» Any Shape
Cladding Panels, 3D Lettering and Art forms. Any shape that is possible to achieve by cutting, folding and welding de carbonized VE Steel.
» Vivid Colors
Glass-like bold or pastel colors with varied gloss levels. Colors can be matched to most colors from RAL Design or Pantone color charts or matched to hard samples from existing vitreous enamel cladding.
» High Gloss
Vitreous enamel is a naturally glossy, non-porous and non stick surface. Typical gloss levels range from Low Gloss 60% to High Gloss 90%.
» VE Prints
Vitreous enamel pastes are silkscreened or masked to create sharp and high resolution multicolored graphics which are fired and fused to the panel, lettering or sculpture at 800⁰ Celsius. Images are vitreous enamel therefore have the same durability as any VE plain color. Dubbed VE “Supergraphics” for a good reason, because of their excellent durability.
» Hygienic
Vitreous enamel graphics and writing surfaces are completely non porous. Harmful bacteria cannot be absorbed. The non stick, smooth surface is sterilized extremely easily. Because of the extreme hardness of VE this -hygienic quality does not deteriorate and the graphic or surface remains sterile and safe. VE is non-static therefore it does not attract dust or allergens.
» Fireproof
Architectural VE panels will, depending on the design and the nature of the backing materials, provide fire ratings of a min. of two hours. Higher fire ratings can be achieved. No staining even from open flame. No toxic fumes are released during fire.
» Non Porous
Like glass, vitreous enamel is completely non porous which prevents harmful bacteria or residual chemicals from being absorbed into the enamel surface. When an enamel surface is cleaned with anti-bacterial solutions it is truly sterile and germ free.
» No "Ghosting"
The ability to clean writing surfaces easily deteriorates with age. Faint marks are left behind when the surface is cleaned as a result of light or heavy surface scratching. Vitreous enamel has extreme surface hardness and is completely non porous. These qualities ensure there is no ghosting at all on VE writing surfaces even after 15years of regular use. VE writing surfaces outlast and outperform all other writing surfaces in this regard.
» Grafitti Proof
Non stick, non porous, chemical resistant, extremely hard and color fast. This combination of qualities is unique to vitreous enamel and enables complete removal of paint or permanent markers using thinners without damaging the VE color or surface. Any mistakes with permanent markers or oil paints on VE writing walls are no problem at all.
» Electrical Safety
Non static, resistant to fire and resistant to electrical currents. These qualities makes VE Signage excellent for industrial use and safe for writing surfaces. Dielectric strength of ordinary vitreous enamels will range from 200 to 500 volts per mil with an average of 4 to 6 mils total thickness.
» Non stick, easy to clean
High lubricity, non stick and non porous make it very easy to clean.
» Environmentally Safe
The production of VE panels is an ecologically friendly process that does not involve harmful substances. The panels are made from non toxic materials including glass, steel and calcium silicate. All materials are not harmful to the environment and are recyclable. The VE coating increases the lifespan of the original steel many times thereby reducing waste and the number of times the steel needs to be reprocessed. VE Panels release no toxic fumes in the event of a fire.
» High Abrasion Resistance
A combination of very high lubricity and extreme surface hardness gives VE “Supergraphics” and VE “Writing Walls” unusually high abrasive resistance when compared to other graphics and surfaces. On the Moh. Hardness Scale : Diamond =10, Painted Steel = 2.5 HPDL Formica (Non-magnetic) writing surface = 2.5-3 and Painted Steel (Magnetic) writing surface = 3 Vitreous Enamel = 5.5 to 6. For writing surfaces high abrasive resistance is extremely important in ensuring high performance and a long life. VE is unrivalled. Similarly vitreous enamel “supergraphics” have extraordinary abrasive resistance when compared to other graphic surfaces.
» High Impact Resistance
The physical strength of the steel, coating and panel backing enable vitreous enameled panels to withstand deformation and damage due to impact. Panels are quick to install and easily replaced.
