Invented back in the 1930s by Professor Dr. Otto Bayer, Polyurethane (PU) or urethane is an elastomeric material available in a wide range of hardness from eraser soft to cricket ball hard. There are different types of polyurethanes, used in a diversity of products from coatings and adhesives to shoe soles and mining components. However, the basic chemistry of each type is essentially the same.

Widespread use of polyurethanes was first seen during World War II, when they were utilised as a replacement for rubber, which at the time was expensive and hard to obtain.

ALUCOBOND® is a composite panel consisting of an aluminum mirror front and white back cover sheets and a mineral-filled polymer core.

This is a great alternative to other materials that require minimum pre finish preparation. Simply applied to almost any flat internal wall in buildings and structures with ease of installation time and cost. This is the case of many gyms and studios, where mirrors are an essential feature but can also mean additional high maintenance costs. Alucobond mirrors offer a great option that gives optimum reflection and ensures safety from impact as well as cost efficiency.
