Aluminium Cladding: Timeless elegance for your villa
On the Côte d’Azur, beautiful homes deserve a setting that matches their architecture. The Aluminium Cladding Collection DAL’ALU, combines the contemporary design of aluminium with the durability of a noble material.
Designed for villas, pool houses, extensions and high-end residences of the Alpes-Maritimes and the Var, this next-generation aluminium cladding transform a façade into an architectural signature — without compromising on durability.
The suitable aluminium cladding for the exterior and interior of your villa
Decking cladding
Summer kitchen, pool house, beach bar, barbecue area, covered terrace: all structures exposed to UV rays, pool humidity, and saltwater splashes. DAL'ALU aluminium cladding is in its element here: no visible degradation, no yellowing, no loss of colour — even after successive summers under the Mediterranean sun.
Interior wall cladding
Aluminium cladding does not stop at the exterior. Inside, it becomes a spectacular architectural decorative element: an accent wall in a double-height living room, cladding for a stairwell, a visual separation between two open spaces, the base of a counter, or a decorative partition in a master suite.
Fencing, screen and privacy screen
Demarcating a property without weighing down its aesthetics, creating a slatted privacy screen to preserve the seclusion of a terrace, structuring a garden with openwork panels: aluminium lends itself to all these applications with the same strength and elegance. Vertical or horizontal installation, finishes matching those of the façade: the visual coherence of the entire property is guaranteed.
Facade cladding for villa
Aluminium facade cladding is the prime application of the collection. Whether you are embarking on the construction of a new villa with a strong architectural signature, or renovating a residence by replacing ageing render, aluminium provides an aesthetic, technical and thermal solution.
Carport facade cladding
The faux open-joint cladding also dresses carports with the same aesthetic standard as the main façade. Weather- and UV-resistant, it offers an elegant and durable alternative to wood, for a carport that naturally integrates with the architecture of the villa — without ever betraying its style.
Modular home
Tiny house, garden studio, outdoor office or house extension: aluminium cladding gives modular constructions a high-end finish that is consistent with the main building. Lightweight and quick to install, it is suitable for all projects, from independent studios to the most ambitious architectural extensions.

The DAL'ALU aluminium cladding: a next-generation façade cladding
The DAL'ALU Aluminium Cladding Collection is designed from a high-quality alloy — the Nobial — formed on an industrial roll-forming line. The result: a aluminium cladding board rigid, lightweight and perfectly flat, calibrated to offer a ventilated facade high-performing and exceptional visual output.
Unlike timber cladding, which requires woodstain, treatment and regular maintenance, or composite cladding, which is vulnerable to Mediterranean UV rays, this external aluminium cladding retains its original appearance for decades. This is precisely what makes it architects' preferred facade cladding for luxury villas of the Azure coast Cannes, Mougins, Saint-Paul-de-Vence, Antibes, Mandelieu, Saint-Tropez, Sainte-Maxime or Ramatuelle.

Frequently asked questions about aluminium cladding
Is aluminium cladding really more durable than timber cladding?
Yes, without comparison. Where timber cladding needs to be treated every 2 to 5 years and has a practical lifespan of 15 to 25 years depending on exposure, DAL’ALU aluminium cladding comes with a 40-year guarantee on its stunning colours and requires no treatment.
Can aluminium cladding be installed for renovation work?
Yes. Its lightness (3 kg/m²) makes it compatible with almost all existing substrates — masonry, timber framing, old render — without requiring structural reinforcement.
Does aluminium cladding deform with heat?
No. The Nobial alloy used and the modular fixing system accommodate thermal expansion. No visible deformation is to be feared, even in the full Mediterranean sunshine.
Is there a wood effect that is realistic enough?
The Golden Oak and Teak finishes offer a visual and tactile appearance very close to real wood, all the more so from a distance against a villa façade. This is precisely the choice adopted by numerous villas in Cap d'Antibes and Saint-Tropez.
Does aluminium cladding improve the insulation of the house?
The cladding itself doesn't insulate. However, when installed on a framework with a ventilated cavity (ventilated façade), it significantly improves the thermal performance of the façade and can be combined with external wall insulation (EWI) for a comprehensive energy refurbishment.
Do you cover the whole of the Côte d'Azur?
