Durability with aesthetic appeal
The EN AW-6060 aluminum alloy (AlMgSi0.5) delivers outstanding surface quality, making it ideal for decorative applications and surface treatments. It also offers excellent corrosion resistance, even under demanding weather conditions. Thanks to its good weldability and formability, EN AW-6060 is highly favored in architecture and metal construction, where complex shapes and long-lasting structures are required.
