Matting

Matt and matte precious metal materials reflect the current zeitgeist and are modern eye-catchers that can be used as decorative design elements almost anywhere. The special value of matte materials comes from their soft appearance, which blends in perfectly with the respective surroundings - which in turn gain simple, clear elegance by breaking with a matte surface.

In terms of practicality, matte base materials are also convincing because, in contrast to glossy surfaces, no fingerprints or sanding marks remain on them.

Although more and more precious metal components and materials are now also available in matte form, they are usually shiny in their original form and thus appear less attractive to the eye due to the strong gloss effect. In order to give even individually manufactured and fabricated parts a matte finish, it requires the intermediate step of matting.

LES GRAVEURS offers the matting of all conceivable materials and thus enables the production of individualized components and products according to your wishes. The matte surface can be produced by different types of processes. All of them are based on the fact that the coating surface of the starting material is roughened. This leads to diffuse light scattering, which makes the surface appear matte. Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)
