Aluminium: Control Panels
Our aluminium control panels are lightweight, strong, and corrosion-resistant, ensuring durability. Their good electrical conductivity enhances performance, and the material is suitable for customisation through our state-of-the-art engraving techniques. The sleek appearance adds aesthetic value,
Aluminium Control Panels
We specialise in manufacturing high-quality anodised aluminium control panels with a focus on functionality and durability. Bespoke precision engineering and custom sub-surface printing make our control panels ideal for various manufacturing needs.
Our control panels are purpose-built for use in demanding conditions. They are engineered to withstand the test of time, requiring minimal maintenance. Aluminium is inherently resistant to corrosion, and enhanced by the anodisation process, our panels maintain their appearance even in challenging environments, making them a reliable and durable investment.
Known for their long lifespan, our panels can endure extreme temperatures, weathering, chemicals, acids, oil, sea salt corrosion, thermal shock, and grease. Using a superior sub-surface printing technique, we ensure that the ink forms an enduring connection with the aluminium, resulting in a permanent and consistently legible bond. This exceptional quality not only guarantees resilience against various environmental challenges, but also safeguards from potential damage, preserving visual clarity for the long term.
Engineered for indoor or outdoor use, our control panels are versatile for use across various industries, such as the aerospace or food sectors. Drilled with bespoke, precision-milled apertures for switches, they offer seamless and efficient operation for a wide variety of applications from intercom panels to rack panel facias. We offer customisation options to meet your specific industrial, technological, or equipment needs.

Process
It's as easy as 123
 | Let’s get started with your Ideas, the more detail you provide the better! |
 | We’ll email or phone you to talk it through, give advice and provide a quote. |
 | It’s then over to us to create and amend artwork and you to pay the deposit. |
 | If you provide the artwork, we’ll pre-flight check it for you and you pay the deposit |
 | With your approval, we’ll get cracking on with the production. |
 | We’ll soon be back in touch to arrange fitting/delivery/collection. We will never proceed with production until you are entirely happy with the artwork and will always provide a proof (unless the artwork is supplied by you). |
