Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What is the difference between industrial aluminum profiles and standard architectural profiles?

A1: Industrial aluminum profiles prioritize precision and load-bearing capacity. Using alloys like 6061-T6, they offer tighter dimensional tolerances than standard architectural profiles. They undergo rigorous testing and special coatings, specifically designed for large-scale industrial construction.

Q2: How do aluminum profiles enhance the sustainability of solar projects?

A2: Our anodized 6005A-T6 profiles are made from 70% recycled materials, offer corrosion resistance for over 25 years, and require no maintenance. Our modular design reduces installation time by 30%, thereby reducing the project's carbon footprint.

Q3: Can the profiles withstand marine or chemically corrosive environments?

A3: Yes. Our electrophoretic coating (20μm) has passed a 1500-hour salt spray test, and the 5083-H111 alloy offers excellent chloride resistance, making it suitable for offshore platforms and chemical plant projects.
