In the past, lighting parts manufacturers mostly used steel as material for their lighting products. Aluminum is a more recent innovation in the field of lighting fixtures manufacturing, although aluminum lighting parts have been in the market for a long time as well.

In fact, these days, aluminum is the material of choice for builders and engineers who are constantly looking for lighting fixtures for their projects.

Aluminum lighting parts have many advantages over those made of other materials. In terms of cost, for example, lighting parts that are made of aluminum are cheaper than those made of other materials because the raw material itself is relatively cheaper. When it comes to performance, lighting parts that are made of aluminum are also top-notch. For one, the material is highly conductive and has excellent thermal properties that allow it to withstand high temperatures.

Aluminum lighting parts are also convenient to transport, because they are three times lighter than their steel counterpart. And because they are heavier, even transportation costs are minimal, compared to transporting steel. There are a wide range of aluminum lighting parts in the market these days. The wide selection is caused by the fact the aluminum is flexible and pliable, allowing manufacturers to produce parts in different shapes and sizes, and for any application that they can be used for.
