The Charm of Chemical Etching
Chemical etching is a process that uses acid to etch designs onto the metal surface, creating a permanent mark that does not fade or wear away. This method allows for intricate and detailed designs, making it a perfect choice for creating custom elevator interiors. At X-Metal, we exclusively use chemical etching, ensuring the highest quality and precision in our designs.
Mirror Etched Stainless Steel Sheets: Reflecting Elegance
Mirror etched stainless steel sheets take the aesthetic appeal to another level. These sheets undergo a non-directional and glossy #8 finish to eliminate surface imperfections, achieving a super reflective mirror-like appearance without additional coatings. However, the quality of the mirror finish used in elevators is higher than the standard #8 finish. Any imperfections and unflatness of stainless steel material can distort reflections, creating a funhouse mirror effect that can negatively impact the user experience. We ensure the flatness of our raw materials to prevent such issues, guaranteeing a flawless mirror finish for our elevator panels.
The Versatility of Stainless Steel Etched Sheets
Stainless steel etched sheets are not only limited to elevator decoration. They are also widely used in other architectural and ornamental projects, such as wall panels, coping, and trim. The ability to color these sheets before or after etching further expands their decorative potential, making them a versatile material in the design industry.Quality of Etched Sheets
At X-Metal, we pride ourselves on our commitment to quality. We understand that the quality of our products directly impacts the final look of your projects. That’s why we ensure every sheet that leaves our facility meets the highest standards of quality and craftsmanship.Elevator Sheets: Doors and Cabs
It’s important to note that elevator sheets are designed differently for doors and cabs. Sheets designed for doors often have a blank space in the middle, which is necessary for door frame processing. Regardless of the application, we ensure our sheets meet the specific requirements of each project.
