Manufacturing Process PVD – Physical Vapor Deposition Basis for each PVD surface is a galvanically generated chrome surface. In the middle of the chamber there is the target consisting of circon. During the coating process the chamber is filled up with nitrogen. Depending on the amount of nitrogen the most diverse surfaces can be generated. During the process an electric arc is going up and down the target. Due to the high heat build-up the circon evaporates. This steam, which merges with the nitrogen in the chamber, lies down on the different fitting parts. Circon-nitrite is an extremely tough substance. That is the reason why the surface is more resistant in comparison with galvanic surfaces. PVD advantages All finishes are manufactured with the PVD technology in our own production.
Advantages:
> Better scratch resistance
> Long-lasting brilliance of the surface
> Higher detergent resistance
> Higher corrosion resistance
> Various surface colors realizable
> Ecologically friendly process (no wastewater)
