Aluminium profiles and accessories

Discover the go-to solution for all construction tasks in mechanical engineering operations. Using the high-strength aluminium profiles from the item MB Building Kit System, any type of industrial structure can be assembled neatly and rapidly without requiring additional surface treatment. Corrosion doesn't stand much of a chance thanks to the anodised profile surface, which ensures the aluminium profiles retain their elegant look. This eliminates the need to apply corrosion protection and carry out regular maintenance - a clear advantage over steel. Get more news about C Profile Aluminium,you can vist our website!

Further advantages to aluminium profiles
When using aluminium profiles in mechanical engineering operations, only simple machining and assembly steps are required, such as sawing, drilling, screw-fastening, clamping or clipping. The building kit system offers the simplest means of making any kind of adjustment or alignment. Machining aluminium profiles does not require a wide range of machinery. Industrial companies using item aluminium profiles therefore remain in complete control, as timing and quality are not dependent on external providers.
The aluminium profiles from item encompass the mutually compatible lines 5 to 12, as well as special angled and flat profiles. A comprehensive portfolio of matching accessories opens up a fantastic range of potential applications.
Wood and wood imitations are permanently in trend - at home between one's own four walls as well as outside. In both interior and exterior architecture wooden constructions are a popular stylistic element. But as great as wood is as a building material, it also has its disadvantages especially in terms of maintenance. Aluminum is therefore preferred, particularly for large glass facades. In order to give the facade a natural or unusual look, it is possible to optically enhance the aluminum surfaces with sublimation printing or to design them even more creatively. The special ECOSUBLIFIX primers of our Ecopolifix brand form the basis for the print.

Diverse design possibilities through sublimation printing
In sublimation printing ink-designed decorations are transferred from the substrate to a coated surface. This transfer occurs through heat treatment with a special coating (base material) and is also called a film transfer. For the transfer of the embellishments two industrial processes can be applied, depending on the geometry of the parts to be sublimated. For aluminum profiles or objects with a more complex geometry, the transfer film is wrapped around the support and welded. The air is extracted to create a vacuum and to ensure good adhesion of the film. The film transfer takes place in the oven at 200°C for a few minutes. For aluminum plates or flat objects the transfer film is stretched over a carrier. The decoration is transferred in a few minutes using a printing press with a 200°C heated plate.

With both methods the inside of the ink - the sublimation ink - is protected from external influences. Accordingly, the finished decor has excellent durability. Depending on the customer wishes, wood, marble or granite decorations, or numerous other designs, patterns, colours and shades can be imitated. Originally, the sublimation technique was developed for the textile sector, but for several decades it has also been used for the design of aluminum windows, window frames, curtain walls, doors or sectional doors, etc.

Companhia Brasileira de Aluminio

Brazil’s largest aluminium producer Companhia Brasileira de Aluminio (CBA) has committed towards a science-based target (SBT) for emission reduction in line with 1.5° C, making it the foremost Brazilian organization to deliver sustainable-certified aluminium.Get more news about C Profile Aluminium,you can vist our website!

The Latin American manufacturing giant possesses total annual production of around 480,000 tonnes and shoulders the complete aluminium production process, from bauxite mining to producing aluminium sheets and coils.

As the aluminium industry is one of the world's biggest sources of industrial emissions with the International Energy Agency ranking the sector as the fourth-largest industrial CO2 emitter, responsible for around 3% of total direct CO2 emissions.

However, CBA now joins a growing number of other aluminium producers committed to science-based emissions targets and ambitious decarbonisation plans, incorporation Ball Corporation in the US and Hulamin in South Africa.

According to UN figures, predominantly buildings and construction industry account for more than 35% of global energy use and nearly 40% of energy-related CO2 emission and as such, the race is on to decarbonise the materials that supply the sector.
