Transport systems and re-usable containers made from aluminium
Economical, safe and environmentally friendly:
Aluminium is lightweight, yet extremely stable:
The density of aluminium is only approx. 2.6 to 2.8 g per cm3. That is approx. 1/3 the density of steel. In spite of its low weight, aluminium is extremely strong.
Aluminium is vapour-impermeable
Even when stored over very long periods of time, moisture will not diffuse through the material. In welded construction, an aluminium container can be made in water-vapour proof design.
Aluminium is impact-resistant and extremely strong
Its surface dents on impact, but the force of the blow is absorbed by the deformation.
Aluminium is magnetically neutral
Aluminium is not ferromagnetic. This material characteristic can be of great significance for certain applications.
In addition, aluminium is insensitive to extreme fluctuations in temperature
Within a temperature range of – 80 °C to + 150 °C, the material characteristics remain constant.
Aluminium is fully recyclable
Used aluminium can be melted down and re-used – an important contribution towards the reduction of waste and the protection of the environment.
Aluminium is corrosion-resistant and protects itself
When it comes into contact with oxygen, the surface of aluminium oxidises, and this layer of oxide immediately reforms when damaged. This makes aluminium highly resistant to salt water.
Aluminium is resistant to UV rays
Long periods of storage and exposure to UV rays have no effect on this material.
Aluminium is hygienic
Its smooth surface is easy to clean and odourless. Aluminium containers are ideal for use in areas with high hygiene requirements.
Aluminium can be processed in a wide variety of ways
All standard processing methods – welding, moulding etc. – can be applied to aluminium, and in many cases their application is much easier than with other metals.
Aluminium is antistatic
Aluminium is a good conductor of electricity and heat, an advantage, e. g. when producing housings for electronic installations.
