Houston TX's Leader in Metal & Aluminum Composite Panel Systems -- Design, Fabrication

Used around the world i a wide range of architectural and specialty applications, Metal Composite Material (MCM) is a durable, versatile and affordable architectural facade. It is corrosion-resistant, lightweight and rigid, exceptionally flat, daringly formable and distinctively colorful. MCM Panel Systems provide numerous advantages, such as strength, durability, competitive price, and ease of maintenance.

By utilizing CEI's Rainscreen Systems, Route and Return Silicone Joint System, or Weather-Tight Dry Gasket System, clients are able to broaden architectural horizons through appearance, weatherability, fire resistance, sustainability and design flexibility.

Aluminum continues to be the predominant finish while natural materials such as zinc, copper, stainless steel and titanium have been introduced to the industry. Limitless colors and finishes are able to be applied to aluminum and steel composite panels while the alternative metals mentioned are often used for the beauty of their natural finishes.

CEI has four systems for the design of MCM, the R3000, R4000, W5000 and D6000 series, each system with its own unique characteristics.

Hear directly from our clients:

We would like to take this opportunity to express our appreciation of the job your firm did on the Chapman BMW project. CEI Materials took over the ACM scope of work at mid-stream and completed it with minimum disruption to our schedule. This occurred at a critical point in the project. Your extra effort with the smooth transition is greatly appreciated. We have received several compliments on the ACM Panels. It is a striking design. Thanks for being part of our successful project and we look forward to working with you and CEI Materials in the future.
