Changes the room mood
This finish shifts how the stainless steel surface reads, from warmer and softer to cleaner and more reflective.

Substrate: 304 austenitic stainless steel, conforming to ASTM A240-23a (Cr: 18.0-20.0%, Ni: 8.0-10.5%, max C: 0.08%) and EN 10088-2:2014 Grade 1.4301. Tensile strength: 520-720 MPa (ASTM A240); yield strength: ≥205 MPa; elongation: ≥40%.
Surface architecture: Single-layer 80-120 μm dry powder epoxy-polyester hybrid coating (TGIC-free) applied via corona discharge electrostatic spray at 60-80 kV. The 3D wood-grain pattern derives from sublimation transfer using 12-18 μm PET carrier film (sourced from Hanwha TotalEnergies Chemical, South Korea) with solvent-free pigment dispersion.

Overview
Film alignment tolerance: ±0.5 mm across 3,000 mm panel length.
Bonding mechanism: Powder gelation at 140°C; crosslinking completion at 220°C ±2°C oven dwell (4.5 minutes at peak temperature). This creates interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) adhesion between steel oxide layer and transferred grain matrix, eliminating the adhesive interface found in laminate systems (typical HPL: urea-formaldehyde resin, 0.3-1.5 mg/L formaldehyde emission per EN 717-1).

Material note
The finish changes what you see and touch, while the stainless steel body underneath continues to carry the system.
Material note
The right finish depends on light, touch frequency, maintenance expectations, and how decorative the room should feel.
