Steel and Aluminum Processing Services in Southeast Asia

Serving Southeast Asia from a Certified Steel and Aluminum Service Center in Singapore

Reliance Metalcenter Asia Pacific Pte. Ltd. is a metals processor and distributor located in Singapore, dedicated to serving manufacturers and OEMs across Southeast Asia. As a regional metal services company, our 40,000-square-foot facility provides advanced metal processing services for aluminum and steel. Our strategic location in the market and an experienced local team let us support customers in Singapore, China, Vietnam, Thailand, India, Malaysia, and Indonesia. We also supply metal to Korea, Japan, Taiwan, and China as part of our broader international supply network.

As a metals supply company for southeast Asia, Reliance Metalcenter Asia-Pacific provides material and value-added services tailored to manufacturers working in sectors such as aerospace, semiconductor equipment, industrial automation, precision machining, and contract manufacturing. Our Singapore operation is established to support high-volume regional needs with fast lead times and in-region customer service.

Aluminum Plate Processing and Supply for Southeast Asia

We stock and process high-performance aluminum plate in Singapore. We provide in-demand grades for industries counting on machinability, strength, and corrosion resistance. Our aluminum plate inventory includes:

• 6061 T6 aluminum plate: Common in aerospace, automation equipment, and precision parts machining. This heat-treated alloy delivers the right balance of strength, weldability, and corrosion resistance.

As a full-service aluminum plate distributor, we also offer several options for surface protection and preparation:

• White PVC-coated aluminum plate
• Black PVC-coated aluminum plate
• Clear PVC-coated aluminum plate
• Laser-cut PVC-coated aluminum plate: These coatings reduce surface scratching during transport or machining and are selected based on application type and finishing needs

Customers sourcing aluminum plate in Singapore can request precision plate cutting services including sawing, shearing, or blanking. Our steel and aluminum toll processing center offers flexibility for JIT manufacturing and subcontracting operations.

Aluminum Bar Stock in Multiple Profiles

In addition to aluminum plate, we maintain a complete selection of aluminum bars, available in standard profiles and custom-cut lengths. Our inventory includes:

• 6061 aluminum bars
• Flat aluminum bars
• Round aluminum bars
• Square aluminum bars
• Aluminum square bars
• Aluminum rectangular bars
• Aluminum flat bar stock
• Aluminum round bar stock

These materials are commonly used in semiconductor tools, medical equipment frames, test fixtures, brackets, and other structural or CNC-machined components. Our customers range from small machine shops to multinational equipment manufacturers. Orders can be shipped as full lengths or cut pieces, depending on production requirements.

Sawing, Blanking, and Plate Cutting Services

As a steel and aluminum toll processing center for southeast Asia, Reliance Metalcenter Asia-Pacific offers advanced material preparation services. Our Singapore facility includes equipment capable of high-volume sawing and close-tolerance blanking. Our cutting capabilities include:

• Bar cutting
• Precision sawing services
• Band sawing services
• Saw cutting services
• Steel plate cutting services
• Aluminium plate cutting services
• Metal blanking
• Metal laser cutting services

These services support customers who require ready-to-machine blanks or fixed-length bar stock. Our team works with customer-supplied cut lists and CAD drawings to optimize material yield and reduce labor at the machining stage. We provide support for recurring programs, kit packaging, and serialized traceability where required.

Scribing and PVC Coating for Plate Protection

For aluminum and stainless steel plates used in precision applications, we offer additional processing options. Our capabilities include:

• Scribed aluminum plate
• Scribed stainless steel plate
• Scribing for aluminum plate

Scribing improves the accuracy of component layout and part nesting prior to laser cutting or machining. Combined with PVC coatings, this protects surface finishes while helping reduce setup time. Customers can request custom scribe patterns or use standard part outlines for recurring components.

Aluminum and Steel Slitting and Roughing

Reliance Metalcenter Asia-Pacific is a reliable source for narrow-width coils and slit-to-width blanks. Our metal slitting and aluminum and steel slitting services help semiconductor and electronics manufacturers meet dimensional requirements for enclosures, shields, and specialty housings.

We also provide metal roughing and aluminum and steel roughing capabilities. These allow customers to reduce wide coil or plate into rough shapes or approximate blanks before additional downstream processing. This is particularly useful for customers preparing for waterjet or router machining.

Shearing and Light Fabrication Prep

As a metal services company and metals processor, Reliance Metalcenter Asia-Pacific supports material preparation at every stage of the supply chain. OCustomers can combinePVC coating for aluminum plate or scribed aluminum plate to receive ready-to-process material for sensitive or cosmetic applications. The Singapore team can also combine multiple services for customers who require multi-step processing or large-volume orders across different material types.
