Handmade Metal Finishes

Our metal finishes are applied by hand; therefore, the completed surface cannot be entirely uniform and may have an irregular finish. These small irregularities enhance the metals authentic appearance and give depth and feel to the overall effect. METALLFX metals are decorative and are not to be confused with solid metals of the type generally used for construction purposes. Architects and designers have found it cost-effective to specify the use of cheaper substrates coated with our patented noble metals to give the finished project the high-value effect desired.

Fire Rating Tests

Tests have been conducted by Virgin Atlantic covering the simultaneous determination of ignitability, flame propagation, heat release, smoke release, ignitability spread of flame and heat evolved smoke development. All the above tests have been passed. We use an IMO approved binder. Certificates are available on request.

Weathering Tests

Our metals have undergone tests conducted by Richhold Polymers. These accelerated weathering tests of 7800 hours are equivalent to 25 years. Under cyclic heat, rain, and humidity no form of film degradation is apparent for any of the systems and shows no film breakdown except for slight surface oxidisation that would be normally found in solid metals. The surface oxidisation can easily be removed with a light scouring with steel wool.
