AZZURRI CARBON FRAME– R&D

At AZZURRI we have a no compromise policy. What that means, is AZZURRi has a clear dedication to design. We have been able to create a Performance, value for money range of bicycles, without mixing group-sets or compromising on frame materials, processes, research, development and parts.

This no mix policy is evident as soon as you view one of our bicycles, what you will also learn as you own one of our premium  bicycles, is that this no mixing no compromise policy filters to the very last fibre that AZZURRI premium frames are made from.

The Engineers at AZZURRI are passionate about what they do.

Our engineers at AZZURRI not only design our premium range of bicycles, they personally oversee all of the frame production processes. This allows them to give their stamp of approval and offer you AZZURRI’s “Lifetime frame guarantee”.

Once our engineers have designed the moulds the process of selecting quality carbon fibres, weaving them, then directionally layering them begins, HANDMADE layer upon layer.

Extreme care is taken to achieve what we have mastered and as we like to call it: “the Perfect Tri-Mix.” A harmonious balance between stiffness, lightweight and performance.

 

 
Carbon Frame Painting
Sandpapering for Paint Preparation

Abrasive sandpapering is used to prepare frames for adhesiveness and paint application.

AZZURRI demands are strict, therefore each Carbon frame must receive three coats of varnish to ensure that our premium bicycles not only ride great, they will look great long after you purchase your bicycle.

This triple varnishing increases your frames durability, and provides further protection to your frame.

 

 
 

Painting and Sticker Application

Each frame model we produce is designed to express the spirit of riding, therefore our in-house graphic designers aim to produce decals that add appeal and promote a feeling AZZURRI owners will enjoy.  Our decal ladies are artist, who visualize the end result. A steady hand and an eye for detail is a must.
 
 

Varnishing to Achieve Smooth, Clean Finish

Our high quality varnishing formula and processes ensure each frame has been hand-finished and carefully inspected by our experienced paint technicians. This process and durable coating is comparable to the durability used in the automotive industry.
 
 

Environmentally Responsible

During the frame painting process, excessive paints are sucked out of the paint rooms through air pumping. If these chemical wastes are not treated carefully, it would immediately cause air pollution to the environment.

At AZZURRI we are committed to our responsibility to the environment, and all of the paint wastes are filtered through our systematic washing filter plant for chemical and toxin purification, prior to the exhaustion filtering.

 
 

Curing & Drying Process

The varnish remains liquid even after the solvent evaporates, but quickly begins to cure, undergoing the following stages: from oil liquid to “dry to touch.” The drying and curing time for each frame is controlled in a dust-free curing room in which humidity and temperature are strictly maintained to create an environment ideal for a quality finish. The frames stay in this environment before they arrive at the final heating rooms.
 
 

Heating Room Facility

When the curing process is complete, these carbon frames are then transferred to the heating and hardening rooms. This process makes sure all frames are ready for a durable life.
