Adzel...real world benefits? Drawbacks?
I've seen a few manufacturers tout the use of Adzel, which appears to be a world of improvement over marine grade wood in terms of weight. What real-world benefits does that translate into? Any draw...

Per information from Skyline who makes the Koala which has Azdel exterior walls, the Azdel is a substrate that is used in place of luaun. The Azdel is laminated to a brand of fiberglass siding, Lamilux 4000, a high gloss, metal flake finished product.
I have a Koala. What I like about the Lamilux 4000 is there are no fiberglass strands visible like there is in a lot of the Filon siding.
Lamilux 4000
I think that, like most Filon products, Lamilux (from Germany) has to be bonded to something stronger (Azdel,Luan) because it's so thin.
But I see that the Filon people (Crane Composites) are marketing a 0.5cm board "Noble Select All Composite Wood Free Sheet Glass Panels" that can probably be laminated directly to the core without additional backing.

Guess it's their own version of Azdel or Compositek.
