Downey Metal Products...Architectural Panel 20 System

Panel 20® is a composite panel for exterior use made by laminating an aluminum skin to a substrate of thermoset phenolic resin. A second aluminum skin is added as a backer and provides thermal stability and panel balance.

Panels are furnished with a strippable film on the painted surfaces to protect the finish during shipment and installation. Panel 20® is attached to the substrate using construction adhesive in the field of the panel and mechanical fasteners around the perimeter. The system is completed using two piece (plastic receiver and extruded aluminum cover) trim moldings available in both batten and reveal (1/2”) profiles.

BASIC USES & APPLICATIONS:
As an alternative/complement to other building materials such as brick or stucco, Panel 20® is designed for general use as an exterior cladding on walls, canopies, fascias and accent bands.
Panel 20® is typically used on low and medium rise buildings such as schools, banks, office parks, medical facilities, retail identity programs, etc... However, with a durable thermoset phenolic core and a smooth finish, Panel 20® is also ideal for other applications where a high end system look is desired.

FEATURES & BENEFITS:

•System Look w/o Fabrication
Panel 20® offers a high-end appearance without the additional costs associated with fabrication
by using trim moldings (with flat batten or reveal profiles) and concealed fasteners.

graceful, clean curves.

•Easy Installation

be matched or painted a complementary color for emphasis.

•Low Maintenance Most foreign matter can be cleaned from surface with mild detergents;
can be incorporated into yearly building washing schedule.

• Economical With material and installation savings, Panel 20® provides a high-end appearance and an economical solution when compared to fabricated systems.
