Direct supply to Riga, Liepāja, Ventspils, and Baltic regional infrastructure projects. Engineered for compliance and harsh marine environments.
Aviation infrastructure in Latvia and the wider Baltic region is shifting rapidly from heavy concrete and steel structures toward light, modular, marine-grade aluminum profiles. This transition is motivated by three main challenges: extreme coastal weather conditions, maritime salinity, and strict EASA (European Union Aviation Safety Agency) requirements.
Traditional concrete heliports add immense dead-load to buildings and marine vessels. In hospital rooftop applications, such as emergency trauma departments in Riga, excessive weight forces massive reinforcement of structural columns. Aluminum extrusion profiles, alloyed with high-strength elements like silicon and manganese (specifically 6000-series alloys), reduce dead-weight by up to 60% compared to concrete while providing superior yield strength.
For offshore installations in the Gulf of Riga and near the Baltic maritime routes, structural integrity under high wind loads, freezing rain, and saltwater exposure is critical. Aluminum naturally forms a protective oxide layer that resists corrosion without the need for toxic anti-fouling coatings.
Uncompromising technical precision, aerospace-grade certifications, and heavy-scale industrial manufacturing capability.
Established in 2015 and located in the industrial manufacturing hub of Foshan City, Guangdong, LvXing Intelligent Equipment Co., Ltd. has grown into an international leader in specialized structural aluminum solutions. We maintain a dedicated research and development team of engineers with over 15 years of industry experience. We specialize in converting custom engineering drawings into high-performance, real-world structural components.
Our strategic partnership with Fenglu Aluminum provides us with access to premium raw materials and state-of-the-art smelting and extrusion technology. Running multiple extrusion lines ranging from 800T to a massive 20,000T capacity, we process alloys across the 1xxx, 2xxx, 3xxx, 5xxx, 6xxx, and 7xxx series. This enables us to extrude wide-profile shapes up to 1.2 meters in cross-section width and up to 28 meters in length, satisfying the structural requirements of major aviation and defense operations globally.
We have obtained the "Special Aluminium Materials for Aerospace" Certificate, ensuring every profile matches structural safety thresholds required for commercial aircraft and heavy helicopter landings.
Our advanced extrusion presses handle challenging profiles, minimizing welded joints and increasing mechanical shear strength across the entire helipad structural deck.
Manufacturing processes comply with GB/T19001-2016/ISO9001:2015 standards, ensuring strict quality control from raw billet analysis to anodizing thickness testing.
Addressing Baltic winter conditions, marine salt fog, and EASA compliance for helipad structures.
In northern geographic zones like Latvia, winter temperatures can fall below -30°C. Standard carbon steel structures risk low-temperature embrittlement, where structural members lose ductility and can fail suddenly under dynamic impact loads (such as a hard helicopter landing).
LvXing's 6082-T6 and 6061-T6 aluminum profiles maintain structural ductility and yield strength even at extreme sub-zero temperatures. The mechanical properties of our extruded structural profiles actually improve slightly in cold conditions, providing a margin of safety for hospital rooftop landing zones and search-and-rescue (SAR) bases in Latvia.
Perimeter safety nets are required for all elevated landings under EASA guidelines and CAP 437 specifications. Our stainless steel and aluminum mesh designs are engineered to absorb a minimum drop test energy of 2.3 kJ, ensuring personnel safety while resisting the corrosive marine winds of Ventspils and Riga.
