Anodizing and Dyeing Process:

In order to meet the diverse color requirements of the part surface, our latest process, the anodizing + precision dyeing composite process, is an extremely complex one. It requires a comprehensive cleaning of aluminum products first to ensure their cleanliness. Then, the products are subjected to anodizing treatment, which forms a hard and porous oxide film on the surface of the products. This oxide film can not only improve the corrosion resistance of aluminum products but also enhance their wear resistance. Subsequently, through the dyeing or electrolytic coloring process, dyes or metal ions are introduced into the pores of the oxide film to form text patterns, achieving the anti-scratch effect for the surface text. In this way, the products can achieve the goals of both being aesthetically pleasing and durable.

Anti-scratch Texture Process:

Technological research and development as well as quality control are the core driving forces that enable GREFEE to continuously lead the consumer electronics market.
