Bright, memorable projects created in recent years with the use of aluminum products are sports facilities, allowing to meet the high requirements and quality, and technology.

The use of aluminum at transport facilities has significantly increased, in which of the modern metro stations aluminum isn’t used. New buildings of airports, Transport Hubs, stations demonstrate a variety of forms and finishes used from aluminum.

The most architectural projects feature translucent structures, such as the combination of aluminum and glass, which have become one of the most popular materials for creating sustainable architecture.
The implementation of projects using aluminum and glass according to the standards of "green" construction takes into account the problems of environmental protection, material resources, and energy consumption.

New direction is the construction of bridges made of aluminum, the first in Russia installed in Nizhny Novgorod. The practice of building aluminum bridges is used in many foreign countries and has good development prospects in our country.
