The applications for Bellcomb lightweight honeycomb sandwich panels are virtually limitless. Design Engineers around the world are working on thousands of projects that need to become lighter while maintaining or increasing strength characteristics. Honeycomb core panels by Bellcomb offer this impressive combination while also being an economically wise choice.
In the transportation industry, honeycomb composite panels will take 2,900 pounds out of a 53’ commercial trailer, increasing fuel efficiency by 1.2%. On cruise ship balcony panels, a honeycomb composite panel will reduce vessel weight by tons, making the vessel safer and more fuel-efficient. In working boats, such as fast ferries, bulkheads made from honeycomb composite panels offer strength and durability in addition to significant weight savings. The owners of super yachts expect high performance levels and honeycomb core panels are used for bulkheads, doors, furniture components, sound abatement, and decking.
Passenger and lightweight rail car doors will use Bellcomb honeycomb panels to reduce the weight of these complex assemblies. Today’s economy has created a significant increase in the ridership of public transportation and these operators are using Bellcomb honeycomb panels wherever they can to reduce weight.
Bellcomb panels are used for modular shelter panels as walls, floors, doors, and ceilings. Bellcomb panels will meet the specifications called for in MERWS (Modular Extendable Rigid Wall Shelters) and non-expandable rigid wall shelters. The panels specified for modular shelters often use aluminum honeycomb cores or Kraft honeycomb cores faced with either aluminum skins or fiberglass reinforced plastic skins.
Bellcomb is also in the entertainment industry. Bellcomb supplies theaters, auditoriums and convention centers with honeycomb core panels for stage decks and raised exhibit platforms, and foam core panels for portable dance floors.
In Bio-Tech and High-Tech, Bellcomb’s strong, lightweight, honeycomb core composite panels are perfect for cleanroom walls and cleanroom ceilings.
In office buildings around the world, Bellcomb honeycomb core panels are used to reduce weight in conventional dry erase whiteboards, corkboards, high-tech interactive whiteboards, as well as office furniture and room partitions.
Retailers come to Bellcomb for store fixtures, display systems and changing room walls and doors.
In the art world, Bellcomb honeycomb panels are in museum gallery displays and in storage systems designed to both protect and preserve priceless art works.
