alUMINIUM TREATMENT
Two new additions to our full line of Aluminium Pre and Post Treatment Chemistry
are our TRIVATE AL Trivalent Aluminium Passivate and our ALUDYE Aluminium
Anodising Dyes. Trivate AL is suitable for use with Aluminium and Aluminium
castings providing a clear or slightly coloured Trivalent Passivation layer giving
excellent corrosion resistance over a wide range of operating parameters.
Our Aludye Anodising dyes provide consistent colouring and performance across
a wide range of conditions as well as meeting light fastness and hardness
specifications. Coupled with the excellent technical performance are considerable
benefits in operating costs when compared to other popular dyes on the market.
These two additions give us the opportunity to offer a full process line of
Aluminium Treatment Chemistry to the UK market.
At the very
forefront of
plating technology
for the General
Metal Finishing
industry for
60 years.
