History

Garfield Aluminium's main strength used to be the supply of aluminum coils to insulation businesses in both the petrochemical and agricultural industries. The founders of Garfield Aluminium discovered a gap in the market for the supply of aluminum coils in smaller quantities, as the manufacturers were only prepared to supply minimum roller units of rolls. Later, the company tapped into other market segments for aluminum semi-finished products.

 

Currently, Garfield Aluminium supplies rolled and extruded products to both the domestic and international markets. Our knowledge and experience now ranges from the construction of machines, facades and silos to applications for construction, sign systems and insulation.

 

Our aluminum semi-finished products:

  • are unmachined or customised;
  • are available in large or small quantities;
  • are available from stock or ex works.

 

These are some of the most important dates in the company's history.
