Introduction of Aluminum Cladding

Aluminium cladding is a type of cladding made from a thin layer of aluminum coating on the exterior. Some aluminium cladding is structured as a layer of polyethene plastic in between two external aluminium sheets. However, the safest type of aluminum cladding is solid aluminium coated with heat resistant powder. The powder coating will char when exposed to heat, but the aluminium itself will not melt nor burn, greatly reducing fire risk.
 Aluminum cladding comes in a huge range of types and styles. It can even mimic other natural materials such as timber. Some of the most common finishes for aluminium cladding panels include a smooth texture, timber look, batten and weatherboarding.  Aluminium cladding can come in panels or a sheet.

Benefits of Aluminium House Cladding

One of the main draws of aluminium cladding is its weight. As a lightweight material - weighing significantly less than brick, timber, or weatherboard - Aluminium has an easy installation and transport, as well as a low carbon footprint. This makes it one of the more affordable cladding materials.
Aluminium cladding is also 100% recyclable, making it an incredibly sustainable material with endless application in the construction industry. Aluminium cladding also dramatically improves insulation, which can help minimize the use of energy-wasting temperature control methods in the home such as a heater or air conditioner. Better insulation also means a higher level of soundproofing, helping to protect your privacy and muffle the sound that permeates through your walls from outside.
Aluminium cladding is extremely durable and unlike other metals it will not rust or corrode, even when exposed to the weather or over long periods of time. This is because aluminium has a protective oxide coating that keeps it pristine for many years.
Another benefit to aluminium is that it has a melting temperature of 660°c, making solid aluminium one of the most fire resistant materials available. Because of this, Aluminium cladding works well in areas with high fire risks.
