FAQ

Are aluminum profiles resistant to corrosion?

Yes, aluminum profiles have natural corrosion resistance due to the formation of a protective oxide layer. However, for more severe environments, additional treatments like anodizing may be applied.

Does Aluminum profile rust?

No, aluminum profiles do not rust. However, they can corrode over time, but aluminum naturally forms a protective oxide layer that resists corrosion. For added protection in harsh environments, additional treatments like anodizing can be applied.

What is the difference between anodized and powder-coated aluminum profiles?

Anodized profiles have a natural oxide coating that enhances corrosion resistance and provides a matte finish, while powder-coated profiles are covered with a layer of paint that can be customized in various colors and textures.

How to stop aluminum profiles from oxidizing?

To stop aluminum profiles from oxidizing, you can apply a protective coating such as anodizing or powder coating. Anodizing creates a durable oxide layer that enhances corrosion resistance, while powder coating adds a colored, protective layer. Regular cleaning with mild detergents can also help maintain the profile's appearance and prevent oxidation. Additionally, keeping aluminum profiles away from harsh chemicals and extreme environmental conditions will further reduce the risk of oxidation.
