What is Anodising?

Anodising is an electrolytic passivation process where the porous on  he surface of metals are coated to an oxide layer. This process increases the thickness of  he natural oxide layer, making the metals resistant to corrosion and abrasion.

Why Anodise  Aluminium?

Anodising the aluminium makes the metal stronger and more durable, by adding an oxide layer that is almost as strong as diamond. The oxide on aluminium is naturally corrosion resistant, making it a very hard, abrasive resistant and an insulator. In terms of aesthetic, the anodising process adds a coloured anodic film that will retain and enhance the Aluminium inherent beauty. These aesthetics and durability features make anodised Aluminium the ideal material for residential, commercial and industrial projects.

Cleaning

Linear floor grates are easier to maintain than regular grates. Soapy water is our recommended method of cleaning a Lauxes grate. Mild detergents can be used to wipe and remove any matter or debris caught in the drainage area. Use a nylon cleaning pad or rush to run over the surface, rinse with warm water and dry with a clean cloth. Do not use  abrasive or harsh chemicals such as acidic products on the grates. Also, do not use excessive force to remove any stubborn marks.
