How do I check order status?
Call us and we can give you an order status update.
We’re concerned we may have to adjust our installation procedures. Can you help?
Yes! Helping you develop best installation procedures for our product as part of our job.
How would you describe the Vixen Composites sandwich panel?
Our panels are made up of fiberglass skins on the top and bottom, with a core material in the middle. They are seamless and have a high strength-to-weight ratio.
What makes the Vixen Composites’ panel superior to other composite panels?
Our Panelogic™ process is unique, where the fiberglass skins are chemically and thermally bonded to the core material. We use high temperatures to fully cure and to bond all materials together. The fiberglass is in tension during processing, to yield a high glass-to-resin ratio, resulting in a stronger panel.
How thick can you produce panels?
We can produce panels anywhere from 0.155” up to 4.0” thick.
How wide can produce panels?
We can produce panels up to 120” wide. We typically trim the very edges of our panels, so technically up to 118” wide.
How long can you produce panels?
We can produce panels to any length, as long as you are able to transport them.
What types of core materials can you use in your panels?
We typically use honeycomb, PET and Polyiso foams. However, we can produce panels with wood and other cores.
Can you produce insulated panels?
Yes, we will select the best core to yield both insulation value, and structural strength to meet your requirements.
Are your panels lighter than wood?
Yes, typically the synthetic cores, along with the fiberglass skins, will yield a panel that is, in most cases lighter than wood.
What are the advantages of using synthetic core and fiberglass over wood?
Our composite panels will not rot, mildew, swell and are water resistant. They are bugproof, so they are impervious to ants, termites, moths, bugs, and beetles.
Do your panels have good screw retention?
Depending on the core materials selected, our composite panels can deliver adequate screw retention to meet your requirements.
What is the best method to fasten your panels to a structure?
Panels can be attached with both fasteners and adhesives or a combination of both.
In what industries are your panels used?
We have composite panels in the transportation (buses, semi-trailers, box trucks, cargo trailers), construction, military, agricultural, marine and truck accessory and after-market industries.
