Aluminium strip ceilings have won popularity because of their overwhelming advantages over other materials, which include light weight, long service life, flexible decorative effect, adaptable installation and low cost. As known to all, the density of aluminum is only 2.7, less than one third of copper and about one third of iron. Copper and iron serve as top two metals that are most widely applied in manufacturing industry. In comparison with aluminum, heavier weight is a deadly weakness of both. Therefore, it’s not surprising for them to be replaced by aluminum in various applications, among which are aluminium strip ceilings. As suspended items, lighter ceilings are safer. However, some people have doubts about service life of aluminum ceilings, especially when they are compared to steel ceilings. Practice has shown that well-treated aluminum sheets have similar hardness and corrosion resistance to steel sheets. They are water-proof and fire-proof, needing little maintenance under normal state. Even though they are not so strong as steel, hardness is not the first requirement about ceilings which serve as decorative rather than supporting parts of a building. As decorative parts aluminium strip ceilings help interior designers to realize flexible decorative effect. Sizes, colors and grains can be customized in accordance with specific requirements. The aluminum strips are adaptable to cutting, suspension and installation to avoid influence on lighting or ventilating systems. Last but not least, aluminum ceilings costs less than steel ones. Relative manufacturing process has developed so mature that common people can afford to have an aluminum ceiling at low cost.
