Building & Construction Sections
Our architectural aluminum profiles are designed to meet the highest standards of modern construction. They offer exceptional durability, weather resistance, and design flexibility, making them ideal for both residential and commercial applications. With a variety of finishes and configurations available, our profiles can enhance any architectural vision while providing long-lasting performance.
Why Use Aluminum in Building and Architecture?
Aluminum is a highly versatile material widely used in modern architecture for its lightweight strength, corrosion resistance, and sleek aesthetic appeal. Its ability to withstand weathering with minimal maintenance makes it ideal for façades, window frames, roofing, and structural elements.
Aluminum is also cost-effective in the long run—while the initial material cost may be higher than alternatives like steel or PVC, its durability, low maintenance, and recyclability significantly reduce lifecycle costs.
Easily shaped and customizable, aluminum supports innovative design while being 100% recyclable—making it a smart, sustainable choice for contemporary and eco-conscious construction.
Aluminum's Impact on Modern Architecture
We can thank Aluminum for the changing image of modern cities and towns. The clarity of lines, the desire to grow skyward, the beauty, functionality and environmental compatibility of present-day megalopolises.
The glass faces of skyscrapers are supported by lightweight and sturdy Aluminum frames. Entertainment, Trade and Exhibition centres literally rest on Aluminum frameworks. Stadiums, pools and other sports facilities are also built using Aluminum structures.
This metal has become one of the most useful materials among builders, architects and designers, revolutionizing the way we construct and design modern buildings. The versatility of aluminum allows for innovative architectural solutions that were previously impossible with traditional materials.
From curtain walls to structural frameworks, aluminum continues to shape the skylines of major cities worldwide, offering both aesthetic appeal and structural integrity that meets the demands of contemporary architecture.
Curtain Wall Systems
A curtain wall is an outer covering of a building in which the outer walls are non-structural and utilized only to keep the weather out. As curtain wall is non-structural type, it can be made of lightweight materials, reducing costs of construction.
When glass is used as curtain wall, the main advantage is that most of natural light can enter within the building. The curtain wall does not carry any structural load from the building other than its own dead load weight.
The wall transfers lateral wind loads that are incident upon it to the structure of main building through connections at floors or columns of the building. A curtain wall is designed to resist water infiltration, resist air and absorb sway induced by wind and other forces acting on the building.
Modern curtain wall systems incorporate advanced thermal breaks and energy-efficient glazing to meet today's sustainability requirements while maintaining architectural aesthetics and providing superior weather protection.
