Aluminium Anodising, a Cost Effective Solution
Since the 1920’s aluminium has revolutionised the metals industry. This lightweight, high strength metal is durable and offers a variety of flexible fabrication methods, which has allowed it to penetrate many industries.
With the on-going development of finishing technologies, aluminium has become a sought-after material within several industries. Finished aluminium is a more attractive material and requires less maintenance. It is a cost-effective solution for both components and finished products.
Aluminium Anodising
This electrochemical process, integrates the aluminium oxide (Al2O3) layer onto aluminium. When the oxide layer is thickened, it strengthens the metal components and provides additional corrosion resistance. The anodising process creates a porous finish, which allows secondary coatings to be applied. The application of colours and sealants, can produce attractive and hard-wearing finishes.
Components which have undergone the anodising process at Edmo Ltd, have good ultra-violet stability, and do not chip or peel providing lasting appeal.
