I buy it all the time in small and large quantities, and in many cell
and thickness dimensions, from:

http://www.honeylitelouvers.com/whatis.html

I use it for lighting, but here is what they say:

HONEYCOMB: The "honeycomb" material that is the basis of our products
was originally developed as a low density-high strength core for
structural use, primarily for the aircraft industry. Utilizing its
intrinsic characteristics, we have developed a family of effective and
versatile glare control devices.


REDUCE GLA Honeylite louvers help control brightness from a
variety of light sources. Whether you are a lighting designer or a
manufacturer, we can help you control glare. From MR11 point sources
to studio high output fluorescent fixtures, we have louvers and
accessories tailored to the application.

Hope that helps,
Brian
