Plating & Anodising
Our in house plating and anodising plant makes available a wide variety of finishes to suit customer
requirements. Polished brass or steel material can be nickel or chrome plated. Polished brass or steel can be
lacquered to offer light protection to the finished product. Aluminium can be anodised or etched and anodised
to give a satin finish in a choice of silver, gold, black or bronze.
The chrome plating process requires the product to undergo a three part cleaning process, nickel plating and
finally chrome plating. The chrome used is environmentally friendly trivalent chrome. The process does not
involve heavy metals and is safe both for production staff and the environment. This electroplating plant was
commissioned in 2002 and reinforces Savekers' unique position in the UK, giving us the capacity, production
capability and skills to manufacture and finish products entirely in house and on one site.

Other Processes
Other processes include fabrication by our skilled metalworkers, which is ideal for specially manufactured
items such as barriers, rails and handles. Our cutting department utilises a variety of automatic, semi
automatic and manual saws to cut materials to length prior to further manufacturing process being carried out.
Milling, drilling, pressing and flow drilling (which gives a stronger finished fixing) are all undertaken on
site. Our dedicated assembly team ensures that goods are assembled, inspected and prepared for despatch,
together with the appropriate paperwork.
