Capping strips
By selecting aluminium as an engineering material, significant weight savings can be achieved.
In suspended ceilings made from mineral fiber panels, capping strip enhances the appearance of the ceiling support structure. This narrow, extremely thin-gauge coated strip is used to clad the visible surfaces of the T-shaped construction rails.
Weight savings
By selecting aluminium as an engineering material, significant weight savings can be achieved. Hydro has supplied high-strength alloys to the construction market for years and utilizes a coating system which ensures a perfect surface finish and optimum paint adhesion, even at the tight bend radii on the edges.
