Piscataway, NJ -- (ReleaseWire) -- 10/06/2025 --Canopies come in all shapes and sizes, but one thing that most people agree on is that metal building canopies are the best material to use. Specifically, the team at MASA Architectural Canopies uses aluminum for all metal canopies that they build and install. While they also use other materials, such as tempered glass, the main structure itself is made from aluminum. The metal building canopies are durable additions that will last for many decades with minimal maintenance. Wood materials can degrade and rot in the outdoors, whereas steel and iron materials will begin to rust. Aluminum doesn't rust and will not rot, which means that it will look the same 10 years later as it did on day one.

When talking about building canopies and using aluminum as the structure, many people have a hard time understanding that aluminum can be very strong and durable. They are only thinking about the very thin metal cans that they consume beverages from, but this is definitely not the same as structural aluminum. Aluminum is also highly recyclable and does not lose any of its properties, as it is melted down and reformed into any number of products.

Aluminum is a green material; in that it saves up to 95% of the energy required to make products when compared to producing new aluminum from raw materials. Recycling aluminum is also much cheaper than mining the raw materials to produce new aluminum. Because of these factors, aluminum is highly recycled, and a metal building canopy will be produced with recycled aluminum.

Metal building canopies are both highly durable as well as aesthetically pleasing. While they have several pre-engineered canopy designs that can be customized for any building, they are also able to help design unique applications. Aluminum is a much easier material to customize in both size and shape, and it blends well with other materials including wood and glass. And of course, the benefits to the building that a metal building canopy is attached to, including reduced maintenance on entrances.

Building canopies come in unlimited sizes, colors, and shapes and include many different materials. However, there is only one kind of metal canopy that is the best value for the investment, and that is the aluminum building canopies that MASA Architectural Canopies builds.
