Protean’s Honeycomb Metal Panels (HMPs) are one of the most economical solutions for projects needing large, smooth expanses with extreme flatness.

Honeycomb construction creates high strength and increased wind load resistance in a low-weight package. Because honeycomb panels are significantly lighter than aluminum plate or aluminum composite (ACM) panels, they require limited support infrastructure, which reduces the total cost of the building envelope. Protean’s HMPs bring durability and sustainability to large-scale projects such as education, government and civic buildings. HMPs cost less than aluminum plate and are competitively priced with ACM. Protean has the highest HMP production capacity in North America.

Available in a pressure equalized rainscreen configuration, Protean AAMA 508-Certified HMPs provide a multiple-line-of-defense approach for rain penetration control.

Protean HC-2000RS panels are tested for static and dynamic air pressure differentials and, with appropriate air barrier and carrier systems, are effective in controlling water penetration from wind-induced pressure.

Configured as a pressure equalized rainscreen, Protean HC-2000RS panels control water intrusion while still offering crisp edges with sharp reveals in the same color as the panel face, without sacrificing flatness or panel edge strength. We construct our HMPs with non-combustible materials for NFPA-285 applications. Aluminum face, core and liner materials make them infinitely recyclable.

When a project is designed with refractive finishes, Protean’s Honeycomb Metal Panels stand out! HMPs don't show the usual distortion and stiffener read-through seen in other panel systems. The result is greater consistency, particularly with mirror and prismatic finishes.

Best for projects needing:

  • AAMA 508 tested pressure equalized rainscreen
  • Large, ‘dead flat’ expanses
  • High strength and wind load resistance
  • Large panels
  • Crisp aesthetic without caulk lines
  • Simple/geometric panel configurations
  • Sustainability and low maintenance
  • Flat surfaces for refractive finishes

Best for projects needing:
