Industry 02

Rail Transit &
High-Speed Rail

Modern rail vehicles face strict regulations on weight, fire safety, and structural integrity. Mex-core honeycomb panels are used in train interior walls, floor systems, and ceiling panels -- delivering significant weight savings that directly improve energy efficiency and passenger capacity.

Application Scenarios

Train Interior Wall Panels

Fire-rated, noise-absorbing panels

Carriage Floor Systems

High-load-bearing, slip-resistant

Ceiling & Luggage Racks

Ultra-lightweight composite structures

Driver Cab Structures

Impact-resistant sandwich composites

Industry 03

Architecture &
Curtain Wall

Aluminum honeycomb panels have become the material of choice for modern architectural facades, offering a combination of extreme flatness, low weight, and superior rigidity. Mex-core cores are used in curtain wall systems, feature ceilings, elevator interiors, and partition walls across commercial and civic buildings worldwide.

Curtain Wall & Facade Panels

Aluminum honeycomb core bonded with metal or composite skins for large-format facade systems. Excellent flatness retention over decades.

Interior Partition & Ceiling

Lightweight panels for suspended ceilings and movable partition walls that reduce structural load while improving acoustic performance.

Elevator & Transport Interiors

Decorative yet structural panels for elevator cab walls and doors, offering fire resistance and surface finishing flexibility.
