Blackburns Aluminium products

Blackburns is one of the countries leading nationwide distributors of Aluminium, Stainless Steel and other semi-finished non-ferrous products. Its name is synonymous with quality and high service levels throughout the architectural market sector, with a reputation for innovative products and architectural metal designs.

The successful growth of pre-anodised aluminium in the architectural field is a clear indication of the unique characteristics, which make this material the natural ally of the designer.

The capability to combine maximum adaptability with aesthetic impact makes pre-anodised aluminium products such as Decorbrite the ideal choice for decorative panelling and cladding, while low density allows the development of structures that are particularly light but at the same time strong.

Stockholders provide the ability for manufacturers to obtain materials, such as aluminium and stainless steel, at a competitive price, by importing from the most competitive parts of the world and delivering the material they require, when they need it, without the need to tie up resource and capital...'
