Aluminum profiles can be combined with a variety of materials to enhance their functionality and durability. Common materials include steel for added strength, plastics for lightweight components, and various types of glass for transparency and aesthetics. They can also be paired with rubber or silicone seals for weatherproofing, and wood for a warmer, more natural aesthetic. Additionally, aluminum profiles are often used with other metals such as copper or brass for electrical conductivity or corrosion resistance. The choice of material depends on the specific application, desired properties, and design requirements.
