More About our Metal Finishing Services

We provide a range of metal finishing services and additional options.  We powder coat in-house via our partner company Custom Wytelyne.  We work closely with external suppliers for other finishes such as galvanising, plating and anodising. We offer the following metal finishing options: ​

  • Powder Coating – Generally thicker than liquid, powder coating is used to provide a chemical and scratch resistant surface which is durable and customisable with colours and textures. Now provided in-house by our partner company Custom Wytelyne
  • Galvanisation – A popular option for steel products particularly, galvanisation is the process of coating metal with a layer of molten zinc. As a long-term solution with exceptional durability, it tends to be a more sustainable option reducing maintenance costs and environmental impact.
  • Thermal Zinc Spraying – A newer alternative to hot-dip galvanizing that provides coated steel the same life protection as hot-dip galvanizing. While more expensive, it removes the risk of heat distortion, avoids zinc buildup, and provides a more uniform base layer for powder coating on top.
  • Anodising – Typically used on aluminium, anodising is the technique of submerging metal in an acidic electrolyte bath and running a current through it. The release of oxygen causes a layer to form over the metal, which increases the natural corrosion resistance of aluminium. Plus, as the process adds no additional materials to the aluminium, it is still 100% recyclable.
  • Electroplating – Metal plating has been used for hundreds of years and refers to coating one metal with another. It can be used to harden the surface, increase corrosion resistance and even shield radiation, as well as achieving a different look when required. This is particularly useful in hard landscaping projects.
