Material and Structure
The Grille Panel is a composite board that combines two high-performance materials:
- Base Board: Made of GMT (Glass-mat reinforced Thermoplastic), which provides a lightweight yet high-strength foundation.
- Surface Slats: Consists of PET foam slats (Polyethylene Terephthalate) attached to the GMT base.
