LIGHT WEIGHT
Nature provides the geometry, we provide the honeycomb composite material. Nida-Core is extruded from tough, versatile polypropylene plastic. (Other materials are available). Thermo fused to the honeycomb cells are non-woven polyester bonding scrims with a polypropylene barrier film to limit resin consumption. When encapsulated in a laminate it is recognized by the US Coast Guard as a primary flotation material in small boats.
ROT PROOF
PVC and SAN Foams are attacked by styrene and absorb water when exposed, plywood and balsa rot or lose strength when wet. Nida-Core does NOT rot and is unaffected by most solvents and chemical agents. Additionally, when encapsulated in a laminate using a non-aqueous resin the scrim forms a industrial seal limiting water migration through the structure, even if skin is punctured.
EXCELLENT BOND
The cell walls are fused into the non-woven polyester scrim. That coupled with the scrim's affinity for virtually any resin or professional adhesive system provides exceptional bond and peel strength.
IMPACT RESISTANCE
There are many cores that can make a light, stiff structure. Nida-Core, however, combines the light weight and stiffness of honeycomb with tough polypropylene plus superior bonding properties due to the thermo fused scrim. The combination allows Nida-Core to absorb and dissipate impacts and shocks repeatedly that would cause ultimate catastrophic failure in other core materials.

Plascore produces lightweight panels that incorporate honeycomb and foam cores with a wide variety of facing material; and specialized finished assemblies. Our capabilities include professional adhesive formulating, metal brazing, surface treatment, powder coat painting, QC testing, Color analysis, Adhesive bonding, Cnc milling center, edge treatments and closeouts. Plascore's engineers can aid in the design of a lightweight honeycomb panel solution for any application.
Current honeycomb panel markets that we serve are Aerospace, Automotive, Medical, Construction, Marine, Recreational, Transportation, Architectural, Consumer and the Military.

The use of specialist composite panels in Aerospace and Defence is becoming more and more an active part of our core business. Our design team regularily work closely with companies such as BAe Systems, Specialist Military Marine Companies, Data Protection companies and national security bodies.
We are able to work with Project Designers to be able to manufacture bespoke requirements on large scale to one off project basis.
Due to the nature of these projects, we have a dedicated team of engineers who are able to provide technical advice and quotation on a job by job basis.

Finishes used for Honeycomb Panels are typically ALUMINIUM SHEET, PRE-FINISHED STEEL SHEET, ALUZINC SHEET, PLYWOOD, OSB, GLASS REINFORCED PLASTIC, PVC and STAINLESS STEEL. These facing materials can be used in combinations with different inner and outer to suit application and in a variety of differing gauges and thickness. Honeycomb Panels widths can be manufactured to suit client specification up to 1200 mm with lengths variable to suit materials and or project requirements.
If required we will bond client supplied materials to core thus ensuring identical match to existing or differing type of structures adjacent to area of panel usage.
The combination of cores and faces specified affects the honeycomb panels weights, strength and stiffness greatly and should be selected to ensure the final properties meet the application requirements in terms of panel performance and cost price.
