E-MAX sells aluminium profiles and billets in various alloys. E-MAX billets and profiles are produced with a maximum input of recycled aluminium. For example, 6060 and 6063 alloys are 80% recycled aluminium. For the 6005 and 6061 alloys, the percentage is a phenomenal 97%. All the alloys are naturally also compliant with the European EN 486 and EN 573 standards and every alloy can be supplied in all the standard diameters.
Available alloys:
- X-ECO.22 / EN AW 6060
- X-ECO.25 / EN AW 6063
- X-ECO.27 / EN AW 6005
- X-ECO.29 / EN AW 6061

Scientific research into the quality of circular aluminium
For over a decade the company has conducted scientific research into the quality of circular aluminium, in collaboration with the Vrije Universiteit Brussel. The results of this research underscore the excellent performance of X-ECO premium circular aluminium, specifically:
- A smooth, matt surface structure after etching. Given the right alloy composition and process parameters, a smooth, matt surface structure can be achieved.
- Little colour variation after anodization. Good control over the etching process prevents colour differences.
- Good resistance against filiform corrosion after powder coating. Good control over process parameters, coupled with the use of high-quality raw materials, leads to good resistance to filiform corrosion.
We have condensed all of this information into a convenient summary. See the result and the effect on X-ECO premium circular aluminium at a glance.
