Steel is an alloy of iron and carbon, with a carbon content of less than 2%. Steel has properties that vary depending on the chemical composition (quantity of carbon and quantity of other alloying elements), the thermosetting treatments and the production process. In order to ensure resistance to rust, Ethimo steel is subjected to a complex corrosion-protection and painting treatment. Thermosetting epoxy powders enriched with scratchproof material (Teflon) are used for painting. UV resistance is guaranteed for 10 years.
Cleaning and maintenance
The metal is extremely hardwearing and durable and does not require any special maintenance. It can be cleaned using a non-abrasive sponge or soft cloth, water and a non-corrosive detergent. Do not use abrasive sponges or aggressive products under any circumstances as these could damage the surface and compromise the rust-resistant layer. It is advisable not to leave plastic materials directly in contact with metal surfaces. The plastic could chemically alter the paint on the surface of the piece of furniture. To repair any scratches, request paint for touch-ups.
