TIPS TO AUGMENT THE AESTHETICS OF BUILDINGS WITH ALUMINIUM PANELS

Many buildings these days use aluminium cladding panels to serve many purposes. It is a great addition to a building since it minimises the dead load on a building’s supporting structure. When it comes to specifications of these panels, it can differ from one person to another, based on individual needs. It also depends on the structural and overall design requirements of the building.

INTRODUCTION

BENEFITS OF ALUMINIUM CLADDING

These aluminium cladding panels are widely used in many buildings and are pretty easy to install. Many builders use it for rain screen cladding to protect the building from rain and wind and also from adverse weather conditions.

With these panels, architects and builders are also able to enhance the aesthetics of the building.

These come in a variety of different materials such as zinc, copper, stainless steel, bronze, corten steel, ceramic, and steel. Each one of these materials has its own merits.

For example, zinc is very flexible, can adapt many different styles and is free of major maintenance.

Using aluminium for these panels offer high-

strength-to weight ratio properties that help architects meet the necessary performance specifications.

You can find a lot of companies offering anodised cladding panels in UK. Anodising is a finishing process on aluminium.

Anodising aluminium is a simple process in which an electrical current is passed from the anode to the cathode.

The current releases oxygen which in turn reacts with aluminium to form aluminium oxide.

THE PROCESS OF ANODISING

Anodised aluminium cladding used in buildings is visually appealing since the colour of the metal changes.

It offers great corrosion resistance and there is no risk of chalking or fading. The process of producing these panels can be done in an environmental-friendly manner.

The anodised panels also provide excellent abrasion resistance properties. In addition, these panels are 100% recyclable.
