ALUSTEP® 500 is a sandwich panel with a core in aluminum honeycomb faced with fibreglass impregnated with epoxy resin. The application of ALUSTEP SERIES’ panels permits huge savings as far as weight and thickness of slabs of natural stones, such as marbles and granite and mosaics are concerned. With the reduction of material and weight, material, logistics and installation costs can be significantly reduced.
