The Corex range can be supplied in a variety of conditions, tailored to the individual needs of the customer:

Corex standard honeycomb can be expanded to the following sizes:

Other block sizes are available on request. Depending on cell size, up to 18000mm can be achieved in the W direction.

Aluminium honeycomb can potentially be expanded “by hand” when slices are thin and/or with a large cell (1” and ¾”). However, for thicker honeycomb slices, a small cell size and/or high density, specialist automated expansion equipment will be needed. Corex can supply aluminium honeycomb in both expanded and unexpanded formats. Please contact us for further information, or read our blog for more details.
