Copper in Construction

A versatile and long-lasting metal, copper has been utilised in building for millennia. ILF Ltd is pleased to provide a variety of copper products for the building sector as a specialised metal stockholder and producer.

Copper has many other uses as cladding and flashing material for gutters, downpipes, and coping because of how easily complex designs can be formed from it. Copper wire is frequently used to build cables for communications and electrical systems. Even though copper has many different uses, only around half of the world’s supply finds its way into structures. Sometimes it is used as a decorative piece for architecture as copper roofs and facades.

Uses of Copper in Construction

Thanks to malleability and ease of soldering properties of copper, it is frequently used in the construction sector to create pipes and tubes for the distribution of potable water as well as for heating and cooling systems.

It is also utilised as a cladding and flashing material for gutters, downpipes, and coping because of how easily complex designs can be formed from it. Copper wire is frequently used to build cables for communications and electrical systems.

It may be both hot and cold worked, and joints can be made by brazing, welding, mechanical fasteners or soldering as well as by employing adhesives.

The levels of temper can be chosen as gentle, half-hard, hard, spring, and extra-spring.
