PVD Finishes
With physical vapour deposition, a polished or satin-finish chrome handle is coated with an ulterior layer of metal (superfinishing) under high vacuum. Vacuum metallisation is extremely hard and durable. Nanocomposites of metal determine the specific colour of the surface and protect it from wear, scratches and aggressive substances such as humidity, sweat, salt spray, temperature swings and ultraviolet rays.
IS – SuperStainlessSteel satin
The colour is that of stainless steel, but the surface hardness obtained with the PVD process is much superior. Its elevated toughness makes this a high-tech finish particularly suited to use on doors in high-traffic locations.
