Alum Shine Inc. — Toronto · 15+ Years in Aluminum & Glass

From StructureTo Statement.

We engineer the face of the building — ACM, aluminum, corrugated metal and curtain wall systems, designed, fabricated and installed across Toronto and the GTA.

Scroll — the anatomy of a façade
§ 01 — Position

A building is judged from the sidewalk. We design, fabricate and install the surface that does the judging.

Alum Shine Inc. is a Toronto façade partner with more than fifteen years in aluminum and glass. We are not a siding crew with a truck — we run estimation, façade design, shop drawings, 3D measurement, in-house fabrication, project management and installation as one continuous process, so the elevation you drew is the elevation that gets built.

The Cinematic Sequence

Eight stages between a wall and a façade.

The Existing Building — Alumshine façade process
01Chapter

The Existing Building

Every façade starts with a structure that already exists.

We begin by reading the building as it stands: substrate, sheathing, openings, exposure and the condition of what is currently on the wall. Free estimation is the first conversation — before any material is chosen, we establish what the building can carry and what it needs.

  • Site assessment
  • Substrate & exposure review
  • Free estimate
The Vision — Alumshine façade process
02Chapter

The Vision

What the building should say when it is finished.

A façade is the first and longest conversation a building has with the street. We work from your intent — the read you want, the neighbours you sit beside, the budget you have — and turn it into a clear design direction before drawings begin.

  • Design intent
  • Budget alignment
  • System strategy
The Material — Alumshine façade process
03Chapter

The Material

ACM, aluminum, corrugated metal, glass.

Material is not decoration; it is performance. ACM gives a flat architectural plane. Aluminum siding gives board and shadow. Corrugated gives profile and depth. Curtain wall gives light. We select for climate, fire performance, maintenance and the look you're after.

  • PE & FR cores
  • Solid, metallic, wood, stone
  • 10–30 year finish warranty
The Design — Alumshine façade process
04Chapter

The Design

Panel layout, joint lines, shop drawings.

Façade design is where the elevation is resolved: panel sizing, joint alignment, corner returns, reveals and transitions. Shop drawings turn that geometry into something a shop can fabricate and a crew can install without improvising on site.

  • Panel layout
  • Joint & reveal setting
  • Shop drawings
The Measurement — Alumshine façade process
05Chapter

The Measurement

3D scanning and as-built dimensions.

Because panels are custom, measurement decides whether the façade fits. We 3D scan the exterior walls or manually measure every length and angle after the substrate is clean and the windows are installed — never before.

  • 3D scanning
  • As-built verification
  • Tolerance control
The Fabrication — Alumshine façade process
06Chapter

The Fabrication

Cut, routed and folded in our shop.

In our North York shop, panels are cut, routed and folded to specification, with installation hardware attached before anything reaches site. Controlled fabrication is what makes fast, precise installation possible.

  • CNC cutting & routing
  • Folding & hardware
  • Shop quality control
The Installation — Alumshine façade process
07Chapter

The Installation

Weather barrier, mounting system, panel.

On site the sequence is unforgiving: waterproofing membrane and flashings first, then the mounting system that determines that panels sit flat and safe, then panel by panel until the elevation closes. Project management keeps the trades, the schedule and the inspections in order.

  • Weather barrier & flashings
  • Mounting system
  • Panel installation
Finished Architecture — Alumshine façade process
08Chapter

Finished Architecture

From structure to statement.

What was a building becomes a face. Flat, aligned, weather-tight, and built to hold its finish through Ontario winters with nothing more than washing — backed by finish warranties of ten to thirty years.

  • Maintenance-free finish
  • 10–30 year warranty
  • Handover & walkthrough
§ 02Façade Systems

Choose the material, and the building changes.

Seven systems, each with a different structural logic and a different read from the street. Select one to see what it does.
All systems
ACM / ACP façade system by Alumshine

Aluminum composite panels (ACM, also called ACP) are two bonded aluminum sheets over a solid polyethylene or fire-retardant core. The result is a flat, lightweight, rigid cladding panel that can be cut, routed and folded into custom façade shapes — used for exterior walls, soffits, column wraps, canopies and signage.

Why it works
  • Finish quality
  • Speed
  • Climate durability
Applications
  • Façade cladding
  • Exterior wall cladding
  • Column wraps
  • Soffits
