The Peen Plus range of finishes is ideal for heavy pedestrian traffic areas and the finishes offer the following benefits:
• Completely non ferrous process resulting in no rust spots or inclusions
• Increased surface hardness of the material
• No need for additional coatings which are expensive to maintain, have a short shelf life and have a greater impact on the environment
• A proven lifetime guarantee finish
• Increased resilience to anti social behaviour.
• Increased resistance to corrosion
• Environmentally friendly as the material is fully recyclable
• A pleasing contemporary aesthetic look
• Low reflectivity
• Work hardened surface resulting in increased resilience to scratches |
 |
The architectural finishes are achieved utilising our expertise and fully automated shot peening equipment, ensuring a consistent and repeatable finish even on large surface areas and high volume projects

The Peen Plus finishes can be seen at many London Underground stations. There is also a handy presentation pack of Peen Plus swatch size samples available which is ideal for architects and fabricators’ libraries, if you would like a sample pack, please contact us
