MATERIALS & TECHNOLOGY
STEEL
The Steel, a material made to withstand the important demands of our public spaces, has a great aesthetic versatility because
of the diversity of colors that can be attributed to it and the flexibility of shapes and combinations with other materials.
Solid, durable and customizable, FREPAT’s steel furniture makes it possible to meet the diverse needs of architects, landscapers,
designers, and above all, current users.
CORTEN STEEL
Its strength and aesthetic characteristics make this steel more and more used by architects and designers. It is a wear-resistant steel
by the formation of a self-protective layer of oxides on the base metal. The protective patina of the surface is regenerated continuously
under the influence of atmospheric conditions.
Raw finished: The products delivered in raw Corten look like gray steel sheet. The characteristic Corten patina naturally forms
in the open air and is stabilized over time.
Shot-blast and oxidized finished: Steel undergoes an accelerated oxidation process. The appearance on delivery is already rusty.
Shot-blasted, oxidized and stabilized finished: Corten steel with a rusty appearance is artificially stabilized to avoid the risk of soiling
in the early stages.
AISI 316L or 304 Stainless Steel
They are alloy steels of iron and carbon with chromium which causes the formation of a protective layer of chromium oxide which gives
these steels their stainlessness. The finishes are brushed stainless steel, satin or matte.
Galvanizing is a protective treatment for steel against corrosion.
Painted Finish: Once the steel is galvanized, it can be painted. We work with high quality polyester paints that are powder coated.
This finish is very resistant to UV. On request, you can choose the color of your furniture according to the RAL available for outdoor.
You can choose an appearance painting that looks like Corten. Slate blue, black and Corten are the most resistant colors.
All products and paints used by us are listed and certified according to European standards.
