What are the benefits of using aluminium cladding?

Aluminium cladding offers several benefits, including durability, low maintenance, weather resistance, and fire resistance. It is also lightweight, easy to install, and available in various colors and finishes for design versatility.

How does aluminium cladding perform in extreme weather conditions?

Aluminium cladding is highly resistant to weather extremes, including rain, snow, wind, and UV rays. It does not warp, rot, or corrode, making it suitable for a variety of climates, including coastal areas.

Can aluminium cladding be retrofitted?

Aluminium cladding can be installed over various existing materials, such as wood, brick, or concrete, as long as the underlying structure is sound and properly prepared.

Does aluminium cladding make the interior of a building hot?

No, aluminium cladding does not typically make the interior of a building hot. In fact, when installed correctly with proper insulation, aluminium cladding can help keep the interior cooler by:

• Heat Reflection: Aluminium has high reflectivity, meaning it reflects a significant portion of solar radiation rather than absorbing it. This helps prevent heat from being transferred to the interior of the building, keeping it cooler.
• Thermal Insulation: Aluminium cladding systems are often installed with insulation materials, which act as a barrier to heat transfer. This insulation prevents heat from entering in the summer and helps retain warmth in the winter, improving energy efficiency.
• Encourages Airflow: Our aluminium cladding systems encourage ventilated by allowing an air gap between the cladding and the building. This air gap allows for airflow, helping to dissipate heat and reduce heat buildup.
