1. Understated Gray Matte Texture for Calm Luxury
The Sandblasted Gray Titanium Matte Stainless Steel Plate (available in 201, 304, 430 grades) brings a serene, high-end vibe to architectural spaces. Its 喷砂 (sandblasted) surface creates a fine, non-reflective matte texture that avoids glare, while the gray titanium coating adds a soft, earthy-gray tone—steering clear of the coldness of bright metals. This combination balances subtlety and elegance, making it ideal for spaces like boutique hotel lobbies, minimalist residential living walls, or corporate reception areas. It pairs seamlessly with warm neutrals (beige, oak) for coziness and cool tones (slate, charcoal) for modernity, standing out as a low-key statement material unlike glossy or bright-finish steel.
2. Grade-Specific Durability for Targeted Needs
Crafted across 201, 304, and 430 stainless steel grades, this plate delivers tailored performance for diverse scenarios. The 304 grade offers strong corrosion resistance, perfect for humid indoor areas (e.g., bathroom wall cladding, kitchen backsplashes) where moisture is a concern. 201 grade provides cost-effective durability for dry, low-traffic spaces like residential accent panels, while 430 grade ensures reliable rust resistance for general indoor use (e.g., retail display fixtures). All grades feature a scratch-hiding 喷砂 matte finish, and maintenance is simple: a soft dry cloth wipes away dust, and mild soap + water cleans stains—no specialized products needed.
3. Flexible Fabrication for Versatile Installations
Designed for adaptability, this plate suits varied architectural demands across all grades. It comes in standard sizes (1220x2440mm) and can be easily cut, bent, or shaped into custom forms—curved partitions, ceiling trim, or cabinet fronts—without damaging its matte texture. Its lightweight design eases transportation and on-site installation, cutting labor time and costs. Additionally, it complements other materials beautifully: pairing with frosted glass boosts modernity, combining with natural stone adds depth, and integrating warm LED strips enhances its gray tone—making it a versatile pick for commercial, hospitality, and residential projects.

PVD Colored Stainless Steel Sheet Production Process
The production of colored stainless steel sheets via PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) involves three core stages: pre-treatment, PVD coating deposition, and post-treatment, with strict parameter control throughout.
1. Pre-Treatment (Substrate Preparation)
This stage ensures a clean, smooth surface for coating adhesion.
Cutting & Polishing: Cut stainless steel coils/plates to required dimensions via laser or shearing. Polish with abrasive belts/wheels to achieve finishes like mirror, brushed, or matte, and remove minor scratches.
Cleaning: First, degrease with alkaline/solvent solutions to eliminate oil and fingerprints. Then, pickle with nitric-hydrofluoric acid to remove oxide layers and polishing residues. Finally, rinse with deionized water and dry with hot air/infrared to avoid water spots.
2. PVD Coating Deposition (Color Formation Core)
Completed in a high-vacuum chamber to ensure coating quality.
Vacuum Setup: Load dried substrates into the chamber, then pump to 10⁻³–10⁻⁵ Pa (high vacuum). Heat substrates to 150–300°C and use argon ion bombardment for deep cleaning.
Target Sputtering & Reaction: Select targets based on color (e.g., titanium for gold, chromium for silver). Use magnetron sputtering (plasma bombards targets to release atoms) or arc ion plating (electric arc melts targets) to vaporize targets. Introduce reactive gases (nitrogen for nitrides, oxygen for oxides); target atoms react with gases to form colored compound films (e.g., TiN for rose gold) on substrates.
Thickness Control: Monitor via a quartz crystal sensor to keep coating thickness at 0.1–1 μm (too thin = poor fastness; too thick = brittleness).
3. Post-Treatment & Inspection
This stage enhances performance and ensures compliance.
Cooling & Finishing: Cool the chamber to room temperature, release vacuum, and unload. Optionally, lightly polish coated surfaces for better gloss.
Quality Checks: Test coating hardness (≥2000 HV via Vickers tester) and adhesion (no peeling via cross-cut tester). Use a spectrophotometer to verify color consistency (ΔE ≤ 1 vs. standards).
Packaging: Wrap qualified sheets in anti-scratch film, then pack in cartons/wooden pallets for transport.
Advantage
This plate's key benefit is its ability to deliver a modern, understated elegance that excels in minimalist and organic design schemes. The Sandblasted Gray Titanium finish creates a soft, stone-like matte texture that diffuses light beautifully, reducing glare and creating a calm, sophisticated atmosphere. Unlike more reflective surfaces, this subtle gray tone provides exceptional visual comfort and seamlessly blends with natural materials like wood and stone. It offers a neutral, timeless aesthetic that enhances a space without dominating it, making it ideal for creating serene and cohesive environments from commercial interiors to residential feature walls.
The material is exceptionally practical for high-traffic and hygiene-sensitive applications. The matte texture is highly effective at concealing daily wear, including scuffs, smudges, and minor scratches, ensuring the surface maintains a consistently clean appearance with minimal upkeep. This robust surface integrity, combined with the corrosion resistance of the 304 and 430 grades, makes it a superior choice for areas like elevator interiors, public lobbies, hospital walls, and kitchen surfaces. It offers the durability of stainless steel while eliminating the frustration of maintaining a perfect, fingerprint-free shine.
A significant advantage is its project adaptability and cost-efficiency. With available grades including the more economical 201 and 430, it provides a durable and premium-looking solution for projects with tighter budgets, particularly in indoor settings where environmental stresses are lower. The neutral gray color is exceptionally versatile for large-scale applications, ensuring color consistency across batches and making panel matching straightforward. This combination of an accessible price point, consistent aesthetic, and robust performance makes it a strategically smart and versatile choice for achieving a high-quality, modern look across extensive surface areas without compromising on durability or design intent.
