Aluminum Frames
Aluminum Frames, Will not rust or corrode. All of Wanda Tech’s powder coated aluminum frames feature the most durable finish on the market. This finish resists scratching, blistering, chipping and peeling in normal use. Our Umbrella frames are Grade A Anodized Aluminum. That means we use only the best material. All frames are constructed from ingots and raw materials.
Anodized
Anodized Aluminum is electrochemical process that thickens and toughens the naturally occurring protective oxide. Anodized finishes have made aluminum one of the most respected and widely used materials today in the production of Patio Umbrella’s and Patio furniture. Anodizing offers a large increasing number of gloss and color alternatives and minimizes or eliminates color variations. Unlike other finishes, anodizing allows the aluminum to maintain its metallic appearance.
Powder Coating
Powder coating is a method of applying a decorative and protective finish. The powder used for the process is a mixture of finely ground particles of pigment and resin, which is sprayed with a special spray gun that electrostatically charges the powder. The charged powder particles adhere to the electrically grounded parts until heated and fuse into a smooth coating in a curing oven. Resulting in a smooth continuous coating that is highly durable, scratch and chip resistant.
PU Coating (Polyurethane Coating) (Apply on umbrella frame)
Once the Powder Coating process is completed Polyurethane is then applied to the frames. Polyurethane is an incredibly resilient, flexible, and durable manufactured material that can take the place of paint. Polyurethane coatings not only protect the finish from harmful elements but also product look better and last longer. It is the best in the industry to apply on the aluminum frame.
