Aluminium is one of the ubiquitous materials seen and used all around us. This silvery-white, lightweight metal which is soft and malleable was discovered comparatively late unlike other metals in just 1825 by Danish chemist and physicist Hans Christian Ørsted. With an atomic number in the periodic table of 13, Aluminium is the most abundant…

It is not enough that office spaces are just functional. They need to be aesthetically pleasing as well. Design empathy has to be a crucial component in construction and it has to be accommodated without compromising on operational elements. Exactly for this reason we see more and more office spaces deploying aluminium for various uses.…

Aluminium is one of the most abundantly available elements in earth’s crust and infinitely recyclable. You may wonder why it continues to be expensive. This is largely because of the huge quantum of electricity used in the extraction process. Aluminium ore is called bauxite. Bauxite can be considered an impure aluminium oxide. The major impurities…

Understanding aluminium extrusion process Aluminium extrusion is a process by which a billet made of an aluminium alloy is forced to pass through a die with a particular cross-sectional profile. The extruded shapes differ according to the die shape of the cross-sectional profile. They could be of three main kinds; a) Solid, with no enclosed…

Aluminium like any other metal comes with its own unique physical and chemical properties. It is these properties which makes it suitable for various applications across industries. Most Aluminium used is in fact alloys of Aluminium, which means it is a combination of Aluminium with some other metal. It is these metals which are added…

Aluminium is a very popular material for producing profiles due to its versatility. It is malleable, light weight, cost effective and at the same time adds durability to structures where they are used. Aluminium extrusion is a process by which an aluminium alloy billet is passed with force through a tooling die which has a…

Aluminium Composite Panels or ACPs are also known as Sandwich Panels. ACPs are made of Aluminium Composite Material (ACM) and are flat panels consisting of two thin coil-coated aluminium sheets bonded to a non-aluminium core usually made of a polymer or thermoplastic polythene. The sandwich panels essentially have three layers: a low-density core and a…
