The color is produced by an electrochemical process that creates a thin layer of chrome oxide on the stainless steel. By varying the thickness of the oxide coating, colors ranging from Champagne, Bronze, Blue, Gold to Black are achieved. The colors will not crack, haze or fade from U.V. rays. The colors are primarily produced on Mirror polished 304 grade stainless steel.
Colored stainless is custom made to order.
Colored stainless steel has been used for sculptures, elevator doors, walls and ceilings, column covers, railings, signage, decorative trim, and medical parts. The standard patterns on the prime side of the stainless range from leather grain, diamonds, linen, parquet, swirls to small squares.
