Both aluminum profile manufacturers and aluminum profile distributors sell aluminum profiles, and a search on the Internet is all about aluminum profile manufacturers. Many people can't help but wonder, are there so many aluminum profile manufacturers in China? The answer is of course not. In fact, most of them are aluminum profile dealers, who provide some processing and assembly services, and can also be called aluminum profile deep processing manufacturers. So what is the difference between aluminum profile manufacturers and aluminum profile distributors?
1. Aluminum profile manufacturers have extrusion equipment, because aluminum profiles are produced by extrusion, and extrusion equipment is necessary for the production of aluminum profiles. If you don't even have an extruder, how can you talk about producing aluminum profiles? Many aluminum profile manufacturers are also equipped with surface treatment workshops, because most aluminum profiles need surface treatment after they are produced. Like industrial aluminum profiles, anodizing is required. The wastewater generated by surface treatment needs to be discharged up to the standard. Manufacturers will build professional sewage treatment centers, and special personnel will be on duty 24 hours a day.
2. The aluminum profile manufacturers are based on quantity and do not have inventory. Because most of the manufacturers' customers are dealers, and some are accessories that their own products need, such as solar aluminum frames. These quantities are relatively large, and we will produce as many orders as the customers place, at most the difference between positive and negative. The dealers generally stock up, and the dealers are aimed at retailers and direct users, so the buyers are relatively scattered, and they have to be sawed into different sizes, machined, etc., so the dealers will prepare inventory. There are many customers who find us on the Internet to ask for a few materials, we generally do not have them, and even if there are, the price will not be low. The price is even higher than the dealer. Therefore, it is enough to buy scattered aluminum profiles and find a dealer.
3. Aluminum profile manufacturers can customize aluminum profiles. Of course, dealers also say that they can customize aluminum profiles. In fact, they still find manufacturers to customize them. Large-scale manufacturers have their own ability to open molds independently, and general manufacturers will entrust mold chess factories to open molds. After the mold is opened, it will be sent to the aluminum material factory, and the aluminum material factory will keep it uniformly.
4. The registered capital of aluminum profile manufacturers is relatively high, because various equipment needs to be invested, the plant covers a large area, and the number of employees is also relatively large (involving extrusion, aging, sandblasting, oxidation, sawing, packaging, storage, etc. , equipment maintenance, sewage treatment, sales, customer service, procurement, logistics support, etc.), and like our aluminum profile manufacturer with deep processing, there are more personnel.
