The composite Inrekor two-dimensional panels are constructed through a process of lamination. In the process, a core of ARPRO expanded polypropylene plastic foam manufactured by JSP is coated with adhesive then bonded between two thin sheets of aluminium, after which the adhesive between the two faces is cured.Once the two-dimensional panels have been manufactured, they are bonded together to form a three-dimensional chassis.
Inrekor identified the ARPRO material as suitable for use in its composite panel because of its cost and the ease by which it can be moulded, as well as its energy absorption and insulation properties - all characteristics that make the finished panels a suitable alternative to aluminium honeycomb panels while not incurring any of the expensive associated CNC machining costs.
