Aluminium Sheet
What is Aluminium Sheet?
Aluminium Sheets are flat-rolled aluminium products with uniform thickness and width, used widely in structural, decorative, and fabrication applications. Lightweight yet strong, aluminium sheets offer excellent workability, surface finish, and corrosion resistance. These sheets are available in multiple grades and tempers, including 1050, 5052, and 6061.
Asiad Steel Industries is a leading supplier of aluminium sheets in mill finish, brushed, anodized, and coated variants, serving clients across construction, transport, and general engineering sectors.
