The light weight combined with stability makes aluminium boxes particularly suitable for packaging and transport by air freight.

• Aluminium protects itself:
Scratches on the surface fade slowly because aluminium forms a protective oxide layer through contact with oxygen.

From many environmental influences like rain, wind, oxygen, steam, light, UV radiation and more. It is ideal for transporting sensitive goods.

• Aluminium is not magnetic:
This feature makes it suitable for use in the electrical and electronics industry.

Even with massive force application, independent of the temperature, the material aluminium will not break.

• Aluminium is climate-proof:
The material can be used in any climate zone of this planet – whether water, heath, snow or mud effect the aluminium box.

• Aluminium can resist high temperature fluctuations:
Though the material expands in hot weather and shrinks in cold weather, the function of the boxes is not compromised as the changes in dimension are minimal.
