When you’re designing a building that needs to stand out both structurally and visually, bigger, stronger, and more adaptable than conventional cladding, ARAMAX® is designed to handle the demands of commercial, educational, and industrial projects while giving them a bold, architectural edge.
With its striking V-shaped profile and ability to span up to 20 metres without additional supports, ARAMAX® isn’t just a pretty face. Whether you’re tackling long spans, irregular geometries, or even tricky environmental conditions, ARAMAX® has the strength and flexibility to deliver.
Construction isn’t Always Easy
Every project comes with its own set of challenges; tight timelines, complex geometries, or the need to keep costs under control without sacrificing quality. Add unpredictable weather, long spans, or irregular shapes, and you can see why choosing the right materials can make or break a design.
Traditional cladding and roofing systems often fall short when faced with these demands. Secondary structures like purlins and girts add time, cost, and complexity, while materials that can’t handle extreme conditions or complex designs limit creativity. Architects and specifiers need a material that adapts to their vision while standing up to Australia’s tough environment.
Why Choose ARAMAX®?
What sets ARAMAX® apart from standard roofing and cladding systems is its ability to combine aesthetics with serious practicality:
- Massive spans: With unsupported spans of up to 20 metres, ARAMAX® reduces the need for purlins and girts, streamlining construction and cutting costs.
- Cost-efficient design: By removing secondary structures, ARAMAX® can reduce cladding and structural steel costs by up to 30%.
- Design flexibility: It handles irregular rooflines and allows cantilever overhangs of up to 5 metres, giving you freedom to think beyond conventional shapes.
- Customisable aesthetics: Available in perforated aluminium, ARAMAX® helps create visually striking façades, screens, and shading solutions that are practical and unique.
Roofing and Walling: All-in-One
If your project needs both roofing and walling, ARAMAX® delivers. Its seamless transition between the two makes it a practical, cohesive solution for buildings that need to look good and work hard.
ARAMAX® was used at St Bede’s Catholic School for both roofing and perforated screening. The roofing provided the structural support needed for large spans, while the screening controlled harsh sunlight, allowing airflow and natural light to brighten the interior.
You can see the same versatility at the Sutherland Performing Arts Centre, where ARAMAX® works double duty as sleek wall cladding and a sturdy roofing solution.
On-Site Rollforming: A Time and Life Saver
Tight deadlines are a fact of life in construction, and ARAMAX® is built to help you meet them. For projects with long spans or intricate designs, ARAMAX® can be rollformed directly on-site.
This means no dealing with the challenges of transporting oversized panels, which can be an issue with conventional cladding. Instead, ARAMAX® is manufactured on location to the exact lengths you need. This both reduces the risk of damage during transit and also speeds up installation, making it an easy choice for large-scale builds where efficiency is key.
Built for Australia - and Made in it, too
Australia’s climate throws everything at construction projects: searing inland heat, heavy rainfall, and the corrosive effects of coastal air.
ARAMAX® is designed to handle it all. Designed and manufactured locally, it’s available in COLORBOND® steel and aluminium finishes that are made for durability in even the toughest conditions.
Need something specialised? It can also be manufactured in perforated aluminium, giving architects and specifiers even more creative freedom. These perforations can provide shading to reduce heat gain, promote natural ventilation, or enhance acoustic performance in noise-sensitive environments.
Whether you’re designing for a remote outback project or an urban high-rise, ARAMAX® can make it happen without breaking a sweat.
