We translate design intent into a physical finish system, developed on the target alloy and texture, documented for inspection, and prepared for production transfer.

What We Offer
Color and finish development, built to scale.
Custom color development
Develop a distinctive, repeatable color that carries from first sample to production
Cross-alloy color alignment
Achieve the closest technically possible visual alignment across alloy families while defining realistic tolerances for each substrate and surface condition
Custom finish development
Create surface treatments that give premium products their tactile and visual character
Multi-site scalability for global programs
Build recipes and controls that stay consistent across lines, plants, and production partners
Full process cards, color plaques, and inspection plans
Document the recipe, reference the color, and inspect every stage with a clear control plan
From mood board to mass production
A documented development process
for a repeatable anodized finish
Define the intent
Reference sample, color target, gloss, texture, tactile character, and viewing conditions
Establish the material system
Alloy selection, machining, blasting, mechanical preparation, and chemical pretreatment
Develop the anodized finish
Oxide parameters, chemical pretreatment, dye formulation, sealing, and process tolerances
Validate the appearance
Physical samples, color measurements, gloss measurements, texture measurements and visual assessment under controlled lighting
Validate the formulation
Reliability testing to ensure consistent performance across the defined process window
Transfer to production
Master samples, process cards, inspection criteria, tolerances, and production-line trials
What you receive
A finish system ready for inspection and production
An anodized color is not created by dye alone. It is the combined result of alloy, surface texture, chemical pretreatment, oxide structure, dyeing, and sealing.
