Anne Deacon Juhl

Passion for anodizing and aluminum surface finish

For 25 years my professional life has centered around aluminum and anodizing.

Anodizing has great advantages.

Firstly, it is the most sustainable surface finish of aluminum out there.

Secondly, anodizing (when done right) can make aluminum parts last a lifetime. A benefit to both you, your customers and the environment.

And thirdly, anodizing can make your products, buildings, airplanes etc. look beautiful.

I’ve seen almost everything that can go wrong in the anodizing process, or when you order parts from an anodizer and haven’t gotten your specifications right.

I’m here to use that experience in both theory and practice to help you make fantastic, durable products.

Reach out to me

This is how I work

To improve your anodizing results

I learn from the best

By working closely with laboratories and universities I’m able to give you an independent view and the newest knowledge to solve your problem.

Not only presenting but also learning from all the conferences and organizations I am a part of.

I convert high-tech knowledge into daily practice, so you can convert it into action.

I work with the best

Thanks to my large network in the anodizing world, I am able to help you create unique surface solutions.

By working with test laboratories I give you specific advice on how to solve your problem – not only a test report.

I work independently, but I always know who to call if something is at the edge of my expertise. We will find a solution.

I’m your extra eyes

I help you by looking at your anodizing process from a new angle, providing ideas and advice based on many years of experience.

I advise and talk with your anodizing supplier to get the best results for your unique anodized aluminum part.

And when you call AluConsult, you get me on the line.

Every. Single. Time.
