What is the PVD Coating Process?

The PVD coating process is a highly advanced technique which is designed around delivering a durable and aesthetically pleasing end product.

  • 1

    CLEANING

    To prevent defects, all products pass through our extensive cleaning line before coating. This process includes tanks for cleaning, rinsing and deionising. After cleaning, the products are dried and air deionised.

  • 2

    VACUUM CHAMBER

    Coating begins by placing the metal components into a vacuum chamber inside a cathodic arc PVD machine.

  • 3

    CREATION

    Within the machine, a compound is created and applied atom-by-atom to the component by allowing an electrical arc to vaporise a conductive metal target source and combining it with a combination of gases.

  • 4

    TESTING

    The process is never complete without rigorous and highly focused testing which ensures a consistent level of high-quality.
