Aluminium facts

• A hundred years ago, aluminium was a rarely used construction material - today it is the second most widely used material worldwide.
  
• Aluminium alloys offer strength of up to 26 tones per square inch.
  
• Aluminium's long-term durability is illustrated by the aluminium castings used in the construction of the Eros statue, Piccadilly Circus, still in perfect working order today.
  
• Over 150,000 tonnes of aluminium are used by the building and construction industry each year.

Material Benefits

• Low-weight, high-strength, formability and corrosion resistance are some of the key properties of aluminium.
  
• Powder-coating technology allows aluminium to be coated in virtually any colour to give an attractive and durable finish.
  
• Because Aluminium is ideally suited for recycling, it is justly described as the correct, environmentally friendly material for curtain walling, doors and windows.
  
• Aluminium's properties mean that building components can be made slim and rigid, without the need for separate reinforcement.
  
• It is naturally durable and can be extruded and formed into efficient shapes to suit particular applications.
