Satin Anodised Alluminium

[Robert Lambie]

aalco near Cambuslang, Glasgow
Austin Alloys, Queenslie Ind, Est Glasgow
Multi-Metals Bellshill

i recon aalco will be the one to do it at best price, but might be wrong.

[Martin Pearson]

I’ve used Multi Metals a few times and service was good but if I remember rightly they had minimum order price and the delivery was expensive to this side of the Country but if your over that way might be better for you.

i havent had any deliveries as they are ALL more or less on my doorstep so i just pick them up. i dont use austin alloys these days though and found aalco’s normaly got what we want in stock most and slightly better priced than multi-metals.

quote Jonathan Wallace:

I have a client who is looking for flat cut satin anodized lettering. Does anyone know of a supplier of such material or what best matches this type of finish? We have a copmany who can cut almost anything so even a supplier of a sheet of this type would be good.

Jonathan, that material is primarily used by engravers, these guys both sell it:

Unless you go to a specialist supplier like the above companies you will pay an arm and a leg for it.

However, you client maybe making a big mistake, once cut, the edges will be raw silver aluminium, open to the weather and will corrode, adding decent, strong fixings will be a nightmare.

I would advise black dibond, gives these guys a call ask for Nancy:
