Why Aluminium
Aluminium Metal:
● It is found in nature as bauxite ore and is one of the most abundant elements in the world.
● It is obtained by separation and the separation process is done by electrolysis.
● Pure Aluminium has a soft structure, but its alloys are 15 times as durable as its pure form.
● They weigh a third of steel and copper. They are easily forged, machined and shaped.
● It has a high corrosion resistance. It is not a toxic metal and has no magnetic properties.
● It is an environmentally friendly and recyclable metal.
● The energy used for its recycling is 5 percent of the energy used for its initial production.
● Aluminium, which is used in many branches of industry, has a great importance in the world economy.
In addition to all these features, the most interesting feature of Aluminium is its beautiful appearance and ease of production. It has good corrosion resistance, low density, high weight-to-strength ratio, and high anti-breaking strength data.
Aluminium has been widely used in construction, automotive, packaging, defense, paint and transportation industries due to its lightness, strength, superior corrosion resistance, high thermal and electrical conductivity, easy forming, machining and heat treatment, as well as being the cheapest and structurally effective material. Therefore, it is the second most produced metal after iron and steel.
Aluminium materials that have the most intensive use in the architectural field consist of profiles obtained by extrusion method. Standard Aluminium profiles, sliding door profiles, rail profiles, furniture frame and handle profiles, hexagonal, box and cylinder type profiles, lama profiles, H, L, T, U, Z type standard profiles, angle brackets, sigma profiles for showcases and stands, body profiles, glass balcony profiles, guillotine profiles, office partition system profiles, blinds, mosquito nets, ventilation and grille profiles, hinge, balustrade, railing, grill and handrail profiles, blinds, moldings, sills, windowsills, awnings, sunshades and sill profiles in countless types and sizes made of Aluminium extrusion profiles are used in the architectural field.
