COLOURED
ANODISING
Coloured anodising provides eye-catching
alternatives which provide attractive finishes for
decorative items whilst, at the same time, giving
the same corrosion protection as Decorative
Sulphuric Anodising.
Colouring Components by Anodising
Colours are achieved
by dyeing the components after anodising and before
the sealing process and utilises specially
formulated dyes. Dyed components are ideal for
internal display items and also colours are commonly
used on external components. Whilst wrought alloys,
with the exception of 2000 series alloys, will
produce satisfactory results when Colour Anodised,
the range of suitable cast alloys is very restricted
- contact us for advice. |

Application of Coloured Anodising
Common applications for Coloured
Anodised aluminium are items and components for Medical and
Colour Coding applications. Certain colours on offer possess better
light-fastness properties - contact us for advice.
Colours Achievable by Anodising
and Finishing Options
The finishing options are further extended by the use of
different polishing and surface finish techniques to provide
effects from a high polished finish to matt, satin and
textured surfaces. Colours that we offer are:
Grey
Black Red
Blue
Gold
Purple
Green
Orange
Hard Anodised components can be dyed but because of the
darker anodising film produced on certain alloys, only black
and very dark colours are likely to be satisfactory. Please

hours, or fill out our e-form by clicking the contact button
