IBERFOIL aluminium, the best bet

/in /von

The aluminium is one of the most noble raw materials that exist. It is used in a daily way and, probably, it is not known the great versatility of its uses, for example, we find it in the streets, buildings, transport, offices, houses, conservation of food products, packages…

The properties it inherently possesses, compared with other materials, makes it a safe bet both in the present and in the future. It is lightweight, malleable, mouldable, and highly resistant to high temperatures, humidity and corrosion. It is 100% recycled and regardless of the number of times it is reused, it does not lose any of its properties during the process. This means that its circular economy is infinite.

IBERFOIL bets for the aluminium, the applications of its coils in the different sectors are:

  • Food sector: They are used to create containers, food lids, flexible packaging, pet food, tetra brik
    They protect the food from external agents by keeping it intact. Aluminium does not produce odours or flavours, it keeps cold or heat and is light-resistant, keeping food in perfect condition for longer, allowing its expiry date to be longer.
  • Pharmaceutical and cosmetic sector: with the coils it’s possible to manufacture general packaging for medicines such as blister packs, envelopes for medicines (paracetamol ) caps with a high breaking load (cold form), protective film for creams or make-up.
  • Industrial sector and air conditioning: IBERFOIL coils ensure thermal resistance, reflecting up to 95% of radiant heat, which makes them a perfect insulation material for industrial use. Likewise, thanks to the malleability and adaptation of aluminium, they are also used in the manufacture of air conditioning equipment.
  • They are suitable for the closure of drinks such as shakes or wine bottles, are waterproof and protect against spillage thanks to their heat-sealing properties.

HONEYCOMB FOR FLOATING ROOFS

/in /von

THE BEST SOLUTION FOR THE OIL INDUSTRY WITH aluNID®

The floating roofs used in the oil industry are special because they require very large dimensions and they move (up or down) depending on the volume of oil stored in order to avoid explosions, and the correct release of gases, for this, it is necessary that the materials of the floating ceilings are light, hard and resistant.

The roofs made with honeycomb panels are especially indicated for those cases in which due to meteorological, geographical or chemical factors they are exposed to: high percentages of humidity, corrosion or conditions that require materials with very specific characteristics in resistance and durability such and as it happens in the oil industry.

The aluNID® Honeycomb alloy makes the panels more resistant to both moisture and corrosion. Also, thanks to its structure and modular construction, which in addition to being light, it is highly durable and resistant, make the honeycomb the perfect bet in the installation of floating ceilings.

They are ideal for storing fluids such as petroleum, refined products, chemicals, or natural gas products thanks to their non-combustibility and simplicity of assembly.

Always meeting the highest requirements and demands in the sector, aluNID® offers the creation of innovative ceiling systems, perfect to offer you the highest quality for your industrial projects.

aluNID®, by promoting affordable energy (SDG7), improves the security of oil and derivatives storage tanks day by day.

IBERFOIL, specialist manufacturer of aluminium for pharmacy and food

/in /von

The aluminium sector includes countless uses, among which, for its daily use, those related to the pharmacy and food sector stand out.

The properties that make this raw material the best option for its use in both the pharmaceutical and food industries are that thanks to its high resistance to high temperatures, humidity and corrosion, it allows the maintenance of medicines in perfect condition, preserving them from any external agent that could interfere with the chemical composition of the drug.

Similarly, they are ideal for preserving food, thanks to their resistance to light, cold and heat. Aluminium containers are the ones that ensure the longest expiry date for preserved food. On the other hand, it is a raw material that does not emit odors or chemicals to the food, so it does not interfere with the flavor of the final product.

On the other hand, aluminium is one of the few raw materials in nature that can be recycled infinitely without losing any of its properties during the process. This makes aluminum a sure bet for success, its circular economy places it at the top of profitability and efficiency.
