Why specify PVD coated coloured stainless steel?
Durability
- Scratch resistant making it highly durable for high traffic and heavy- wear areas
- The PVD coating creates a tough finish which is approximately ten times harder than stainless steel itself
- UV-light stable, does not fade (not applicable to Gun Metal)
- Twelve year guarantee
Eco-friendly
Stainless steel material is 60% recycled and 100% recyclable.
Cost – effective
- Allows less expensive standard ranges to be specified with colour- matched workshop-fabricated items acting as feature pieces or as essential supplements to a cheaper range
- Can recolour existing fittings, components and lighting enabling re-utilisation of fixtures for new re-fits.
Formats
PVD coloured stainless steel is available in sheet and profile including V-Grooved and folded profiles.
Finishes
Also available:
- Embossed finishes, coloured and uncoloured.
- Anti-fingerprint finish.
A spectrum of colour options
- Can be colour-matched to other finishes and materials
- Can be specified in a wide spectrum of colours
- Mimics more expensive materials such as bronze, brass and gold providing a cost-effective, easy-maintenance alternative
Can be completely colourless for a natural stainless steel appearance
