Colour is established by the metal incorporated into the matrix.
That integral material character makes scratches far less apparent than in materials with surface-applied or coated finishes.
PRODUCT FAMILY 01
Real Metal.
Cast into Texture.
Large-format, highly durable, 3D-textured architectural bonded cast-composite sheets, with real metal granules cast into a tough FRP matrix.
WHAT IS METALLIC BONDED?
Not merely coated.
Cast.
Metallic Bonded Surface is produced by casting metal granules into a tough, fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) matrix. Our advanced mould-making techniques assure perfect reproduction of every fine detail in the original patterned surface from casting to casting. Metallic Bonded is exclusive to S3 Surfaces.
Texture becomes part of the casting.
Patterns range from subtle textures to bold designs, reproduced through mould development and casting.
METAL + PATINA
Material first.
Finish follows.
Metallic Bonded patterns are available in Natural or Dark patinas, subject to the current specification table. A Dark patina heightens highlight-and-shadow contrast; Natural provides subtler tonal gradations. Gold-Bronze is available in Natural patina only.
