BASICS OF SURFACE TREATMENT
FUNCTIONAL BENEFITS
- Increased corrosion resistance for a longer service life
- Improved mechanical strength
- Suitable for demanding environments
Surface treatment of sheet metal not only improves its visual appearance, but also the mechanical properties of the metal. Targeted post-processing steps increase corrosion resistance, thereby extending the service life of the products.
This is particularly important in environments with high levels of humidity or significant temperature fluctuations. These treatments help ensure that products can withstand demanding conditions in various applications.
AESTHETIC BENEFITS
In addition to the functional aspects, these processes also optimise the aesthetics of metal components. A high-quality surface can significantly increase the value of a product and make it more attractive to end consumers. Whether polished to a high gloss or given a matt textured finish, the possibilities are diverse and contribute to brand development.

SHEET METAL COATING PROCESSES AT WECUBEX
SHEET METAL COATING: SPECIALISED SURFACE TREATMENTS
ANODISING AND HARD ANODISING
Anodising is a process specifically designed for aluminium. It improves corrosion resistance and gives the metal an attractive, durable surface. Hard anodising goes one step further, creating an especially hard and durable coating that is ideal for mechanically stressed components.
PASSIVATION AND CHEM-FILM
Passivation is mainly used for stainless steel to strengthen the natural protective layer and increase corrosion resistance. Chem-Film is an excellent option for aluminium components that require a non-conductive coating. This technique improves protection against environmental influences without impairing electrical conductivity.
