Part of OZER, HEXAPAN develops lightweight structures with thermoplastic honeycomb technology.

Our honeycomb cores and composite sandwich panels combine low weight with mechanical performance. Core, skin and thickness options adapt the structure to applications from transportation to construction.

  • Lightweight structure
  • High strength
  • Versatile processing

Thermoplastic Panel Solutions

Thermoplastic honeycomb core forms the centre of the structure. Combined with skins or composite layers on both sides, it creates a lightweight sandwich panel with mechanical performance tailored to the application. The panel can be used with these skins alone, or enhanced with optional surface finishes such as fabric or decorative film.

Advantages of HEXAPAN

Explore the strengths of the material.

Lightness

Two surface skins and a honeycomb core form a sandwich structure. The low density of the thermoplastic material supports lightweight panel solutions.

Recycling

A PP core and compatible composite skins form a recyclable structure. Suitable collection and recycling processes enable material recovery at the end of service life.

Impact resistance

The catalogue reports impact resistance above 80 J at room temperature and approximately 35 J at −20 °C, using a 20 mm diameter impactor.

Chemical resistance

The PP honeycomb core and composite skins offer resistance to chemical exposure. Suitability depends on the chemical and exposure conditions.

Compressive strength

The catalogue reports pressure resistance up to 1.6 MPa under short-term loading over a 75 × 75 mm area.

Processing and joining

Panels can be machined and thermoformed. Suitable joining methods include riveting, welding and bonding.

Environmental resistance

Resistance to UV, moisture, petroleum and oil exposure is considered alongside the application and selected product configuration.

Thermal insulation

The catalogue states thermal conductivity below 0.12 W/(m·K) at room temperature, supporting the use of panels in thermal insulation applications.

Bending performance

The catalogue example reports no visible bending under an 8 kg central load for a panel 30 mm thick and 100 mm wide, with a 600 mm support span.

Technical values refer to the catalogue examples and test conditions; performance may vary with product configuration and operating conditions.

Applications

New possibilities wherever
lightweight design adds value.

Sustainability and Technology

01

Recyclable product structure

A PP core and recycling-compatible skins support material recovery at the end of the product’s service life.

02

Contributing to a lower carbon footprint

With suitable collection and recycling processes, recovering materials can reduce demand for virgin raw materials and help lower the associated carbon footprint.

03

Patented production technology

HEXAPAN honeycomb panels are manufactured using patented production technology. The honeycomb core combines lightweight construction with mechanical performance.
