Titanium Color Coating (PVD)
Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) is a technology of sputtering Titanium ions in a high vacuum chamber under strict conditions. It creates a tough 0.3µm. metal-ceramic film (Hardness 1600-1800 HV) of rich colors on stainless steel. Our vast expertise in production makes us the world’s top quality producer. All our PVD colored items installed since 30 years, still stay intact.
PVD types and colors
Types: TiN, ZrN, CrN, TiAlN, TiC, TiCN, TiO, etc.
We have set 12 standard colors and we can tune up each of them to a darker or lighter shade, to match client’s requirement. Champagne color can be tuned to a pale Platinum color. Gold to Dark Gold. Black to a rare and darkest Piano Black color.
Our PVD coating have passed 1,000 hrs. of Salt Spray test.
PVD coating’s compliance.
For undisputed color accuracy, we control each color’s corresponding figures at 9 points on each sheet, by a color rating tool (Spectrophotometer) This allows us to make sure that the color of every sheet is the same.
We welcome our clients to visit our factory to see the whole production process.
Important aspect
The specifics of PVD coating is that the layer will not adhere properly to a surface area contaminated even with a slightest trace of oil, dust particles, PE marks, finger marks, water marks, etc.
Rigorous cleaning of sheets prior to the PVD coating is the most important aspect in achieving a strong and stable bound of a PVD layer to the surface of stainless steel.
Cleaning
Our cleaning line is 48m. long and consists of Acid bath, Ultrasonic cleaning, 2 stages of manual wash, air knives drying and a QC checking station, prior to PVD coating.
After the PVD process, the sheets are cleaned again, to remove any tiniest dust particles and to lower the temperature of the PVD layer to stabilize it.
During the whole production process, material never touch the floor at our factory.
Technical Data and Certification
Since 1991, we have made all kinds of testing on our PVD coated products, at various laboratories worldwide.
We have all the Data Sheets, MSDS, Test Reports, Certificates and iconic projects references necessary,
for your project approval.
