5 Advantages of Anodized Aluminium Profile
As we all know, aluminium profiles are widely used in various industrial sector due to their strength, durability and versatility.
Additionally, aluminium profiles are a great alternative to more complex systems where, for example, parts need to be welded together.
What is Anodized Aluminium Profile?
Anodizing an aluminium profile consists of subjecting it to an electrochemical process in which an oxide layer is created on the surface of the aluminium.
Precise control of the conditions during the process, such as temperature, electric current and element composition, is crucial to ensure the desired results.
The final outcome gives the aluminium profile advantageous properties, which is why every profile REIMAN offers is anodized.
5 Advantages of Anodized Aluminium Profile:
Protection
Anodized profiles have a more robust surface that is resistant to corrosion due to the oxide layer on their surface. They are suitable for hostile environments exposed to adverse weather conditions. In addition, it provides an insulating cover against electrical currents and resistance to dirt, which makes anodised aluminium profiles compliant with more stringent criteria in certain industrial sectors.
Low Maintenance
Due to their corrosion resistance and improved durability, anodised aluminium profiles require less intervention and maintenance throughout their life cycle, resulting in lower operating costs.
Hardness
Aluminium profiles that undergo the anodization process result in a substantial improvement in the surface hardness of the aluminium.
Consequently, greater resistance to scratches and wear from friction or abrasion is provided, prolonging its durability.
Colour Options and Finishes
Anodization allows for a variety of finishes and colour options such as satin, brushed, or polished surfaces enabling more effective integration in various industrial contexts.
At REIMAN, we offer aluminium profiles in their original colour and black, with the possibility of anodizing in various shades, customized according to customer requests, based on the desired quantities.

Long-term Stability
The oxide layer acts as a protective barrier against the harmful effects of UV radiation. This is particularly important in outdoor applications, where exposure to the elements can cause gradual changes in the profile, such as fading of its colour.
In summary, REIMAN reaffirms its commitment to providing superior-quality anodized aluminium profiles. In addition to the highlighted advantages, there are many others that emphasize the excellence of the profile and REIMAN’S commitment to offering long-lasting profiles that combine quality with innovation.
