Tailor-made solutions based on technical drawings for specialist applications.
Sika specializes in the production of special steel profiles and metal sections made to the customer’s drawing by cold roll forming. With deep technical expertise and a wide range of equipment, we deliver special profiles in steel, aluminum and copper for industrial, architectural, infrastructure and design applications. Every profile is engineered for strength, precision and easy integration.
Producing special profiles, including complex geometries and special surface finishes, provides flexible and long-lasting solutions across many industries. Using cold roll forming, stamping, punching, bending and calendering, we manufacture high-performance components to tight tolerances. Discover all our custom profiles.
Cold roll forming involves feeding metal sheet through a series of rollers that gradually deform it into the final desired shape. This continuous, automated process ensures high dimensional accuracy, excellent repeatability, and minimal material waste. It enables the production of a wide variety of open, closed, or shaped custom metal profiles.
Cold stamping uses presses equipped with molds to form complex 3D shapes, often including folds or ribs that enhance structural strength. This method is ideal for large production runs, offering high productivity and excellent detail accuracy in the resulting geometries.
Punching creates holes, slots, or custom-shaped openings directly in the metal sheet, often in combination with roll forming or stamping. This step allows semi-finished profiles to be pre-configured for fastenings, cable routing, or assembly systems, saving time and increasing efficiency during installation.
Bending is carried out using specialized machines such as rollers or press brakes to form profiles with fixed or variable curves. This process adds design flexibility, enabling the creation of architectural or structural components with smooth lines, precise radius control, and excellent repeatability.
The raw material is metal strip supplied in coils: stainless, galvanized, corten and pickled steel, and aluminum. Stainless steel is available in several alloys, such as AISI 304, 316 and 430, depending on the strength and workability required. The strip is slit to the width needed for the desired section, with maximum flexibility in geometry and project specifications.
Steel in all its forms (corten, stainless, satin-finish) ensures high performance and reliability under heavy loads or harsh environmental conditions.
Variants like corten steel and stainless steel minimize maintenance needs, thanks to their inherent corrosion resistant properties.
The flexibility of cold-forming processes allows the creation of complex geometries and surface finishes tailored to specific technical or aesthetic requirements.
Automated production and reduced waste make special profiles cost-effective, even in large volumes.
Our selection includes not only classic carbon steels, but also premium alloys and specialized variants designed to meet precise project requirements.
Corten steel, for instance, naturally forms a protective outer layer that makes it highly resistant to weathering, while giving it a warm, distinctive appearance.
Stainless steel is ideal where high hygiene standards or strong corrosion resistance are required, thanks to alloying elements such as chromium.
Satin-finish steel, with its elegant look and low maintenance, suits architectural and design applications. The range also includes pickled steel profiles, cleaned of oxides and ready for coating or further processing. Finally, special profiles in aluminum offer a lightweight, durable alternative where structural weight must be reduced or highly complex shapes are needed.
Special steel profiles are used in many fields: architectural and load-bearing structures, modular systems, electrical cabinets, automation components and industrial furniture. They are valued wherever custom geometries, strength and adaptability to non-standard construction solutions are required.
Our solid experience, ongoing innovation and strong presence in the industry make us the ideal partner for those seeking high-level solutions. Choosing Sika for special steel profiles means relying on a company with the highest quality standards. Discover the certifications we have achieved as proof of our commitment.
They are metal profiles with a section designed to the customer’s drawing, not available from a catalogue. We produce them by cold roll forming from strip and complete them with punching, bending or welding according to the application.
We work carbon and pickled steel, galvanized steel, AISI 304, 316 and 430 stainless steel, corten steel, aluminum and copper, in thicknesses from 0.4 to 4 mm.
Send us the profile drawing with material, thickness, quantity and required processing: our technical department will reply with a feasibility check and a quotation.
