About Anografics

Anografics® Finish

In addition to offering many standard anodizing processes, Pioneer offers customized Anografics. Anografics literally means anodized graphics. The Anografic process utilizes specialized anodizing techniques to embed photorealistic four-color images on aluminum surfaces.

 

Anografics provides all the advantages inherent to standard anodization. In addition to its obvious decorative and aesthetic appeal, other benefits include wear and corrosion resistance. Anografics is resistant to scratches, abrasion, solvents and chemicals. Anografics are highly resistant to the effects of weathering. Neither the color nor the image will flake, peel, or rub off. This makes Anografics ideal for producing outdoor signage that must endure the harsh effects of sunlight, rain, and other demanding environmental conditions. The brilliant of colors and impressive graphics of Anografics creates unique graphical displays for a number of industries and markets including medical, dental, computer, recreation, and aerospace areas.
