With enamelled steels, architects and designers have an opportunity to create enduring colourful designs for contemporary architectural projects. Steel contributes to the mechanical strength and formability, while enamel provides durability and a beautiful glossy appearance.
Enamelled steels are a unique range of solutions with:
Perfect flatness of the facade envelope & a surface free of any defects after enamel firing due to specific steel grades recommended by ArcelorMittal Europe
Very good chemical resistance
Excellent resistance to abrasion and scratching
Outstanding resistance to corrosion and ultraviolet (UV) light
Resistance to the effects of atmospheric pollution & fire resistance
Hygiene & ease of cleaning characteristics
Resistance to harsh weather conditions; enamelled panels are insensitive to extreme cold (-50°C) and very hot temperatures (above 50°C)
A wide array of colours and finishes
Enamelled steels can be used in the interiors of public places like railway or metro stations, but also airports, shopping centres, and even hospitals.
Enamelled steels can offer a virtually unlimited scope for architectural panels and building facades with remarkable durability and sustainability performances.
Enamelled steel used in facade, architectural panels, or tunnel siding is a material that fully meets modern-day expectations in terms of durability, iconic aesthetics, hygiene, and respect for the environment.
Enamelled steel grades recommended by ArcelorMittal for these applications are mainly:
