Anodising Service

Although pure aluminium produces its own protective oxide layer, this ability is greatly reduced in alloys of aluminium, meaning they are more susceptible to corrosion.Anodising is an electrolytic passivation process that increases a metals natural oxide layer. This increases the metals corrosion and wear resistance, as well as providing a much more adhesive surface for paints and glues.Anodising can give a ‘natural’ or ‘colour’ finish, with a wide range of colours available, and is commonly used for its aesthetic value as well as the protection it provides.
