HighTech Finishing of Houston, Texas (Booth No. 479), has introduced several new, unique decorative plating finishes at the specific requests of clients. Its “Oil-rubbed Bronze” finish, for example, is the response to an inquiry from Airbus for a specific visual appearance. According to the U.S. company’s marketing vice president Rick Niefield, “The Oil-rubbed Bronze finish combines our electroplated product with a ‘cold staining’ process to achieve the desired look.”
Also new is “Spanish Bronze,” a derivative of Oil-rubbed Bronze but offering a more visible brushed pattern. The third decorative finish, called “Crescent Gold,” was developed after several European completion centers asked for an electroplated finish for use in executive/VIP cabins with a distinctive color and very accurate color consistency. It is now available in polished, satin, pearllite, frosted and hammertone textures.
