Architectural Finishes (Peentex)

PEENTEX is a decorative textured finish applied by controlled shot peening which enhances metal components in architectural applications both aesthetically and practically.

PEENTEX hardens the metals surface, substantially improving wear resistance, prevents scratches and provides some resistance to graffiti. In addition the surface produced provides a finish which diffuses direct light and glare thus disguising finger prints and mild blemishes.

Controlled Shot Peening provides an engineered surface and improves resistance to stress corrosion cracking and intergranular corrosion.

The degree and consistency of texture depends on the base material and condition, size of media, media material and the energy that the media possesses at the point of impact with the metal substrate.
