UAE in the last three decades has witnessed a major transformation, from a desert backwater port to a vibrant metropolis having the third-most skyscrapers in the world. With a lot of construction work going on in UAE, aluminium facades and glass work is commonly found in the vast majority of these structures. With a growing trend of skyscrapers in Dubai, many great buildings have been constructed using aluminium and glass. Aluminium being lightweight yet strong, corrosion-resistant, and recyclable is used across many of the world’s great buildings along with glass. Places in UAE like Abu Dhabi, Al Ain, Sharjah are excessively hot, so different types of high-performance and reflective glasses are also used in the construction of buildings to prevent the transfer of heat.
Aluminium has been used in the construction industry from as early as the 1900s but its popularity in the construction industry increased only after the 1920s when its production cost was reduced by 80% due to the electrolysis process. The Empire State Building in New York City, constructed in 1931 was the first building to make significant use of the aluminium in its construction. Fast forward to today, and nearly a quarter of all aluminium produced in the world is used in the construction industry. Aluminium doors and windows are also commonly used in Dubai, Sharjah, and Al Ain across different sectors such as construction, automobiles, telecom, and interior design. However, Aluminium windows and doors are most widely used for the construction of residential and commercial complexes. Today, glass and aluminium are widely used in the construction sector for making products like doors, windows, staircases, glass glazing, railings, false ceilings, the main entrance canopy, and flooring.
