Our large parts plant
BWB-Altenrhein AG possesses the most modern large parts anodising plant within the BWB Group. This guarantees the availability of all anodising processing and colouring processes for components for use in architecture which are standard in Europe. Our very wide range of different colorations is particularly popular with architects and designers: in natural colours or colourless, or in various brown-beige colour tones, grey tones through to black and a bright palette of other colour tones.

Your components - Our treatment

We offer sulphuric acid anodising, hard anodising and chromic acid anodising/chromic acid anodising for aircraft constructors. Altenrhein serves customers in aviation and aerospace, medical engineering and machine engineering.
