Properties of Aluminium

Lightweight

Aluminium has a low density, which makes it lightweight and easy to handle. It is approximately three times lighter than steel, making it an ideal choice for applications where weight is a critical factor.

High strength

Although aluminium is lightweight, it has high strength and can withstand significant loads. It is commonly used in the aerospace and automotive industries, where its high strength-to-weight ratio is particularly useful.

Corrosion-resistant

Aluminium is highly resistant to corrosion, due to the formation of a thin oxide layer on the surface of the metal. This layer protects the underlying metal from further corrosion and makes aluminium ideal for outdoor applications.

Recyclable

Aluminium is highly recyclable, and it can be recycled indefinitely without losing its properties. This makes it a sustainable choice and an important material for achieving a circular economy.
