ALUMINIUM - The perfect choice......

 

 




For extruded profiles, aluminium has great ‘formability’ characteristics making the most complex shapes achievable and then subsequently making the machining and joining together of multiple extrusions a very straightforward process.
These innate qualities make aluminium extrusions the perfect material for a host of finished products and applications, from materials for the home and office - including windows, doors, lighting tracks, awnings, balustrades, tables and chairs to solar panels and exhibition stands.www.marlinwindows.co.uk

Visofold folding doors



Our Visofold folding doors are constructed from profiles with a thermal break. Robust sections enable the creation of large passage-ways providing maximum natural light and panoramic views. Moveable panels that can be folded up to the left or right sit within an outerframe. The system offers flexibility in terms of the possible combinations of folding elements and opening sashes.

This door system can be used in a variety of properties including private domestic dwellings, conservatories, hotels, restaurants and stores to open up a complete wall to create a larger space particularly advantageous in the summer.

Aluminium a 'cradle to cradle' building material

Infinitely recyclable. Aluminium can be recycled again and again without loss of quality. The re-melting of aluminium requires little energy; it saves up to 95% of the energy required for primary aluminium production.
Aesthetically pleasing. Versatile in its ability to accept different surface finishes, for example, anodising and powder coating.

 

A 'cradle to cradle' building material

Aluminium is produced through two different routes: Primary Aluminium from bauxite ore and Recycled Aluminium from processed scrap and used aluminium products.
Bauxite ore is in abundant supply, occurring mainly in tropical and sub-tropical areas such as West Africa, South America and Australia. Once mined and refined it can then be rolled, cast or extruded into anything from architectural structures to aircraft, cars and packaging.
After use it can be recycled repeatedly without loss of its material qualities. This property of infinite recyclability means that up to 75% of the world’s aluminium ever produced is still in productive use, having been through countless loops of its ‘cradle to cradle’ lifecycle.
Given that it only takes 5% of the original energy used to create primary aluminium, recycled aluminium is a true eco-friendly material that can be made available not just once but indefinitely for future generations.
Therefore Aluminium offers a building material that is sustainable and effectively inexhaustible.

Recycling 1 tonne of aluminium........

Did you know? Recycling 1 tonne of aluminium saves 9 tonnes of CO2 emissions All aluminium products can be recycled after use. Its recyclability is one of the huge benefits of using aluminium.

Aluminium is arguably the most sustainable building material in the world

Did you know:
Aluminium is arguably the most sustainable building material in the world and is also highly recyclable. When the old Wembley Stadium was demolished 96% of the aluminium was reclaimed and recycled. The recycling process creates high quality aluminium which loses none of the physical properties of primary aluminium and also uses just 5% of the energy it takes to create primary aluminium.

By using aluminium products you are choosing a material whose production has minimal long term impact to the environment, is sustainable in terms of hundreds of years and endlessly recyclable. Aluminium can rightly be said to be the ultimate building material and the building material of choice for the future.
