MARINE - SUPPORTING MARINE & SHIPBUILDING INDUSTRY
At ASD, we are proud to support our UK shipbuilding & marine industry, including naval and commercial crafts, for both new build and refit projects.
Alucore®
Alucore® is an aluminium sandwich-type panel and plays an important role in the shipbuilding industry due to fire protection standards and the necessary weight reduction.
Thanks to its very light weight combined with its economic work-ability, the composite panel is used particularly in the interior of the ship for the ceilings, walls or furniture and in the outer area for balcony partitioning. In all the applications, the material offers optimum strength values at the same time.

- By applying our ‘Total Metals Management’ principles which are embedded in our business
Companies that operate in high technological sectors demand a first-class service and quality standard as well as purchasing metals on a project by project basis. The projects require careful management as they can often be complex and demanding, requiring a selection of different alloys combined with a number of value-added processes, all of which must be managed to a strict deadline.
