Usually when we analyze the production of aluminium sheets we also consider the prepainted aluminium sheets that occupy a large area of this market. These products are characterized by a coating that is applied to the surface until it’s completely and uniformly covered. The coating can affect one or both sides of the sheet and can consist of a powder, liquid or PVDF coating. Prepainted sheets represent an excellent combination of high strength, formability and malleability together with excellent corrosion resistance.
