DESIGN DEVELOPMENT
At Sapa, we ask the following types of question before and during the product styling :
- What is the profile used for?
- Can the customer’s production line be simplified?
- Can the end product be made even more competitive?
- Can the total cost for the product be reduced?
By asking questions like these, we can work closely with our customers to find answers based on our many years of experience.
SAPA PROFILE ACADEMY
As the world leader in aluminium profiles, Sapa possesses unrivalled expertise in the application of aluminium profiles.
In order to share this knowledge with our customers and provide them with the best possible support, Sapa holds a Profile Academy every year.
This two-day event brings together designers, builders and product developers and provides opportunity to learn more about intelligent design using aluminium. Over the years, Sapa has acquired considerable experience in the use of aluminium profiles.
- Can several functions be combined in a single profile?
- Can weight be reduced by using the material only where it is actually needed?
- Can small modifications lead to lower production costs?
- Can another alloy increase strength, ductility or surface quality?
These are only some of the questions that Sapa can answer.
The objective of the Profile Academy event is to share experience and deliver high-quality end products.
