In 1904, the world's first aluminum extrusion press was officially put into use at the American Aluminum Company, marking the beginning of the aluminum profile industry. Since then, with the technological advancement of processing technology, there have been more and more types of aluminum profiles and their application fields have become wider and wider. During World War II, aluminum profiles were mainly used in the manufacture of military products. After the end of World War II, post-war reconstruction drove huge demand for aluminum profiles in residential buildings. During the same period, aluminum profiles gradually became popular in the fields of doors, windows, and curtain walls, and the global aluminum profile industry entered a stage of rapid development.
After the 1980s, the rapid development of the world economy has further promoted the application and depth of global aluminum foil in various industries. The advancement of aluminum profile processing technology has made aluminum foil light in weight, high in strength, corrosion-resistant, convenient to transport, easy to process, and easy to use. A series of advantages such as coloring, corrosion resistance, and durable surface are gradually demonstrated in various industry applications. The application scope has entered many fields such as new energy photovoltaics, rail transit, automobile lightweighting, medical environmental protection, electronic home appliances, etc., and its application depth is rapid in various fields. Expanding, the application of aluminum foil in various industries has also developed rapidly.
