Hulamin’s rolled and extruded products are used in a variety of industries worldwide. Aluminium is a truly modern material due to its strength-to-weight ratio, recyclability, corrosion resistance, durability, ductility, formability and conductivity. With Hulamin’s customers in so many countries, producing so many products, most of us will have used, seen or touched Hulamin’s products without even knowing it! Applications for aluminium are truly only limited by one’s imagination!
Hulamin focuses on customers in a specific range of industries.
 Packaging
|
|
Aluminium in packaging materials offers manufacturers of packaging products a wide range of benefits such as ductility, strength, recyclability and corrosion resistance. It also offers impermeability to light, ultra-violet rays, water vapour, oils and fats, oxygen and micro-organisms.
Hulamin is active in the packaging market with its sales of foil, can stock and closure sheet.

| Automotive |
| Recent trend for more accessories and safety equipment has tended to make vehicles heavier. Pressure to reduce weight in vehicles is not only based on the need to improve fuel consumption and emissions, but also on the need to meet consumer demands. Hulamin is very active in supplying and developing rolled materials for component manufacturers in South Africa and around the world with special emphasis on complex clad products required for the rapidly developing heat exchanger market. |
| Building & Construction |
| Bare and coated aluminium building products produced in Hulamin’s Pietermaritzburg plant have been used in iconic buildings around the world. From the Olympic Velodrome in Athens, the Southern Cross (formerly Spencer Street) Station in Melbourne to the Beijing Opera House, architects worldwide using Hulamin’s building products optimise its corrosion resistance, colour durability, strength recyclability and thermal performance |
| Road transport |
| Whether used for the manufacture of trucks, trailers or tippers, aluminium reduces weight and brings substantial savings. Hulamin’s sheet, plate and extrusions are widely used in road transport, offering designers a modern solution to fuel efficiency, payload productivity, durability and recyclability. |
| Engineering |
| Aluminium is a light metal - two thirds lighter than steel, an excellent conductor of heat and electricity and offers high strength as well as high ductility. It has remarkable corrosion and chemical resistance and is economically recycled. Whether as used sheet, plate, foil, or extruded sections, Hulamin’s products are popular with designers and engineers around the world in cookware, consumer durables, die making, machinery manufacture, electrical busbars, transformers, treaded products both bright and standard, to name but a few. |
