Support Structures
The backbone of your facade cladding.
Alinel profiles mount directly onto the support structure, no clip system required. The result? A cleaner installation process that architects and contractors rely on for its speed, simplicity and precision.
The support structure does more than hold your facade in place. It creates a ventilated cavity that lets condensation escape and keeps insulation dry, improving thermal performance and preventing surface soiling. A facade that works as hard as it looks.
3 reasons to choose aluminium
Aluminium support structures are setting the new standard in facade construction. Here's why.
Fast installation
Consistently straight profiles mean fitters can work with speed and confidence — from first fix to finished facade.
Fire safety
Aluminium is non-combustible (fire class A1) and won't spread fire. A non-negotiable in modern construction.
Built to last
Unlike wood, aluminium doesn't rot, warp or degrade. Less maintenance. Longer lifespan. Better return on investment.
Backforce, our recommended system
For aluminium support structures, Alinel works with Backforce, a sister company specialising in smart, durable facade solutions for builders, architects and engineers. With evolving fire safety regulations pushing aluminium to the forefront, Backforce systems are more relevant now than ever.
