Aluminium bespoke facades
We develop and extrude customised aluminium facade profiles to provide a technical response to the constructive needs
of contemporary architecture. Create with us customised envelopes with virtually no limits.
Aluminium profiles for bespoke facades
Our commitment to technological and industrial development has made us a world leader in the manufacture of large, technically complex aluminium profiles.
Each singular facade has unique and specific requirements, and Exlabesa has the capacity to adapt to the needs of the project and offer customised solutions with infinite technical and aesthetic possibilities, always complying with all regulatory standards.
Macroextrusion

Main advantages of the use of aluminium profiles for facades
Aluminium is a widely recognised material used in the construction of singular facades due to its numerous advantages. A unique combination of physical and aesthetic properties makes it the ideal choice for avant-garde architectural projects.
- Lightweight. Aluminium is lightweight compared to other materials, easy to handle, install and transport.
- Durability. Durable and tough material, able to withstand extreme weather conditions while maintaining structural integrity and requiring little maintenance.
- Aesthetics. It allows for a wide variety of shapes and designs, providing flexibility in creating unique and customised enclosures.
- Circularity. Aluminium is a highly recyclable material, making it a sustainable and environmentally friendly option.

Circular building
Sustainable solutions for bespoke facades
We are committed to the transition towards a circular and sustainable building model. We have the highest capacities in the market to manufacture recycled aluminium billet, which we incorporate into our enclosure systems. We also provide verified information on the environmental impact of our products throughout their life cycle.
- Transparency. We guarantee traceability throughout the manufacturing process, from our recycled aluminium billet to extruded profiles. Our main products have Environmental Product Declarations (DAP/EPD).
- RE-local 100 recycled aluminium. We offer 100% post-consumer recycled aluminium profiles, certified by Bureau Veritas, with which it is possible to drastically reduce the carbon footprint of any building project.
