About FETRA
Fetra Aluminium Profiltechnik GmbH is a supplier specialised in custom aluminium profiles, active in the profile business since 1993 and established as a GmbH in 2002. The company supplies special aluminium profiles made to drawing, from toolmaking and sample approval (optionally with a FAI/EMPB report) through extrusion to series delivery as bars, fixed lengths or ready-to-install parts. The process chain covers profile development and feasibility checks, machining by sawing, drilling, milling, punching and CNC, as well as surface finishing by anodising and powder coating. In addition, the company offers steel parts made to drawing, aluminium die casting where extruded profiles reach their geometric limits, and EPDM and sealing profiles matched to the aluminium profile. Typical alloys are EN AW-6060, EN AW-6063, EN AW-6005A and EN AW-6082; tolerances are applied per EN 12020-2 and EN 755-9. Customers are industrial companies in the machinery and plant engineering, façade and construction, solar and photovoltaics, furniture and lighting, and automotive and transport sectors. Locations are in Langenfeld (headquarters) and Solingen.

Materials and Processes
EN AW-6060
Aluminium alloy for extruded profiles with good surface properties, e.g. for decorative and functional profiles.
EN AW-6063
Versatile extrusion alloy, among other things for profiles with anodised or powder-coated finishes.
EN AW-6005A
Higher-strength extrusion alloy for more highly stressed functional profiles.
EN AW-6082
High-strength aluminium alloy for mechanically loaded components.
Steel
Material for parts made to drawing when aluminium is not suitable for the application.
EPDM
Elastomer for sealing and profile components, matched to the aluminium profile.
Extrusion
Manufacturing process for open and closed special aluminium profiles made to drawing.
Aluminium die casting
Process for cast parts where an extruded profile reaches its geometric limit.
