Sanford Process is at the forefront of patented innovation in anodizing aluminum, having developed the first low voltage aluminum hard anodizing system and more recently a micro-crystalline anodizing process. MICRALOX produces a long-lasting, virtually indestructible surface that delivers dramatically superior chemical corrosion resistance and eliminates color fading resulting from super-heated steam sterilization. Sanford is also the developer of SANFORD PRINT, a permanent marking achieved by embedding ink deep into an aluminum hard coat. Sanford Process licenses technologies and provides contract development work on an exclusive or non-exclusive basis. Sanford delivers validated process and product design solutions with detailed operating instructions, and can also arrange complete part processing through our sister company, DCHN LLC (www.d-chn.com). Sanford Process Corporation is part of the metal finishing division of Katahdin Industries Inc. (www.katahdin-inc.com). Katahdin provides high tolerance coating applications and specialized metal finishing technology and services to the medical device and industrial markets through platform-focused subsidiaries. .
