Albang Hardware produces essential components that enhance the energy efficiency, weatherproofing, and sound insulation of buildings. Albang Hardware is involved in designing, producing, and supplying rubber seal strips used for sealing gaps around doors and windows. These strips are crucial for preventing drafts, water ingress, and noise pollution, thereby improving the overall comfort and energy efficiency of residential and commercial spaces. The production process at Albang Hardware involves selecting appropriate materials, such as EPDM, silicone, or PVC, to ensure durability and performance under various environmental conditions. Albang Hardware often offers customization options to fit different door and window profiles and may provide additional services such as installation guidance or technical support.
