ALUMAL ELOX 557 – high performance anodizing

Coventya’s ALUMAL ELOX 557 is part of our outstanding aluminium surface treatment product range. This addictive system is specifically formulated to achieve the highest levels of process performance in anodizing installations by improving productivity and increasing efficiency. 

Welcome to optimized anodizing 

But how does ALUMAL ELOX 557 anodizing additive actually work? Well, it basically increases the ordering of the nanopores that are generated during anodic oxidation – which in turn yields higher hardness, increased gloss with a higher transparency and smoother surface finish. And ALUMAL ELOX 557 goes way beyond simply positively affecting oxide layer quality: it also maximises the efficiency of the application itself. By harnessing the equalities of both architectural and functional anodizing, ALUMAL ELOX 557 delivers productivity, sustainability, and quality.  

Benefits 

• energy savings of up to 20% (on reduced cooling costs)
