Aluminum in construction excels with benefits like durability, lightweight ease of installation, full recyclability, energie-doeltreffendheid, and resistance to weather and corrosion. It offers a modern, customizable appearance. Yet, it has downsides like higher initial costs, the need for extra insulation due to high thermal conductivity, susceptibility to denting, and environmental concerns in production. Careful consideration of these pros and cons is essential for optimal use.
