Vier Aluminiumprofile nebeneinander mit verschiedenen Innen- und Außenpassungen

Aluminium profile manufacturer – We produce the right product for every application.

We manufacture the majority of our products from aluminium. The material is easy to process, has a low density and is corrosion resistant. Furthermore, aluminium is very easy to recycle.

On request, we can also manufacture your aluminium profile with an anodised finish or other suitable surface finish. In production engineering and with corresponding batch sizes, we work with specially developed special machines to ensure the highest quality and precision for every aluminium profile.

Do you just need a single aluminium profile? No problem – we also produce one-off parts. Just contact us with your requirements.

Precise manufacturing , flexible application: the extruded profile

IsoProfil is specialised on extruded-alu-profile. Any extruded profile is formed by materiel pushed through a die by using a stamp. We divide in direct and indirect operation. The indirect extrusion means In the field of extrusion we reach an exceptionally high precision , which is above the standards DIN EN 12020-2 and DIN EN 755-9. With innovative technology we work, depending on the profile geomertry, with tolerances down to ± 0.01 mm and offer any desired extruded in various shapes and sizes and optimum surface finish. Other Materials such as brass or copper and as well as magnesium can be manufactured too.

The advantages of aluminium profiles

  • Corrosion resistance – Aluminium is a corrosion-resistant metal that creates a natural protective layer. The coating formed is extremely thin and is created when aluminium comes into contact with an oxidising atmosphere. This protective aluminium oxide layer helps to protect the surface of the metal from corrosion. In addition, a surface treatment such as painting or anodising can further improve the general corrosion resistance of the metal.
     
  • Lower transport costs thanks to low weight – It is a well-known light metal with a weight of around 2.71 g/cm³. It has roughly one-third of the weight of steel, making it easier and cheaper to transport than most other metals. The strength of aluminium can be modified by using different alloying elements to give it other advantages such as higher strength or easier shapeability.
     
  • Environmentally friendly – Contrary to what most people think, aluminium is 100% recyclable. During production, it is less expensive to use recycled metal than virgin metal from the ground. For this reason, as much recycled material as possible is used during production.
     
  • Cost-efficient thanks to easy processing and machining of the material – The special properties of aluminium make it far easier to process than other metals. In combination with its high durability, it offers a very cost-effective solution for all kinds of profiles.

Fields of application for aluminium

In view of its high corrosion resistance, low density and the fact that it is easy to process, aluminium can be used in a wide range of applications and is therefore our most popular material for our profiles.

Further processing of aluminium profiles

IsoProfil can refine the surfaces of your aluminium profiles by means of electrochemical processes. These include, for example, anodising and galvanising.

During anodising, the outermost metal layer is converted into an oxide or hydroxide to form a thin, glass-hard coating that protects the underlying layers from corrosion and other external, predominantly mechanical influences.

Furthermore, anodising also offers numerous additional design options for aluminium profiles, such as different colour finishes. A galvanic coating of aluminium is also possible. Further possibilities of surface finishing include painting, powder coating and gilding.

Aluminium profiles – FAQ

Since steel is characterised by a higher density, and hence stronger and can withstand correspondingly higher loads, it requires far more intensive processing. Aluminium has a melting point of only 660°C, although it starts to soften at around 210°C. Steel, on the other hand, has to be heated to a temperature of 900-1500°C. In addition, aluminium also has a natural resistance to corrosion. Unlike steel which requires additional treatment, aluminium does not rust. Aluminium is therefore the more cost-efficient metal for profiles.

Aluminium is up to 100% recyclable and produces 92% less carbon dioxid than during the initial processing.
