(Please refer to our dimensional range).> We propose a standard widths range up to 1250 mm and further width up to 1500 mm are available on consultation.> The surface conforms to the EN 10088 2M.
Key strengths
> Good corrosion resistance.> Finger-print resistant..> Easy to clean.> No effect on finish after deep drawing.> Economic alternative to the sand blasted / bead blasted finishes resulting from additional surface treatment operations.> A surface finish aesthetically similar to that of Aluminium.
Applications
> Building: facade, street furniture, decorative components, etc. > Catering: worktops, cladding, etc> Household appliance: hoods, ovens and refrigerator cladding, hobs, dishwasher and tumble-dryer housing, etc.> Small appliance: coffee machines, barbecues, etc.> Lifts: cabins, doors, various decorative components, etc.> Sinks: bowls, draining boards, etc
Our recommendations
Coatings> We recommend the use of a coating to protect the surface during transport, storage and subsequent transforming operations.> The choice of coating is based on the requirements (ease of forming, laser cutting, etc.). Please do not hesitate to consult us for specific requests.> If coating is not required, we suggest paper interleaving in between the coil laps or sheets.

Our manufacturing process
UGINOX Sand is manufactured according to the typical stainless steel manufacturing process up to the rolling operation where the patterning process takes place. View all of the stainless steel manufacturing process on our website.
> This engraving operation is conducted with specially prepared cylinders on a bright annealed base (BA) and a tension leveller.> This engraving technique used enables both a uniform and reproductible finish for the different grades and dimensions.> This production method is certified to ISO 9001 and ISO 14001.
