Nippon Kinzoku Launches Decorative Stainless Steel Finishes For Exterior Use

KUALA LUMPUR, July 1 (Bernama) -- Nippon Kinzoku Co Ltd, a manufacturer of cold-rolled stainless steel, has introduced its new "Decorative Stainless Steel Finishes for Exterior Use".

The premium cold-rolled stainless steel strips, widely used in automotive mouldings and telecommunications enclosures, are designed to help manufacturers eliminate post-processing steps while significantly reducing their environmental footprint.

According to Nippon Kinzoku in a statement, the new product line offers a wide range of aesthetic options for automotive exterior trims and housings for smartphones and personal computers.

The company said its core strength lies in its "coil-to-coil" continuous processing technology, refined through decades of cold-rolling expertise, enabling it to deliver unique designs, consistent quality and high productivity.

The decorative finish is integrated directly into the material, eliminating the need for secondary polishing, painting and surface treatments, resulting in higher production yields and lower overall production costs.

In addition, the product line also helps reduce environmental impact by minimising carbon dioxide emissions through streamlined manufacturing processes. As an "Eco-Product", it supports the global transition towards carbon neutrality by 2050.

The company said standard 2D (annealed and pickled) and 2B (skin-passed) finishes are also available while offering customised combinations of different finishes to create bespoke textures.
