Resistance to heavy traffic – aluminum vs PVC


In a continuously developing society, the choice of the right construction materials becomes fundamental, especially in the case of high-traffic commercial and residential projects. compare durability of aluminium AND PVC it is a topic of great interest, considering that both materials are frequently used in the installation of expansion profiles. Aluminum, with its superior properties, proves to be a more advantageous choice under conditions of intensive use.

The durability of aluminum is significantly superior to that of PVC. Aluminum does not warp under pressure or lose its shape over time, making it ideal for high-traffic areas. In contrast, PVC can suffer deformation and damage, especially under conditions of frequent use. Our experience at RATGROUP SRL, where we carried out work for clients such as Mercedes Benz car dealership Monaco AND Passau County Hospitalshowed us that aluminum profiles resist wear and impacts much better.

Another important aspect is wear resistance. Aluminum has a remarkable ability to resist scratches and impacts, making it ideal for use in high-traffic areas. For example, in a recent project for a residential complex in Bihor, we used specialized branded machines Wolf AND Janser to guarantee a perfect finish of the aluminum expansion profiles. This equipment allows us to obtain exceptional results that satisfy the requests of the most demanding customers.

In addition to durability, thermal properties and the insulating properties of aluminum are superior to those of PVC. Aluminum has lower thermal conductivity, which helps maintain a constant temperature inside buildings. This is an essential feature for new homes where energy efficiency is a priority. In addition, the use of high-quality adhesives, such as LET IT GO AND Wakolguarantees optimal sealing of the profiles, thus increasing their thermal performance.

Aesthetics and the versatility of the aluminum design are other aspects that make it preferred in commercial projects. Aluminum can be worked into various shapes and colors, offering unlimited customization possibilities. In a recent project for a residential complex in Austria, we used anodized aluminum profiles which added elegance and modernity to the building. This flexibility in design represents a significant advantage over PVC, which has limitations in terms of aesthetic appearance.

When it comes to long-term costsmaintenance of aluminum is more efficient than PVC. While the initial cost of aluminum may be higher, its durability translates into significant savings in the long run. Aluminum profiles do not require frequent painting or maintenance, unlike PVC, which may require more frequent repairs or replacements. This is an important consideration for developers residential complexeswho want to minimize long-term costs.

Climate impact on the durability of materials is another crucial factor. Aluminum is resistant to extreme weather conditions, including humidity and UV rays, making it ideal for outdoor use. In contrast, PVC can become brittle and deteriorate over time due to exposure to the sun. We at RATGROUP SRL noticed these differences during the work carried out for Audi dealerships, where we used aluminum profiles to ensure maximum durability.

The process of installation of aluminum expansion profiles it is one that requires precision and expertise. We use professional branded sanding equipment Columbuswhich allow us to obtain perfect edges and guarantee correct installation. Our Opel Vivaro mobile workshop also allows us to be on site quickly, ensuring work is completed efficiently and to a high standard.

Case studies from our portfolio demonstrate the effectiveness of aluminum expansion profiles. For example, in a recent hospital project in Austria, we implemented innovative solutions that significantly improved the structural performance of the building. Customer feedback has been extremely positive, highlighting the durability and aesthetic appeal of our work.

Sustainability of aluminium as a recyclable material is another important aspect. Aluminum can be recycled almost infinitely without losing its original properties, making it an environmentally friendly choice. This is an essential consideration for customers who want to help protect the environment by choosing sustainable materials.

Modern technologies used in aluminum processing have made significant progress in recent years. We at RATGROUP SRL pride ourselves on using the latest equipment and techniques to ensure the superior quality of our work. This allows us to quickly adapt to market demands and offer innovative solutions to our customers.

This is clear proof that choosing the right materials can significantly influence the success of a project.

Norms and quality standards for expansion profiles are essential to ensure optimal performance. We at RATGROUP SRL comply with all current regulations and ensure that every work carried out meets the most stringent quality requirements.

Comparing the weight and handling of aluminum versus PVC is another important consideration. Aluminum is lighter than PVC, which makes it easier to transport and handle on site. This results in a faster and more efficient assembly process.

Recent innovations in the field of aluminum expansion profiles have led to the development of increasingly efficient solutions suited to customer needs. We at RATGROUP SRL are always aware of the latest trends and technologies in the industry, which allows us to offer the best solutions for our projects.
