ACM Panel Fabricator for Rainscreen and Metal Wall Panels
Sure-Panel® fabricates aluminum composite panels, rainscreen panel systems, and metal wall panels for architects, contractors, and installers. Every panel is engineered, CNC-routed, and built in Burnsville, Minnesota by CNC Metalcraft®, then shipped nationwide.
We fabricate ACM in 3 mm, 4 mm, and 6 mm, with PE or FR core as specified, in sizes up to 59 inches by 193 inches. Faces come from Alucobond, Alfrex, Reynobond, Etalbond, and ALPOLIC, in standard and custom colors. Most work is 4 mm ACM. Sure-Panel rainscreen panels use a dry joint on our extrusion, with no caulk and no exposed fasteners. Wet seal ACM uses a caulked joint. We also fabricate aluminum plate panels, column covers and beam wraps, S-Lock tile, phenolic panels, and architectural extrusions, including the Sure-Panel® Quick-Snap™ concealed-fastener system.
A rainscreen puts a ventilated cavity behind the panel face so the wall can drain and dry. Our ACM rainscreen system is tested to AAMA 508 and ASTM E283, E330, and E331. Those tests apply to the ACM system only. For how dry joint and wet seal compare, and how to write the spec, see the rainscreen panel systems guide and our specs and CAD details, including CSI 07 42 13 and 05 58 13.
CNC Metalcraft® has over 75,000 sq ft across two Burnsville, MN buildings. From here we supply metal wall panels for Minnesota and Midwest projects and ship finished crates nationwide. Recent work includes Databank in Brooklyn Park, Eden Prairie Central Middle School, Navy Pier in Chicago, and Legacy Bank in Wichita. See more in the project gallery. Industry pages cover schools, healthcare, hotels, and auto dealerships.
Column covers and beam wraps are available in hairline, reveal, and caulk joints, in aluminum or ACM, from 8 inches in diameter and up to 15 feet in one piece. A column cover sizing guide and the ACM cost per square foot page explain how diameter, length, system, and finish affect the work. ACM fabrication starts at $6/SF (fabrication only; pricing varies by project). Fabrication takes as little as 3–4 weeks, or about 6–8 weeks with drafting.
Send drawings, square footage, system, and color preferences and we will prepare shop drawings, fabrication, and crating. Call (952) 938-3356 or use the quote form on this page.
