Standard thicknesses are: 3.5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 18, 20, 25 and 28 mm. ThermHex is available in the standard sheet size of 2500mm x 1200mm or can be cut to size, if required. Bespoke sheet sizes up to 7500mm long are available subject to minimum production quantities.

We can also bond the material to a range of facing materials, such as metals, plastics, timber and decorative laminate to offer benefits in terms of aesthetics, strength and lightness.
