Manchester Anodised Aluminium
United Anodisers is the trusted choice for architects, engineers and designers across Manchester and the wider North West. Choose from the widest range of anodised aluminium colours and finishes, delivered with the technical expertise and service quality your project demands.



















Anodised finishes for Manchester buildings
Manchester is one of the UK's most ambitious cities for architecture and urban development, and the materials specified today need to perform for decades to come. Architects, developers and contractors face the dual challenge of meeting ambitious design briefs while delivering longevity and compliance, and many coatings and finishes fall short.
Our anodised aluminium finishes have been specified on prestigious projects across Manchester and the North West for good reason. With 60+ years of experience and a QUALANOD licence held since 1976, we bring unmatched technical capability to every project. Post-survey inspections of our finishes have revealed no deterioration in the anodising film protection after decades of service life, a record no other European anodiser can match.
Fade-free anodised aluminium finishes for Manchester's built environment
Manchester's urban environment demands finishes that can handle everything from persistent rainfall and pollution to the intense solar exposure of south-facing facades. Many of our colours are completely fade-free — not just fade-resistant — making them ideal across a wide range of applications in the city and surrounding region, including:
- Commercial & office developments – cladding, curtain wall, column casings
- Residential & mixed-use schemes – balconies, rainscreen cladding, window surrounds
- Public sector & education buildings – facades, entrance features, brise soleil
- Retail & leisure developments – shopfronts, canopies, interior architectural features
- Transport & infrastructure – stations, bridges, covered walkways
Choose from dozens of colours and finishes.
Harness the aesthetic potential of anodised aluminium with more than 40+ standard colours and a wide range of finishes available, including gloss, patterns, perforations and more. We can also help you create a unique, bespoke finish to your exact specifications to put your signature on the project.
No matter how complex your idea is, we can help you achieve your design ambitions and create a project which exceeds expectations.
Our team has decades of experience and can provide expert advice on selecting the appropriate finish and colour to achieve the aesthetic you desire.
