Materials
Tropical Wood
It needs basic maintenance to maintain its factory appearance, however with low maintenance the wood ages well without losing structural properties, as it is highly resistant to rot, mold, fungus, insects, and is highly vandal resistant. Its density of 890 kg/m3 does not facilitate the creation of gravel and notches.
| One of the natural properties of tropical woods, including jatoba, is their gradual thickening and the opening and closing of pores depending on environmental conditions. The opening of pores occurs mainly on the front surfaces in the form of cracks, or on the surface in the form of long cracks. It is a phenomenon that depends on environmental conditions (temperature, air humidity), but in no case does it reduce the quality of the wood or prevent its use. Jatoba is also characterized by a wide variety of shades. |
The natural phenomena indicated do not constitute a defect and are not considered the subject of a claim. In the case of tropical jatoba wood used outdoors, the bending or twisting tolerance is 5mm / 1m in length. |
Materials
Steel
The basic material used for the manufacture of most of the components of the products is steel of class 11373 (S235JR) or better quality. Tolerances are in accordance with ISO 2768-1 “m”, quality of imperfections in accordance with EN 25817. «C».
|
Most steel parts are processed as follows:
CNC laser cutting
CNC bending
Galvanizing - different methods
Degreasing by washing at 80oC - iron phosphating (corrosion protection)
Achromatic passivation (cleaning with distilled water)
Drying at a temperature of 190oC for 10-20 minutes Electrostatic powder coating application |
Metallic finishes All our products go through a series of processes according to the type of material and use, in order to provide the highest quality and durability possible; the combination of these processes is a particular art achieved in years of experience, that only the right technology and raw materials allow it. The method of finishing is according to the model and part of the product: Hot dip galvanizing Metallization Zinc Paint Continuous galvanizing Electro-galvanized Polyester paint |
