needs of the user, TOPU can make TOPU honeycomb panels with different specifications. According to the different uses of the panel, the cavity material can choose: PC (polycarbonate), PP (polypropylene). Cavity diameter: 3.5mm-14mm, bulk density: 55-400Kg/m3. As a frequently used panel, PP8.0-80 honeycomb panel’ bulk density is only 80Kg/m3, showing the characteristic of lightweight and high strength. PP8.0-80 honeycomb panel is widely used in the manufacture of train box, auto body, aircraft shell, ship, FRP sandwich, partitions and floor.

       TOPU honeycomb panel can also be used as deflector plate for gas or liquid, making the disordered gas or liquid into laminar flow. Advanced production process applied in TOPU has made the plastic tube wall very smooth, high parallelism between the plastic tubes, and therefore making it the best material for wind deflector in air-conditioners and food display cabinets.

       TOPU holds the production of honeycomb material and promotion of its usage as its responsibility. Widely used in the material can save a lot of forest resources, protect and improve the ecological environment, and this material can be recycled, which is a kind of environmentally friendly new material in line with the development of 21st century.

TOPU committing to R & D and production of high-tech materials

With plastic honeycomb material as its leading product, TOPU has vigorously developed the applications of this product in different areas. Plastic honeycomb core material has twenty-five years of history in foreign countries.

High strength: High specific strength for unit mass, high specific stiffness and light weight: accounting for about 1/12 of the quality of the same volume of water, 1/32 of the aluminum, which can greatly reduce the load of the building, the weight of car, boat, and light rail vehicles), which is also easy to install and cost less. Free cutting. The low price is only about 1/3 of the price of the similar imported products. The material is impact resistance, non-absorbent, at the same time can maintain stable characteristics in a wide temperature range, which would not be deformed even in the water.

Thermal insulation and sound insulation: The air layer between two plates is divided into a number of closed gap by honeycomb, and polypropylene (PP) is not a good conductor of heat, so that severely limit the propagation of sound and heat, so the plastic honeycomb board has a good sound and thermal insulation properties.

Environmentally friendly, non-toxic and harmless: Made of polypropylene (PP), which can be used to make containers or packaging of food, it is non-toxic and harmless, does not emit any harmful gases, and is recyclable.

Corrosion resistance: Good chemical stability is one of the advantages of polypropylene (PP).

Insulation: It has good electrical insulating properties and a smaller dielectric ratio.

Fire prevention: Composed with appropriate panels, it can prevent fire.

Because of these advantages, it has gradually entered the Chinese market in recent years.

Firstly, the application in the construction industry

A: All kinds of stone composite sheet (Thick). It is widely used in the outer walls of the tall buildings, which is not only beautiful, but at the same time enhance the security of the building due to the lightweight, and it is sound insulation and heat insulation.

B: Plastic honeycomb panel floor. Its construction is simple, and it is very effective insulation materials, which is commonly used in South Korea, Japan and other countries.

C: Build light trailer coach with plastic honeycomb panels, which has easy operation, fast speed, and good thermal insulation and sound insulation.

D: Because of the easy process ability of plastic honeycomb, it can be processed into different shapes, which can be used as ceiling or roof and clapboard with different shapes, with the features of reliability, safety, beautiful outlook, and easy to install.

Secondly, the application in the transport industry

In the transportation industry, the significant decrease in self-weight of the means of transport can save fuel, increase the carrying, improve economic efficiency, as well as reduce pollution. The characteristics of soundproof and shock absorption damping of plastic honeycomb can significantly reduce the noise and vibration generated by the engine. Using plastic honeycomb panels on the bus or the floor and cab of formal imported car can greatly reduce its weight and increase strength; same performances can be achieved when using it for trains, ships and aircraft. What’s more, plastic honeycomb has the best cost than any other material.

Thirdly, the application in water-related industries

Due to the physical and chemical characteristics of the plastic honeycomb material, it is non-absorbent, corrosion resistance, and has wide application in the following areas.

A: Shipbuilding industry: hull, deck, boat top, door, hatch cover, the interior of the ship, which use a lot of plastic honeycomb material.
B: Maritime industry equipment also extensively uses plastic honeycomb material, such as dock.
C: Due to its insulation, the construction of an indoor swimming pool adopts plastic honeycomb board to keep the water temperature. Used as floor where you step into the pool, people do not feel cool.
D: Plastic honeycomb panels can also be used for the fence of the fishing grounds, which is not only durable, but also strong enough to withstand wind and waves.
E: Sewage treatment.

Fourthly, the applications in other industries

A: Body protection products. Plastic honeycomb panels have the characteristics of deformation after thermoplastic as well as buffer and shock absorption under impact. Under certain conditions, honeycomb panel can be processed again into special-shaped panel with foam, plastic cloth and other materials, thus it is widely used in sports protection products and the field of leisure activities as body protection products, such as motorcycle sports protective clothing, helmets, elbow pads, knee pads and so on, to create a new level of human protection. The lateral surface of honeycomb panels has the characteristic of energy absorption, which can absorb the tremendous energy generated by the moment of impact, to ease the trauma to the object.

B: Air filtration and purification. Plastic honeycomb can be used as carrier of photocatalyst, and activated carbon. Its function of good air permeability and air rectifier has played a very important role.

C: Radar antenna. Plastic honeycomb core material has excellent performance on electromagnetic waves penetrating, which can be applied on radar antenna cover, fully taking advantage of its light weight and high strength, and its other performances can also meet the requirements.

D: Radar antenna. Plastic honeycomb core material has excellent performance on electromagnetic waves penetrating, which can be applied on radar antenna cover, fully taking advantage of its light weight and high strength, and its other performances can also meet the requirements.

E: Containers for the storage of chemicals or food

F: Temporary trade booths

G: Plumbing

H: Containers for the storage of chemicals or food, etc.
