Decorative coatings
Also products from conventional steels, alloys and even plastics can have a bright golden look. Decorative coatings can be successfully deposited on products and parts to highly improve their appearance and thus increase the aesthetical value. More important, the hard PVD coatings are scratch and wear resistant and thus ensure a perfect look even after long and intense use. The quality of the coating is represented also by the uniformity of the film.
Decorative coatings with various metallic colors can be used in many application, like automotive, architecture, household and luxury goods (jewelry, watches, glasses, etc.).
Other specialized applications of functional coatings developed by STATON
There are many other demanding applications for functional PVD coatings with superior quality. Corrosion and oxidation resistance in harsh environments is the great advantage of our specially designed CRONAL coating. For example, it has been successfully used to coat parts of hand guns. Independent tests showed that the CRONAL coating performed better as a common galvanic Ni coating.
