Solutions built on sustainability

All of our building systems use aluminium as their core material, which offers an inherent strength necessary for building projects. Aluminium is known for being lightweight, durable, and low maintenance, while also aiding the high performance of our systems due to its immunity to UV, low conductivity, and fire resistance. 

Aluminium is one of the most sustainable construction materials available, reducing carbon emissions and contributing to the lifecycle costing of a building. It can be endlessly recycled making it far more environmentally friendly than alterative materials such as PVCu. In fact, up to 90% of all aluminium used in construction is recycled, using 95% less energy to manufacture than its primary production - with no deterioration in quality. 


Aluminium does not age like other organic materials and needs no protection from ultra-violet light. Its overall life-cycle is more environmentally friendly due to the minimum energy required in maintenance and the well-established, proven design life of aluminium assures that it will provide a long term solution year on year with the guarantee of 100% recyclability at the end of a building's life.

Our unrivalled Expertise in the aluminium market

Aluminium can play a critical role in design and specification as a truly sustainable material that improves the efficiency of building processes while maximising the lifespan of buildings. When you consider both the core and the façade of our buildings, it isn’t an exaggeration to say that aluminium has literally built our cities in the latter half of the 20th century. AluK is proud to help architects shape that world using our innovative and sustainable aluminium façade systems.
