Reynolds Aluminum improves Plant Appearance, Lowers installation and Maintenance Costs You can build low maintenance and lasting good looks right into a plant or equipment —by using strong, lightweight, rustfree aluminum in structural and building applications. Aluminum resists corrosion due t o weather and gaseous atmospheres, so i t needs little o r no attention in a processing or refining plant installation. I t can't rust ever, and it stays strong and new-looking, even in dBmp and corrosive places. And maintenance costs aren't the only costs that can be lower, when you build with. âiumtiiîiJLû. i^jLUiuiuUin is frhi rosion-resistant metal, and its light weight (3s the weigiit of steel) can speed installation, cut building labor. Thus, a catwalk using Reynolds Aluminum treadplate is not only maintenance-free —it often can be put u p faster, at less cost than any otlier corrosion-resistant structureRoof ventilators made with aluminum resist corrosion and won't rust—and, because of alummum's heat reflectivity, are often more efficient. Aluminum chain link fencing never needs painting for protection, seldom needs maintenance of any kind. Cost-cutting Reynolds Aluminum is finding its way into more and more applications in chemical and petroleum processing, not only in building and structural uses, but in piping, jacketing:, heat exchangers, and other process equipment. Before you plan your next installation, check all the costs, and learn how aluminum can save for you.

Upkeep o n this stairway and conveyor is just about zero; aluminum stays bright and new looking, and it's non-sparking.
