Before Choosing A New Faucet,
THINK FINISH FIRST
New technology and an increasing appreciation for purposeful design in public
bathrooms have made the faucet an important feature in bathroom decor.
POLISHED CHROME
Resistant to rust and corrosion, Chrome is both cost-effective
and easy to clean.
The graceful Chrome-plated finish is created through
electroplating, which applies a liquid metal coating through
electro deposition. As the deposited metal fuses to the base
material, the refined and durable finish created is Stern’s
collection default.
MATT BLACK
Powder coating is a finishing process in which a coating is
applied electrostatically to a surface as a dry powder before
heat is used to finalize the coating. The powder forms chemical
bonds in the process creating a flexible, durable finish that is
highly resistant to corrosion, flaking and scratching.
Exceptionally versatile and easy to clean, powder coating does
not show dirt, water spots, or fingerprints.
STAINLESS STEEL AISI 316
Stainless steel faucets do not need finishing. The material itself
is the finish and it offers corrosion resistance, formability,
strength and easy maintenance. Combining elegant design
with vandal resistant features, now more resilient than ever, our
Stainless Steel AISI 316 series is long lasting even under the
harshest conditions.

industrial styles.
PVD COATING
PVD coating (physical vapor deposition) is the process
in which a solid material is vaporized in a vacuum
and deposited onto the surface of the fixture. These
compound materials are deposited atom by atom, forming
a thin, bonded, metal surface layer that greatly improves
appearance and durability.
