In Germany, INOX-COLOR colours stainless steel products according to the INOX-SPECTRAL® process up to a dimension of 6,000 x 1,200 x 2,000 mm (L x W x H).
In addition to refining stainless steel sheets, the INOX-SPECTRAL® process is also perfectly suited for the colour design of other premium stainless steel products.
Can be recognised by its classic form and the use of high quality materials. Sufaces of stainless steel which are coloured by using the INOX-SPECTRAL® process have all of the qualities which modern architecture needs: functionality, efficiency and aesthetics. Coloured surfaces made of stainless steel individual designs possible which enable dynamic colour scenarios and therefore create various perceptions and moods. Some advantages offered by coloured stainless steel are as follows: there are hardly any subsequent costs and it maintains the original optic, form and function. The refined material is one hundred percent recyclable. It saves cleaning, replacement and restoration costs over a very long period, like no other material.
This is the standard selection of all of the colours that can be produced using the INOX-SPECTRAL®-process:
champagne
gold
bronze
steel blue
cobalt blue
green
red
and the special color black
Intermediate colour shades are possible. For production reasons, minimum quantities are required.
In spite of sophisticated reproduction technology, the colour impressions can only be shown approximately. Sample cards with original patterns are available.
Electrochemical process: The INOX-SPECTRAL® process is a computer-controlled electrochemical process; no colour or pigments – coat of lacquer or any other coating as well - are applied, the transparent chromium oxide layer is built up.
Interference effect: The interference effect is used; depending on the thickness of the applied chromium oxide layer, the composition of the light spectrum and the angle of view, different colour effects develop.
Stainless steel character: Due to the small thickness of the chromium oxide layer, the structure of the coloured surfaces has an undiminished effect; retained are not only the functional material properties, but also the optical quality inherent in the stainless steel.
