Transform your Projects with Aludecor's Pre-Coated Aluminium Coils
Aludecor is a leading manufacturer of Coated Aluminium Coils situated at Haridwar – Uttarakhand, India. Our Coil Coating lines produce the best quality Pre-coated Aluminium Coils, in complete accordance with global industry quality standards.
In order to cater varied demands of clients, these superior quality products can also be also customised in various sizes and other related specifications.
Aludecor’s Pre-coated Aluminium Coils are produced by adding paint coatings to mill finish aluminium coils on a continuous basis with a process called ‘Coil Coating’. Coil coating is a highly efficient means of coating aluminium before the fabrication of finished components, providing a high-quality, uniform and reproducible surface finish.
Aludecor has performed a total of 30 tests to analyse the quality of Pre-Coated Aluminium Coils. Our regular quality tests ensure compliance with AAMA, ECCA, ASTM, ISO, EN, and DIN standards.
Why are Pre-Coated Aluminium Coils special ?
Pre-Coated Aluminium Coils are in demand due to their advanced features and the benefits that they provides, like:
- Durability: Coated aluminium coil is highly durable and can withstand harsh weather conditions, such as rain, snow, and UV rays. It is resistant to corrosion, fading, and chipping, ensuring that the exterior cladding remains intact for a long time.
- Lightweight: Coated aluminium coil is lightweight compared to other cladding materials, such as steel or concrete. This makes it seamless to handle and install, reducing labour costs and time.
- Versatility: Coated aluminium coil is available in a wide range of colours, finishes, and patterns, allowing for endless design possibilities. It can be customised to match any architectural style or aesthetic preference.
- Low maintenance: Coated aluminium coil requires minimal maintenance. It does not need to be painted or stained regularly, saving time and money on upkeep. It can be easily cleaned with soap and water, making it an ideal choice for busy homeowners or commercial buildings.
- Energy efficiency: Coated aluminium coil has excellent thermal properties, helping to insulate the building and reduce energy consumption. It reflects heat away from the structure, keeping it cool in the summer and reducing the need for air conditioning.
- Fire resistance: Coated aluminium coil is fire-resistant, making it a safe choice for exterior cladding. It does not contribute to the spread of flames and can help protect the building from fire damage.
- Eco-friendly: Coated aluminium coil is a sustainable choice for exterior cladding. It is made from recycled materials and is fully recyclable at the end of its lifespan. It also has a low carbon footprint compared to other cladding materials.
Benefits with Aludecor’s Pre-Painted Aluminium Coils
- Vivid Color Palette: With Aludecor, unlock a spectrum of colours to bring your architectural vision to life. Colour-coating aluminium coils enhances their properties, including resistance to corrosion, solvents, UV rays, and severe weather conditions. Additionally, they come with a warranty of 10 to 15 years, ensuring lasting quality and durability.
- Cost-effective: Although the initial cost of coated aluminium coil may be higher than some other cladding materials, it offers long-term cost savings. Its durability and low maintenance requirements reduce the need for repairs or replacements, saving money in the long run. Additionally, the seamless installation process and its energy efficiency can lead to lower energy bills over time.
- Unmatched Flatness and Gloss Retention: Aludecor’s state-of-the-art manufacturing facility produces colour-coated aluminium coils that have unmatched flatness, making them ideal for various applications.
Aludecor's top-of-the-line coating system enhances the colour properties. Even after years of use, the colour stability remains impressive.
- Anti-microbial coating & Anti-insect coating: Antimicrobial coatings for pre-painted aluminium coils are designed to inhibit the growth of bacteria, mould, fungi, and other microbes. These coatings are particularly beneficial in HVAC systems, where they can help improve indoor air quality and prevent the spread of contaminants.
For anti-insect coatings, the technology involves coatings that repel insects and prevent them from adhering to surfaces. These coatings can be especially useful in outdoor or industrial applications.
In both cases, these specialised coatings enhance the functionality and longevity of the aluminium coils by providing additional protective properties.
