The Zehnder Alban towel rail, previously only available in Stainless Steel Mirror, now boasts a new range of finishes – Brushed Black Chrome, Brushed Brass and Brushed Bronze – following the introduction of a new Physical Vapour Deposition (PVD) coating process.
PVD coatings, also known as thin-film coating, is a process in which a solid material, such as chrome or bronze, is vaporised in a vacuum and deposited onto the surface of the radiator tubes. These coatings are not simply metal layers, however, but a process whereby compound materials are deposited atom by atom onto the surface, forming a thin, bonded, metal or metal-ceramic surface layer that enhances the appearance of the radiator.
