WHAT IS ALUMINIUM EXTRUSION?
From the basics of precision cutting, drilling, tapping, and punching to fully finished products, Amana Global offers a full suite of extrusion services.
Leveraging its malleability and strength, aluminium is used in a wide range of applications that require these unique physical characteristics. Created by pushing an alloy through a die, aluminium extrusions are hollow, semi-hollow, or solid shapes that boast high levels of accuracy and quality.
