Core Solutions

1. Aesthetic Sophistication + Practical Durability
   Resolves the conflict between premium vintage aesthetics and fragile materials: PVD molecular-level coating ensures fade-resistant bronze color (excellent UV stability) and scratch resistance. The hairline texture significantly reduces visible fingerprints and wear marks—ideal for high-traffic commercial spaces like hotels and retail stores.

2. Corrosion & Climate Resistance
   Based on 304/316L stainless steel substrates, it withstands harsh environments: coastal areas, high-humidity spaces (kitchens/spas), and pollution-exposed facades. Offers lower lifecycle costs than powder-coated metals or solid bronze.

3. Ultra-Low Maintenance Costs
   Eliminate repetitive refinishing! Surface requires only wiping with neutral cleaner—saving significant operational costs for facility management vs. regularly maintained brass or natural copper.

4. Flexible Fabrication Performance
   Standard sheet sizes (1220x2440mm/1500x3000mm; custom available) support:
   ✓ CNC Cutting ✓ Bending ✓ Welding (argon protection & post-weld touch-up required) ✓ Roll-forming

5. Sustainable Certification Advantages
   100% recyclable stainless steel base. PVD coating is more eco-friendly than electroplating. Supports LEED/BREEAM certification projects.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Will the bronze color fade? Is it suitable for outdoor use?
► PVD coating passes 2000-hr QUV aging tests. Indoor color retention ≥15 years. For outdoors, use 316L substrate and avoid direct exposure in strong acid rain areas.

Q2: Does welding damage the surface? How to repair?
► Welding heat causes discoloration in Heat-Affected Zones (HAZ):

• Solution ①: Use specialized touch-up paste after TIG welding (color-matching available)

• Solution ②: Design concealed welds or use mechanical connections

Q3: How effective is fingerprint resistance? Cleaning requirements?
► Hairline texture reduces fingerprint visibility by 70%. Daily maintenance:
Microfiber cloth + neutral cleaner + water → Avoid steel wool/strong acids

Q4: Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ) for international trade?
► Standard specs: 1 ton for 304 grade | Inquire for 316L/custom specifications

Q5: Cost advantages vs. solid bronze sheets?
► Price: 1/3 - 1/5 of solid bronze, plus:

• 60% weight reduction → Lower structural load

• Eliminates periodic waxing → Saves >$120/m² in 10-year maintenance

Q6: Can it be used for curtain wall facades?
► Conditions:
✓ Recommended: 316L substrate + back-ventilation design
✓ Sloped surfaces >15° (promotes self-cleaning)
✗ Prohibited for permanent water accumulation areas (e.g., canopy grooves)
