For That Finishing Touch

Our finishing capabilities, encompassing both powder coating and anodizing, provide you with endless possibilities. We will be happy to discuss the best options for you.

Anodizing – The UMEX anodizing department offers you numerous color selections, such as clear, gold, bronze, black and many others, in a finish that is durable and easy to maintain, with good adhesion properties. Anodized aluminum will not fade, maintaining its original metallic sheen and luster for many years.

Powder Coating – This eco-friendly process, handled on our large, vertical paint line, achieves a wide variety of appealing finishes. It also provides that extra layer of protection against corrosion, fading or chipping and scratching. Powder-coated aluminum gives you a long-lasting finish that is accomplished for an attractive, economical price.

Wet Paint – This popular finishing technique is offered in a seemingly endless array of colors. Choose from a range of different paint types, including acrylics, fluoropolymers and PVDF coatings. Our exacting pre-treatment process ensures long-term, corrosion-resistant performance.

Quality from End to End

Every order we fulfill at UMEX undergoes a rigid quality control process. Your aluminum extruded product is tested to the highest standards, through a series of detailed inspection stages. This is true of the entire manufacturing chain, including the individual packaging and shipping of your order.

At UMEX, it’s no accident that we’ve been serving many of the same loyal clients for decades. And we’re always eager to give new customers that same superior brand of service.
