Silver-coating – for medical and decorative purposes
To coat objects with silver usually serves two different functions.
- as an decorative upgrade, e.g. of cutlery, spectacles, fountain-pens and lifestyle-products
- as an antiseptic resp. antibacterial equipment. This is also called oligo-dynamic silver-coating, which applies to medical products for example.
For both purposes we coat objects with silver.
Benefits of an oligo-dynamic silver-coating
- Coated work pieces, made of high-grade steel or titanium for instance, are antiseptic and protect of the risk of post-surgical inflammation
- Silver-ions damage the bacteria cells and therefore have an antibacterial effect
- The products are very durable. On request the work pieces can be coated with a plasma layer after blasting and prior to silver coating. This additionally prolongs the durability.
A main benefit of our medical silver-coating: Thanks to a special process we are able to coat objects made of titanium.
Benefits of a decorative silver-coating
- We coat with pure silver (99.9 %)
- Different layer thicknesses can be applied – from 10 µm up to more than 20 µm
- The coated object is highly wear-protected and insensitive to dirt
- Silver-coated objects are protected better against corrosion
- Big, as well as small, work pieces can be coated with silver
For decorative purposes we coat jewellery like necklaces, rings and earrings, spectacle-frames and fountain-pens as well as cutlery with silver.
