Kuwait Aluminium Extrusion Co. (KALEXCO), is committed to provide products and services of a quality that meet the initial and continuing needs and expectations of customers in relation to the price paid and to the nature of competitive offering. It is the policy of the company that its products shall meet all specified and implied standards of performance, reliability and quality.

Aluminum’s versatility derives from its unique combination of properties: it is light and has a high strength-to-weight ratio (up to four times higher than steel), as well as superior corrosion resistance, good thermal conductivity and excellent low-temperature performance. A wide range of Aluminium alloys and tempers are available that can be matched to any machining operation, manufacturing process, finishing method or product.

Due to its excellent ductility at elevated temperature, Aluminium is well suited for shaping by the extrusion process - additionally, the extrusion process is very versatile allowing an almost unlimited variety of shapes to be produced. This combination of metal and manufacturing process offers designers a freedom from shape restriction that is unparallel among structural materials.

Aluminium extrusions are used in commercial and domestic buildings for:

• Window & Door frame systems,
• Curtain walls,
• Exterior cladding,
• Balustrades,
• Roofing,
• Awnings,
• Blinds,
• Gutters & Down pipes,
• Fencing,
• Wall panels,
• Partitions,
• Heating & Ventilation,
• Scaffolding,
• Ladders, as well as many architectural applications.

Furthermore, extrusions are also used in transport for airframes, road and rail vehicles and in marine applications. There are a wide range of other applications including electrical appliances, lighting equipment and sporting goods. The term extrusion is usually applied to both the process and the product obtained when a hot cylindrical billet of Aluminium is forced through a shaped die.
