Havellux® open-cell aluminum foam

Havellux® is open-cell aluminum foam for design and architecture: futuristic in appearance, every piece is unique. The material is particularly light (0.5 g/cm³), temperature-resistant up to 500 °C and, because no adhesives are used, non-combustible. It is easy to process and 100 % recyclable.

What is Havellux, and what is it used for?

Havellux® is open-cell aluminum foam: an eye-catcher in which every piece is unique. Havellux® adds visual accents. Aluminum foam can be used, for example, for lamps and other interior installations; as a wall and façade element, the product makes a striking feature in architecture. The material is easy to process and can be used in a wide variety of applications.

How does Havellux behave in heat and fire?

The metal foam is temperature-resistant up to 500 °C. Because no adhesives are used, the product is non-combustible and adds nothing to the fire load. With no adhesives in the product, Havellux® remains purely metallic, and this also makes it 100 % recyclable and therefore environmentally friendly and resource-efficient.

Does Havellux shield against electromagnetic radiation and sound?

Yes. The material provides shielding against electromagnetic radiation and sound waves. Depending on the density and thickness of the element, sound waves are damped and distortion behavior in acoustic systems is improved: a property that makes Havellux® interesting beyond its appearance for wall and façade elements and for interior installations.

How easily can Havellux be processed and installed?

Using aluminum foam achieves a very low weight (0.5 g/cm³). The open-cell foam is easy to process mechanically, whether by drilling, sawing or milling. The low weight and easy processing make the aluminum foam easy to install in every application. With no adhesives in the product, Havellux® is also 100 % recyclable and therefore environmentally friendly and resource-efficient.

Havellux at a glance: which properties count?

Frequently asked questions

Is Havellux flammable?

No. Because no adhesives are used, the product is non-combustible and adds nothing to the fire load; it is temperature-resistant up to 500 °C.

How heavy is Havellux?

Havellux® is particularly light: 0.5 g/cm³. The low weight makes the elements easy to install in every application.

How does Havellux differ from closed-cell aluminum foam?

Havellux® is open-cell aluminum foam: the open pore structure makes every piece unique and is designed for visual accents in design and architecture, for example as a wall and façade element or for lamps in interiors.

Is Havellux recyclable?

Yes. With no adhesives in the product, Havellux® is 100 % recyclable and therefore environmentally friendly and resource-efficient.
