AluFiber®
 

The recreational vehicle industry is continuously optimizing the functional characteristics of its bodywork.

Surface damage due to severe hail storms is one of the biggest issues in recreational vehicles. Euramax has done extensive research on this subject and has now developed a truly innovative product, AluFiber®.

AluFiber® is a composite product consisting of a pre-coated aluminum front side with a Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic layer on the reverse side.

This combination leads to improved dent resistance, superb flatness (no telegraphing), high durability and an automotive exterior appearance. Due to the aluminium exterior there is no crack forming as in Glass Reinforced Plastic.

AluFiber® is available on coil and in sheet in the two thicknesses: .051" and .099"

In the brochures you can find an overview of the EV®-AluFiber product line which helps you to construct innovative roofings and sidings.
