Nippon Kinzoku Co., Ltd. Introduces New Decorative Stainless Steel Finishes for Exterior Use NIPPON KINZOKU CO., LTD. introduced its new "Decorative Stainless Steel Finishes for Exterior Use." These premium cold-rolled stainless steel strips—extensively used in automotive moldings and telecommunications enclosures—are engineered to help manufacturers eliminate post-processing steps such as polishing and painting, while significantly reducing their environmental footprint. FB (Fine Black): Delivers a deep, metallic black through light interference and absorption via an ultra-thin, transparent oxide film. The surface undergoes a specialized hardening treatment to ensure exceptional corrosion and wear resistance. M-FB (Matte Fine Black): A matte version of the FB finish developed to meet market demand for low-glare textures, adding a subdued, premium elegance to the FB series. BA5 (Bright Annealing): Our standard BA finish, utilizing proprietary technology, it achieves a superior luster compared to conventional bright annealing. PW (Pearly White): A satin-matte finish designed for a refined, "white" aesthetic and a calm, sophisticated texture. Available in a range (PW3–PW10) to suit different roughness requirements. NIPPON KINZOKU’s "Decorative Stainless Steel Finishes for Exterior Use" offer a diverse range of aesthetic options and are widely used in automotive exterior trims and housings for smartphones and mobile PCs. Our core strength is "coil-to-coil" continuous processing, a technology refined through decades of cold-rolling expertise. This enables us to deliver unique designs and consistent quality with high productivity. Since the decorative finish is integrated directly into the material, the products offer the following strategic advantages: Process Simplification: Eliminates the need for secondary polishing, painting, and surface treatments (e.g., anodizing), resulting in higher production yields and lower total costs. Reduced Environmental Impact: Minimizes CO2 emissions by streamlining manufacturing stages. As an "Eco-Product," this lineup supports the global transition to carbon neutrality by 2050. The following finishes are available to meet specific application requirements and design concepts: Standard 2D (annealed and pickled) and 2B (skin-passed) finishes are also available. We offer tailored customization by combining different finishes to create unique, bespoke textures. Announcement • Jun 03
