Aluminium Facade Panels are the modern building envelope solution that combines design freedom with long-term durability. As a lightweight, non-combustible cladding material, aluminium allows architects to create precise, flat, and seamless exterior surfaces that resist weather, pollution, and UV exposure for decades. Whether the project calls for a monolithic solid panel, a perforated screen, or a custom pattern, our facade panels are engineered to deliver consistent appearance and reliable performance across the entire building elevation.

Each panel is fabricated from 6063-T5 aluminium sheet and extrusions, then finished in-house with your choice of coating. PVDF coating to AAMA 2605 provides the highest level of colour and gloss retention for exposed facades. Powder coating to AAMA 2604 offers a wider RAL colour range at a competitive cost. Anodizing to Qualanod standards delivers a premium metallic finish that will not fade or chalk. All finishes are applied on our own lines, ensuring batch-to-batch colour consistency that is critical when panels are installed side by side.
Shengxin has over 30 years of aluminium extrusion expertise and manufactures facade panels entirely in-house, from sheet fabrication to final coating. This vertical integration means we control the flatness, edge detail, and finish quality of every panel. For perforated or decorative options, see our perforated aluminium curtain wall panels. For structural framing, explore our curtain wall profile system.
Features & Benefits
-
Design flexibility: Available in solid, perforated, louvered, and custom patterns. Panels can be flat, curved, or folded to suit complex facade geometries.
-
Lightweight and non-combustible: Aluminium panels weigh significantly less than stone or steel cladding, reducing structural loads, while achieving Class A1/A2 fire classification per EN 13501-1.
-
Durable architectural finishes: PVDF (AAMA 2605), powder coating (AAMA 2604), and anodizing (Qualanod) are all applied in-house, with documented colour and gloss retention for 20+ years.
-
Weather and pollution resistance: The coated aluminium surface resists rain, salt spray, industrial pollutants, and UV radiation without corrosion, chalking, or fading.
-
Precision fabrication: CNC cutting, folding, and punching ensure consistent panel dimensions and clean edges, allowing fast installation with concealed fixing systems.
-
Sustainable and recyclable: Aluminium is 100% recyclable at end of life, contributing to LEED and BREEAM credits and supporting circular construction practices.

Applications of Aluminium Facade Panels
-
Commercial building facades: Office towers, hotels, and retail centres use aluminium panels for clean, modern elevations that resist weathering and maintain their appearance.
-
Rainscreen cladding systems: The panels form the outer skin of ventilated rainscreen assemblies, protecting the building envelope while allowing drainage and airflow behind.
-
Residential apartment buildings: Lightweight panels reduce structural loads on multi-storey residential projects, with colour options to suit any architectural style.
-
Transport and infrastructure: Airports, railway stations, and car parks specify aluminium facade panels for their durability, low maintenance, and non-combustible properties.
-
Refurbishment and over-cladding: Existing buildings can be transformed with new aluminium facades that improve thermal performance, weather resistance, and aesthetics.

Aluminium Facade Panel FAQ
Q: What is the difference between aluminium facade panels and standard aluminum wall panels?
A: Facade panels are specifically engineered for exterior building envelopes, with thicker gauges, interlocking edges, and architectural finishes tested to AAMA 2605 or 2604. Standard aluminum wall panels may be thinner and intended for interior or less demanding applications. Our facade panels are designed for rainscreen and curtain wall systems, with concealed fixing and weather-resistant edges.
Q: Can you produce a large-format aluminum great wall panel for a feature facade?
A: Yes. We manufacture large-format panels up to 1500 mm × 4000 mm, and can create repeating patterns or bold geometric designs that produce an aluminum great wall panel effect for statement facades, cultural buildings, or entrance features. Send us your design intent, and our team will develop a production-ready solution.
Q: What fixing system do you recommend for facade panels?
A: We recommend concealed clip systems for most rainscreen applications, as they provide a clean, fastener-free appearance and allow for thermal movement. For refurbishment or where access is required, visible rivets or brackets can be used. Our engineers can advise on the best fixing method for your substructure.
Q: Are the panels suitable for coastal environments?
A: Yes. With PVDF coating to AAMA 2605, our facade panels provide excellent resistance to salt spray and UV exposure. For coastal projects within 500 metres of the sea, we recommend PVDF or a minimum 20-micron anodized finish.
Q: Can you supply panels in custom colours to match the architect's specification?
A: Absolutely. We offer the full RAL colour range and can match custom colours from Pantone references or physical samples. Our colour lab provides A4 approval swatches before production.

⚠️ Important Note: All panel images and dimensional drawings on this page are for reference only. Final dimensions, finishes, and fixing details will be confirmed based on your approved production drawings and sample panels. Please contact our engineering team to discuss your specific requirements before placing an order.
Please note: The production timelines discussed are typical estimates based on smooth design approvals and current scheduling. Actual lead times may be longer if design changes are required, multiple sample iterations are needed, or production capacity is temporarily at high demand. Your dedicated project engineer will provide updated timelines at each stage, and final delivery dates will be confirmed in your order confirmation.
