It references the lightness of ceramic with the sturdiness of aluminum materials. These components come together to form an elegant surface that embodies a luxurious look and feel. Traditionally, laptop lids are made from either plastic or metal due to their resilience. Ceramic is also a premium material but it is also lightweight but fragile. To combat that, ASUS taps the best of the various elements to create Ceraluminum. It is dubbed 'caramelization' as it has certain properties of ceramic to form a material that is lighter than steel yet much more durable than ceramic without compromising the visual aesthetic.
