From Concept to Completion
Discover the Different Alumitex Materials
Aluminum Plate is a high strength, low weight aluminum alloy sheet that is corrosion-resistant and has excellent formability.
Climate Defiant
The Alumitex system is resistant to expansion and contraction in both high temperature and freezing conditions, making it "Climate Defiant."
UV Resistant
The Alumitex® panels are UV resistant, meaning their color is resistant to fading from exposure to the sun or extreme temperatures.
Weatherproof
Weatherproof panels, when combined with a patented pressure-equalized rainscreen system, create the ultimate weather barrier.
