The Process
Heuberger performs finishing of aluminium and other light metals and offers both decorative and functional processes.
The various processes ensure the longevity of the surfaces, which become more resistant to corrosion and better retain their physical properties. Anodising lends surfaces an exquisite finish and is very popular in the design industry as well as in architecture. A wide range of colours is available. Metal finishing results in a harder surface, making it more resistant and providing optimum protection against corrosion. The metals are protected against high temperatures and even become resistant to salt water. The structure and metallic shimmer are retained.

Decorative processes
Pre-treatments, anodic oxidation, colour treatments,
Sandalor process, HB-colour process

Functional processes
Pre-treatments, technical anodising, hard anodising
Passivation through pickling, environmentally-friendly – chrome-6-free – processes since 2006

We supply the following industries
Functional processes in: mechanical engineering, aviation, aerospace, railways, the automotive industry, medical technology, metrology, the optical industry
Decorative processes both for interior and exterior applications in: design, sheet metal technology, architecture, façade construction
