Aluminum profiles are products born from aluminum alloys that are transformed into shaped objects through the extrusion process. Aluminum's unique combination of physical characteristics mostly depends on this process. Aluminum extrusions are used in several fields because this metal is: Strong and stable.
An aluminum profile or extrusion, also called "aluminum frame" is made from the extrusion process, and comes in various textures, colors and brightness.
To learn more about what an aluminum profile is and the kinds of extrusions offered by Profall, go on reading. In this page you will find the answer to the most common questions such as:
Standard profiles
Special extrusions
Custom profiles

Aluminum profiles are products born from aluminum alloys that are transformed into shaped objects through the extrusion process. Aluminum's unique combination of physical characteristics mostly depends on this process.
Aluminum extrusions are used in several fields because this metal is:
Therefore, aluminum is employed in a growing number of manufacturing needs, including the production of components for international space stations or in nuclear power plants.

Special profiles are complex shapes mostly used in the construction and furniture sector, in the automotive field and in the transport industry. We can mention, for instance, aluminum borders with screw attachments, drainers and water deflectors, glazing extrusions, picture frames, trim profiles for vehicles, corner elements with special sections, aluminum handles and handrails are just some of the special profiles we manufacture every day.
Surface treatments
The followings are the most common surface treatments of our aluminum profiles, to allow our customers satisfaction for any constructive necessity.
Aluminum profile types can vary greatly, depending on the application. Profiles or cross-sections can come in a wide variety of thicknesses, which is also critical in providing form or function to a particular structure. Manufacturers have greatly enjoyed the use of aluminum material in profile production mainly due to its many properties. It's malleable, lightweight, and highly versatile. It also provides a lower-cost option in adding durability and foundation to a given structure.
The most common type of aluminium profile is extruded aluminium profile. This type of profile is created by pushing heated metal through an opening called a die, which creates the desired shape. Extruded aluminum profiles come in a wide range of shapes and sizes, making them ideal for many applications. The process also reduces scrap loss and allows for more precise tolerances than other methods.
Another popular type of aluminium profile is an anodized aluminium profile. Anodized profiles are finished using an electrochemical process that increases their corrosion resistance and hardness while improving their appearance. This process also makes them easier to clean and maintain since dirt and grime won't adhere as easily to their surfaces. Anodizing also increases the life expectancy of the product by up to three times compared to untreated products, making it an excellent choice for applications where durability is important.
Kinds of aluminum profiles
Now that we have answered the question "What is an aluminum profile?", we can go through the existing kinds of extruded profiles.
In fact, considering that at Profall's we are specialized in the full or partial customization of aluminum extruded profiles, we can say that there exist countless kinds. Yet it is more practical dividing them into two main categories:
Each aluminum extrusion profile is available in a wide range of different sizes and can be made with different aluminum alloys according to its destination.
Standard profiles are those available in our basic catalog, and include fifteen different shapes applied in various fields. In this first group you find aluminum corner profiles, duct and double-duct profiles, square and round tubes and pipes, T-tracks, U channels and Z profiles, flat, round and square bars.
