Novelis SSL – The aesthetics of brushed stainless steel meet the lightness of aluminum 

Novelis SSL provides a structured aluminum surface for design applications.

Imitating a brushed stainless steel surface, this decorative finish opens up endless possibilities to manufacturers and designers who want the look of stainless steel, without the additional weight and maintenance demands. SSL structured surface anodized aluminum strikes the perfect balance.

Novelis SSL BF – Brushed finish for anodized aluminum sheet

Pre-anodized in light bronze and ready for processing, Novelis SSL BF increases the range of coil-anodized Novelis products. 

Compared to conventional Novelis SSL, the anodized coil product is the result of production developments using special rolling processes, offering an even more distinctive surface structure, both in appearance and feel.

Key Features of Novelis SSL & SSL BF

Novelis SSL uses high-quality anodizing aluminum, creating a protective aluminum oxide layer for strength and an attractive, durable finish. This product provides the visual appeal of stainless steel without the weight and maintenance concerns.

Customizable options are available, including surfaces without anodized layers, or with alternative alloys, upon request.
