A method for the production of a flat structural sandwich comprises continuously preparing sheeting 4 by means of a screw extruder 2 at a material temperature of from 120‹ to 220‹ C. from a polyethylene having a density of from 0.918 to 0.930 g./cm.3 and melt index (ASTM D 1238-65 T) of from 0.2 to 5, continuously covering the sheeting on each surface by a pair of rollers 7 with a film 6 having a thickness of 0À01 to 0.2 mm. of a terpolymer containing 60 to 90% by weight of ethylene units, 0.5 to 20% by weight of units of an ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid e.g. acrylic acid and 0À5 to 20% by weight of units of an ester of an ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid e.g. t-butyl acrylate, the resultant laminate being continuously covered on each surface by a pair of rollers 9 with metal sheeting 8 e.g. aluminium, copper, brass or steel, having a thickness of from 0.05 to 2.5 mm. and at a temperature of from 100‹ to 250‹ C., the whole being bonded into a sandwich construction by the rollers 9 under a pressure of from 5 to 50 kp/cm., the product being cooled in cooling zone 10 to a temperature of less than 60‹ C. and cut into panels by cutting means 11.
