Lightweight Construction
Made from high-grade aluminium alloys (e.g. EN AW6060 T66), these posts are significantly lighter than steel, making them easier to transport, handle, and install.
Corrosion Resistance
Aluminium naturally forms a protective oxide layer, making it highly resistant to rust—even in coastal or high-moisture environments.
Finish Flexibility
Available in anodised, powder-coated, or painted finishes. Powder coating in RAL colours (black, grey, white, or wood-effect) offers a premium look and long-lasting surface protection.
Size Variety
Offered in round profiles (50mm to 127mm diameter) and square profiles (50mm to 150mm), with lengths up to 6000mm.
Recyclability
Aluminium is 100% recyclable without loss of quality, supporting sustainable infrastructure development.
Benefits
Ease of Installation
Their low weight reduces labour costs and simplifies installation, especially in hard-to-access areas.
Visual Appeal
Sleek finishes and colour options make them ideal for business parks, campuses, hospitality venues, and urban wayfinding.
Durability
With a design life exceeding 50 years, aluminium posts offer long-term reliability with minimal maintenance.
Sustainability
Fully recyclable and often manufactured with low environmental impact, aluminium posts align with green building standards.
Versatility
Suitable for a wide range of applications—from directional signage and school zones to decorative and branded installations.
