Originally developed for NASA spacecraft, aluminum honeycomb has become a staple in modern facade systems, delivering rigidity and flatness without the weight penalty. In BIPV applications, manufacturers like Mitrex use it as a structural core, allowing a single panel to function as both cladding and an energy-generating component.
