Joined the group of element13 insiders for the metallic redesign in 2026!

Aluminium is the 13th element, so I hope you are ready for a ductile, malleable and highly conductive day. In the same spirit, we have given ourselves a suitably shiny, metallic new look Sparkles

Leave a comment below and share your thoughts:

  • Was there a memorable project you brought to life using aluminium?
  • Do you have a favourite aluminium can?
  • Do we have any metal music fans on the community? Black Sabbath, Metallica, Iron Maiden, or other bands?

Plus, in the spirit of our rebrand, an extremely important RoadTest has just opened for enrolment for a highly innovative new product on the market…

    What a shiny new logo! I love working for element13, aluminium's so cool!

  • ngl element13 has a nice ring to it… didn’t expect to like it this much

  • At first, I thought after maintenance the site logo is incorrect or wait did, I opened a wrong website. Then after seeing the road test, ok, E13 team are testing some new feature. After seeing your post felt relieved, we now are E13 community for a while? not sure until Silicon calls us back!

    Aluminium reminds of this childhood fun project (AI generated image). Had a fact check with CoPilot - The classic “tin can phone” was often actually aluminium or steel, not real tin

    Also, the logo reminds of an old animation not exactly remembering it. But the closest I can remember is below.

    I think the AI generated image needs to be tweaked a bit.
