Pvd coated stainless steel sheet

Chapa de acero inoxidable revestida con PVD

Advanced Continuous Coating for Durable, Colorful Surfaces

PVD stands for Physical Vapor Deposition — a high-tech process where metal is vaporized in a vacuum and deposited as a thin, hard coating on stainless steel. This creates brilliant, scratch-resistant, and anti-corrosion color finishes like rose gold, black, and more.

Sanmei Metal uses an upgraded method called Single Sheet Continuous Coating, offering better quality than traditional coating lines.

Why Choose Sanmei Metal's Continuous PVD Coated Sheets?

Sanmei’s process is built around flying shear cutting and continuous PVD coating, ensuring more consistent color and superior flatness in large-volume orders. Combined with a nano-scale anti-fingerprint layer, this method delivers significantly better wear resistance (proven by over 1000 cycles in the MEK test) and visual stability compared to traditional static batch coating. It’s a more reliable solution for high-end architectural and home appliance applications.

How to Choose a Right Size for Your Decorative SS Sheets.

  1. Antes de comprar, debe estimar el peso total de la lámina decorativa terminada y la capacidad de carga del área de aplicación para evitar sobrecarga.

  2. Dado que las láminas decorativas se utilizan principalmente con fines estéticos, basta con un grosor menor, lo que no solo ahorra costes, sino que también cumple con los requisitos. Tanto para uso en interiores como en exteriores, el rango de grosor ideal para las láminas decorativas de acero inoxidable se encuentra entre 0,5 mm y 2,0 mm.
  • Las láminas con un grosor inferior a 0,5 mm son demasiado frágiles y pueden dañarse fácilmente durante su manipulación y fabricación.
  • Las láminas con un espesor superior a 2,0 mm son difíciles de procesar y su uso en aplicaciones prácticas supone un reto.

Is PVD the best coating?

Yes! PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) is one of the most durable coatings available. Unlike traditional electroplating, it offers:

  • Superior scratch resistance
  • Long-lasting color retention
  • Eco-friendly application without harmful chemicals

Is PVD stainless steel safe?

Yes, PVD-coated stainless steel is completely safe for food contact surfaces, making it ideal for kitchen equipment and restaurant interiors.

Is PVD coating expensive?

While PVD is more expensive than standard coatings, its exceptional durability and aesthetic appeal make it a cost-effective choice in the long run. It reduces maintenance costs and extends the product's lifespan.
