PVD stands for Physical Vapour Deposition, an advanced coating process used to create highly durable coloured finishes on tapware and bathroom fittings. Finishes such as Brushed Brass, Brushed Nickel, Brushed Gunmetal and Mirrored Black are created using this technology.
Physical Vapour Deposition is a vacuum coating process where a solid material is vaporised and bonded to the surface of the tapware at a molecular level. This creates an extremely strong, thin coating that becomes part of the surface rather than sitting on top like traditional coatings or electroplating.
Because the coating is applied at a molecular level, PVD finishes are highly resistant to corrosion, tarnishing, fading, and everyday wear. This makes PVD coated tapware an ideal choice for kitchens, bathrooms, and high-use areas where durability is important.
Another key benefit of PVD coating is colour longevity. Unlike painted or plated finishes, PVD colours are designed to maintain their appearance for many years without fading or discolouring when properly cared for.
Thanks to the strength and durability of this process, PVD coated tapware is backed by a 5-year finish warranty, in addition to our standard product warranty, giving you long-term confidence in both performance and appearance.
