There is one big reason why I love anodizing: It is the most sustainable surface treatment.
Yip, that’s right. Other surface treatments like powder, paint or plating are more harmful to the #environment than anodizing.
Why?
Because most surface treatments rely on organic solvents or heavy metals which reduces the recyclability of aluminum.
Not so anodizing!
In my latest blog post, I explain, why anodizing does not reduce the recyclability of aluminum AND four requirements you should discuss with your anodizer to make your anodized product as sustainable as possible.

P.S. I will also do a live online course about creating sustainable anodized aluminum products in 2023 – you can sign up for the waiting list here.
