Excellent durability, great variety
of colors
There is no need of any transparent
protection layer over a PVD coating
PVD coatings are very thin, usually 0.5µm only. This process
involves the deposition of zirconium nitride, titanium nitride or other
combinations of metallic ions in high vacuum chambers.
PVD advantages are not limited to their great variety of colours and
types of finish, but also to the physical and chemical properties of
the deposited film. With an hardness exceeding the double of hard chrome,
PVD coatings resist to "scotch-brite", "CIF","VIM
powder", steel wool and to other abrasives commonly used in the
cleaning of decorative surfaces.
Zirconium Nitride (ZrN), Titanium Nitride (TiN), Titanium Carbonitride
(TiCN) and Aluminum Titanium Nitride (AlTiN) provide a much higher protection
than any other alternative process. These coatings are ultra hard, but
they don't peel out, don't scratch nor break and they keep their beauty
even under the most severe conditions of use.
Besides a great variety of standard colors, Prirev also offers personalized
colors and guarantee their reproducibility.
