Ready-to-Supply Aluminium Stock for Your Project Needs 

When selecting an aluminium supplier, it's worth considering more than just price. Stock availability, product range, delivery capability and access to the grades you need can all make a difference to your project.

Working with an established stockholder also makes it easier to source aluminium products consistently as your requirements change.

The right aluminium grade depends on how the material will be used. Factors such as corrosion resistance, strength, formability and surface finish all influence material selection. For example, 1050 is often chosen for general fabrication, 5005 AQ for architectural applications, 5083 for marine environments and 6082 where greater strength is required.

Aluminium sheets are available in a variety of standard sizes and thicknesses, depending on the grade and intended application.

At ASD, our stock includes thicknesses from 0.5mm to 6mm, in standard sheet sizes across selected grades: 2m x 1m, 2.5m x 1.25m, 3m x 1.25m, 3m x 1.5m, 3m x 2m, 4m x 1.5m, 4m x 2m

Anodised aluminium is widely used outdoors due to its enhanced corrosion resistance, durability and low maintenance requirements. The anodising process creates a protective oxide layer that improves surface hardness and helps the material withstand weather exposure, UV light and general wear. It also offers a clean, consistent finish, making it suitable for architectural, structural and decorative applications where both performance and appearance are important.
