Problem
Construction projects require aluminum extrusions that are strong and durable, but traditional production relies on primary aluminum and generates high CO₂ emissions. Additionally, using recycled scrap often introduces impurities that compromise material performance, limiting its adoption in high‑spec building applications.
Solution
Atomic13 applies advanced shear extrusion technology to 100 % post‑consumer aluminum scrap, effectively removing impurities while preserving material integrity. The process yields high‑strength, durable extrusions that meet rigorous building standards, enabling developers and manufacturers to specify recycled aluminum without sacrificing performance. By converting waste into premium profiles, the company reduces the carbon footprint of the aluminum extrusion supply chain and supports a circular economy for the built environment.
Target Audience
Primary customers are construction developers, architectural firms, and manufacturers of building components who require high‑performance aluminum extrusions with a reduced environmental impact.
