Column casings/encasements are a widely used decorative feature in contemporary architecture. They are used for concealing all kinds of unsightly support structures, including those made from concrete and steel.

There are many different kinds of materials that are used for column casings; however aluminium is the most popular choice for such applications.

Aluminium’s inherent advantages are widely recognised by interior architects and designers. Among aluminium’s outstanding qualities are its cost effectiveness, corrosion resistance, durability, flexibility, lightness and sustainability through recycling.

Since Introducing column casings to the construction market, some twenty years ago, GA’s 5 Star Fabrication Service has been continually developing simple yet stylish ‘one fix’ packages to suit the most common applications.

Column casings are normally circular, but square and rectangular are additional options. Alternative configurations and jointing methods are also available. Internal fixing brackets and supports including, aluminium angle profile, are custom made for project specific installation.

Adding weight to the case for using aluminium as a cladding material, is the most impressive selection of surface finish and textural combinations that you could ever desire to choose from!

You can explore our diverse range of aluminium patterns and designs @ www.goodingalum.com. This breathtaking stock selection comprises embossed, perforated, pressed and textured sheets. Our 5 Star service team can effortlessly curve and fold the aluminium sheets into various casing configurations, shapes and sizes.

Once you’ve decided on a particular pattern there are a number of different and readily available surface effects to add that finishing touch.

These surface treatments, which only add a few days to the delivery time, include anodising, powder coating and satin brushing. Sometimes the aluminium is used in its mill (untreated) condition for an industrial look.
