Cairns Aluminium Fabrication
Aluminium’s high strength-to-weight ratio and natural corrosion resistance make it a go-to material for marine, structural, and industrial fabrication.
At Boyd’s Fabrications in Cairns, we deliver precision aluminium fabrication tailored to your project requirements. Whether you need marine parts, structural components, or custom aluminium builds, our team of qualified fabricators have the expertise and machinery to handle everything in-house—from design to fabrication and installation.
We work with premium-grade aluminium to create everything from fuel and water tanks to access platforms, bow rails, handrails, and custom enclosures. Each job is engineered accurately, ensuring clean welds, solid construction, and a professional finish. Our workshop includes advanced pipe and tube bending tools, sheet folding, and precision cutting, allowing us to complete custom aluminium work quickly and to spec.
If you need a durable, rust-resistant solution that can perform in harsh environments, call Boyd’s Fabrications today at

Quality Metalwork, Every Time.
Light-Weight, High-Strength Aluminium
Aluminium is one of the most adaptable materials due to its lightweight properties, non-magnetic nature, and corrosion resistance—even in marine or industrial settings.
Our aluminium fabrication services cater to various industries and applications, including marine vessels, transport systems, construction sites, and domestic environments. We produce structural and non-structural components requiring precision and resilience under daily use.
Some of our frequently fabricated items include custom gas tanks, dog crates, toolboxes, canopies, boarding ladders, and deck fixtures. We also create railing systems, structural supports, and fully bespoke aluminium assemblies based on customer drawings or reverse-engineered components. Our skilled team uses TIG and MIG welding methods to ensure strong, clean welds that meet industry standards.
With capabilities in folding, rolling, and bending aluminium plates and tubing, we offer solutions built for longevity and tailored to suit both functional and aesthetic requirements.
Get in touch with our team to bring your ideas to life.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is aluminium used in fabrication?
Aluminium is popular in fabrication because it is lightweight and easy to work with. It is ideal for applications where strength is needed without adding excess weight, such as in marine or automotive builds. It also resists rust, which makes it suitable for outdoor and coastal environments.
Can aluminium be welded like steel or stainless steel?
Yes, aluminium can be welded using specialised techniques such as TIG (tungsten inert gas) and MIG (metal inert gas) welding. However, welding aluminium requires more skill than welding steel, which has a lower melting point and higher thermal conductivity.
Is aluminium strong enough for structural applications?
While it isn’t as strong as steel, its excellent strength-to-weight ratio makes it highly efficient. It is commonly used in structural frames, supports, and components in the marine, construction, and transport industries.
