Food: Due to its natural oxide surface-coating aluminium can safely be used in areas of food preparation and service. Please contact our technical department for information on aluminium’s reaction to specific foodstuffs. 


Lightness: Aluminum is the lightest of all common metals with a specific gravity of 2.7, being approximately one third that of steel. The excellent strength to weight ratio of aluminium delivers substantial weight saving benefits of up to 50% when compared with equivalent steel assemblies. Significant cost savings are also achieved in terms of transportation (fuel economy) and easier / faster handling and fixing (fewer personnel).


Non-Magnetic Properties: The non-magnetic properties of aluminium make it very suitable for use in computer rooms and similar applications involving electronic equipment. Aluminium is also used for electrostatic screening purposes. Reflection of Radiant Energy: Aluminium is an excellent reflector of light and heat. About 75% of light and 90% of heat are reflected, making it widely used for lighting fixtures, decorative trims, and insulating applications. 


Recycling: Aluminium has the advantage of a high scrap value and is therefore economic to recycle into reusable highgrade metal. Recycling aluminium needs only 5% of the energy required to extract from bauxite ore. 


Today the use of reprocessed aluminium accounts for 30% of the production of the primary metal. This process can be continually repeated. Aluminium is therefore a permanently stored energy resource available for future generations.
