Anodising is the chemical process of producing a translucent film of aluminium oxide that forms an integral part of aluminium. Aluminium exposed to the atmosphere forms a naturally occuring oxide film on it’s surface, which can be easily scrapped off. The anodising process causes the aluminium to become resistant to abrasion and protects the underlying material.

These can be produced from a whole range of materials. They can be CNC punched or laser-cut, formed and fabricated. Studs and fasteners can be applied, with finishes ranging from anodising, plating and stove enameling to powder coating.

Etching is the process of using strong acid to cut into the unprotected parts of a metal surface to create a design. Engraving is the mechanical method of cutting into a material using a tool.
