Sweden's geographic configuration, spanning critical maritime pathways in the Baltic Sea, heavy industrial zones in Norrland, and advanced urban healthcare networks (such as HEMS serving regional hospitals in Stockholm, Gothenburg, and Linköping), demands exceptional helipad structural systems. The regional weather profiles involve sub-zero conditions, high snow load accumulation, wind-driven marine salt spray, and extreme structural fatigue limits.
Traditional steel and concrete helidecks present distinct structural challenges: excessive deadweight, structural corrosion risk, complex thermal contraction variations, and protracted maintenance cycles. Consequently, the Swedish commercial and industrial sectors are transitioning rapidly to modular, high-grade extruded aluminum systems.
Aluminum's inherent characteristics—high strength-to-weight ratio, structural elasticity, and exceptional corrosion resistance in marine environments (such as C5-M classification areas)—render it the preferred material for architectural, rooftop, and offshore landing pads across the Nordic region.
We supply customizable helipad profiles for a broad matrix of local industries:

For helipad applications in the Swedish market, choice of alloy is the primary variable governing performance and durability. Under extreme weather profiles where temperatures fluctuate from summer highs to freezing sub-zero winter temperatures, the thermal stresses, friction variables, and load-bearing dynamics must be calculated precisely.
The primary structural alloys utilized are **6082-T6** and **6005A-T6**. These magnesium-silicon-manganese alloys demonstrate optimal structural parameters:
Widely specified across Europe for structural applications. Characterized by exceptional mechanical properties, outstanding fatigue resistance, and robust performance under dynamic stress loads from helicopter landings. Very high weldability and excellent corrosion protection post-anodizing.
Offers superior surface finish and allows for intricate profile shapes with thin structural walls. Excellent for integrated drainage, localized heating ducts (for de-icing), and interlocking structural joints where high precision is required to achieve absolute tightness.
Typically used for peripheral components (perimeter safety nets, support brackets, and electrical cabling enclosures). Highly resistant to chloride stress corrosion cracking, essential for helidecks positioned on marine vessels navigating Baltic routes.
With Lvxing's **20,000T extrusion line**, we produce monolithic structural profiles that eliminate the welding defects typically seen in multi-piece assemblies. By controlling the extrusion speed and quenching temperatures, we ensure optimal grain boundary structure within the aluminum matrix. This precision minimizes the Risk of Intergranular Corrosion (IGC)—a vital factor in the longevity of marine helipads.
We have obtained the "Special Aluminium Materials for Aerospace" Certificate, validating our standards for structural safety and microstructural precision.
Utilizing premium Fenglu aluminum and extrusion lines from 800T to 20,000T, we manufacture alloys across 1xxx to 7xxx, up to 1.2m wide and 28m long.
Our R&D team brings 15 years of industry experience to help clients refine their concepts, design high-strength joint structures, and solve structural engineering challenges.
Building or operating a helipad in Sweden involves adherence to highly specific European and local national regulations. Heliports must comply with **ICAO Annex 14 Volume II**, **EASA Annex XIV** for aerodromes, and Swedish-specific guidelines outlined by **Transportstyrelsen (TSFS)**.
Aluminum profiles used in structural components must carry the **CE Mark** under **EN 1090-3** (Execution of aluminium structures) and **EN 1999 (Eurocode 9)** for design of aluminum structural systems. Lvxing's helipad extrusion processes are certified in alignment with these standards, ensuring every batch shipped to Sweden meets strict regulatory audit requirements.
Key safety factors addressed by our engineering profiles include:
Typical engineering drawing showcasing interlocking structural joints and friction patterns.
Sweden leads global industrial sectors in transitioning to sustainable, fossil-free manufacturing practices. In response, Lvxing is committed to lowering the carbon intensity of our aluminum extrusion lines. By choosing primary aluminum smelted with clean energy grids and utilizing high ratios of clean post-industrial recycled material, we minimize the lifecycle carbon footprint of our helipad profiles.
Furthermore, since aluminum is 100% recyclable, decommissioned helipads can be re-smelted into the circular economy, representing an ideal choice for Swedish green building and infrastructure certifications (such as Miljöbyggnad or BREEAM-SE).
Our ongoing technological development focuses on several primary updates:
A: For marine offshore helidecks, we recommend 6082-T6 alloy. It provides high yield and tensile strength comparable to mild steel while maintaining excellent resistance to saltwater corrosion and stress cracking. For secondary fittings and non-structural components, 5xxx series alloys like 5083 or 5052 are ideal.
A: Our profiles are custom engineered to handle heavy snow build-up and live dynamic landing loads simultaneously. Additionally, we manufacture customized hollow extrusion profiles with integrated ducts designed to route heating media (glycol-based fluids) or electrical resistance heating cables, providing active surface de-icing.
A: Yes. Supported by our 20,000T extrusion press and in-house mold facility, we can manufacture customized shapes with width profiles up to 1.2 meters and lengths up to 28 meters, designed to meet your specific structural load requirements.
A: Yes, our structural profiles are produced to comply with the European Eurocode 9 (EN 1999) for aluminum structures and EN 1090-3 execution standards. Our production facility is certified to the GB/T19001-2016/ISO9001:2015 quality management standard, ensuring structural safety and batch-to-batch consistency.
A: We use export-grade wooden framing, protective plastic wrapping, and steel strap binding to protect profiles from saltwater exposure during maritime transit. Orders are shipped in standard or high-cube ocean containers directly to ports like Gothenburg or Stockholm.
