Alloy with a reduced content of carbon, universally recognised for the characteristics of hygiene and excellent resistance to the corrosion, particularly suitable for outdoor environments. Thanks to its chemical composition, stainless steel does not oxidize and does not rust in contact with external agents such as water and air. The natural protective film that stainless steel is equipped with makes the material resistant over time and always restorable. CEA products are entirely made with the aid of mechanical procedures that maintain unaltered the unique and extraordinary characteristics of the alloy. The stainless steel used for CEA production is not treated with either chrome plating or galvanic process, preserving the properties of an ecological, eco-friendly, completely recyclable and highly hygienic product.

Special finishes treatments, made on customer demand, are the result of an accurate work of chromatic choice and technological development that is based on a high thickness deposition of mixtures of zirconium powder and graphite. Through an evaporation process into vacuum chambers (plasma) the powders go from a vapor phase and then back to a thin film condensed phase. In this way the steel surface is even more resistant against cleaning agents and salty air, and makes the surfaces anti-scratch. In the Black Diamond finish the surface is also protected from calcareous deposits, thanks to the self-lubricating feature that allows you to keep the product clean longer. The CEA special finishes emphasize the unique properties of stainless steel, increasing the gloss and hardness of its surface. All CEA special finishes are ecological and biocompatible.

Color and nuance variations are not to be considered manufacturing defect, but a feature linked to the working process that keeps the material biocompatible and ecological. Chromatic variations in sense of nuances in color tone occur, due to the effect of the material’s oxygenation when exposed to the ambient air - effect found in particular in BRONZE and COPPER finishes. Color change creates the product’s depth and makes it
even more natural.

CEA chooses water-based varnishes, with low environmental impact, to protect and decorate the steel. While drying when in contact with the air, they create a thin, uninterrupted, strong and elastic protective film, which guarantees a high level of mechanical and chemical resistance and durability over time while respecting the environment. The water-based paints allow to reduce up to 90% the emissions of toxic powder resulting from solvent paints or other petroleum derivates. In addition, the waterbased varnishes are odourless and fire-proof. With the GASTONE collection, CEA offers a wide range of brilliant colours, matt finish, especially pleasant to the touch.
