DESCRIPTION OF ACME RAILINGS MATERIALS

 

INDUSTRY STANDARD

This is the type of rail most shops offer with balusters welded directly

to the cap rail (no sub-channel)

 

 

This is OUR RAIL

The balusters are welded to a sub-channel which is welded to the cap rail. 

We feel this system produces a stronger more durable rail system as well as offers

greater options in rail design.

 

 

 

 

 

ALUMINUM IS ONE OF THE MOST RECYCLED METALS IN THE WORLD.

NEARLY 95% OF ALUMINUM IS RECYCLED

(USING 90% LESS ENERGY TO PROCESS)

THE STAINLESS STEEL HARDWARE HAS AN EQUALLY

IMPRESSIVE RECYCLING RATE.

 

POWDER COATING OFFERS A FINISHING PROCESS WITH MINIMAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT.

IT PRODUCES NO V.O.C.’S IN ITS APPLICATION AS WELL AS CURING.

IN MOST CASES THE UNUSED POWDER IS RECYCLED WITHIN THE FINISHING SYSTEM AND

IF NOT IT IS LAND FILL SAFE. ADDITIONALLY WE USE A NON-CHROME CONVERSION COAT PRIOR TO POWDER COATING

 

ALL RAILINGS ARE FULLY WELDED AND FABRICATED FROM ALUMINUM WITH A POWDER COATED FINISH AND STAINLESS STEEL HARDWARE
