The material of opportunities
More and more companies in the wind industry are becoming aware of the benefits
of using aluminium.
The combination of strength, ductility, elasticity, corrosion resistance and low weight is hard to beat. However, the main attraction is the ability to integrate functions into the profile. The lightness of aluminium also makes
handling easier along the whole production chain. And it doesn’t end there – the aluminium profiles are highly durable, practically maintenance-free and can be finished in numerous ways, and they are 100% recyclable.
Exploit the opportunities to the full with Sapa
The wind power industry is constantly looking for ways to cut production costs and reduce weight. Aluminium profiles can help extend the lifetime and performance of a number of applications, while lowering your maintenance costs. By entering into a partnership with Sapa, you can exploit the opportunities to the full.
Global leader in aluminium profiles
Sapa is the global leader in aluminium profiles. We provide everything from standard profiles to advanced turnkey solutions to many industries on a global scale – transport, engineering, construction and renewable energy.
Excellent material qualities
The unique properties of aluminium open up new opportunities for wind turbine generator (WTG) suppliers, a well as for sub-suppliers and manufacturers of components. Its corrosion resistance extends the lifetime of the component and minimises life-cycle maintenance costs. Its superb malleability makes it possible to manufacture ready-made solutions, reducing the need for welding or other fabrication processes.
A natural part of sustainable wind power solutions
Like the wind itself, aluminium is part of the response to climate change since it can be recycled again and again without losing any value or properties. It therefore represents high material value at the end of a long product service life.
