Specialised Cut to Size Metal for Construction Applications
Metals are integral to construction for their robustness, weather resistance, and structural integrity in frameworks, plumbing, and facade systems.
With over 25 years’ experience in supplying metal for the construction industry, we can provide a range of metal profiles cut to size for use in a variety of applications.
Metal for construction applications
Our inventory is carefully selected to cater to the construction industry's unique requirements:
Aluminium
Aluminium is a top choice in global construction due to its lightness, strength, durability, and resistance to corrosion. It provides architects and designers with flexibility, making it a common selection for interior and exterior structures such as ceilings, walls, window frames, roofing, HVAC systems, and in the construction of bridges and stadiums.
Stainless Steel
Stainless Steel stands out in contemporary building projects for its robustness, resilience, adaptability, corrosion and fire resistance, and minimal maintenance. It's utilised on the exteriors of buildings for cladding and internally for its visual appeal in features like handrails and countertops.
Metal Profiles and Applications
We offer a diverse range of metal profiles suitable for various construction applications:
We stock the following metal profiles:
- Framework and Bracing: Ideal for creating structural outlines and bracing light structures.
- Edge Protection and Reinforcement: They protect edges and reinforce corners where two surfaces meet.
- Custom Frameworks: Perfect for non-standard dimensions in custom window frames and support structures.
- Architectural Detailing: Suitable for providing asymmetrical edging in complex design angles.
- Corrosive Environments: Utilised in external framing in coastal or chemically exposed areas.
- Load Bearing Elements: Serve as crucial load-bearing elements in building frameworks.
Supports and Rails: Act as supports for walls, ceilings, and as rails.
Cable Management: Used in organising and routing electrical wiring and plumbing.
Piping and Railings: Used for lightweight piping, handrails, and balustrades.
Structural Columns and Beams: Serve as structural columns or support beams.
- Durable Piping and Railings: Ideal for structural applications requiring durability and corrosion resistance.
- Trim and Finishings: Commonly used for trim, finishings, and protective edges.
- Mounting Brackets: Used to create brackets for various installations.
- Structural Trim: Used for structural trim and support in high-traffic areas.
- Framing for High-Traffic Areas: Used in commercial kitchens and hospitals for framing.
- Decorative Applications: Used for decorative purposes, spacers, and lightweight structural components.
- Lighting Fixtures: Utilised in the manufacture of lighting fixtures.
- Reinforcement and Supports: Often used in concrete reinforcement and as support rods.
- Marine Applications: Used in marine construction for corrosion-resistant railings and fittings.
- Frames and Mounts: Used in frame structures and mounts for stability.
- Window and Door Frames: Utilised in constructing window and door frames
- Durable Frameworks: Used for constructing durable frames and supports.
- Medical Equipment: Used in manufacturing non-reactive medical equipment and fixtures.
- Cladding and Roofing: Widely used for cladding, roofing, and siding.
- Safety Flooring: Known as checker plates, used for anti-slip flooring, ramps, and staircases.
Architectural Facades: Commonly used for facades, interior design elements, and hygienic surfaces.
Food Processing Plants: Utilised for non-toxic and easy-to-clean surfaces in food processing.
Partitioning and Wall Finishing: Used in drywall partitions for a seamless joining of panels.
Ceiling Trims: Serve as trims for suspended ceilings.
Support and Frameworks: Utilised in framing systems for ceilings and lightweight frameworks.
