Catalog excerpts

The look of rusted steel has long enjoyed a place in the built environment. From the raw integrity of industrial spaces to interior settings with an unexpected edge, each expression is unique and in high demand. Our Metallics collection showcases a commitment to innovation and creativity, featuring rough-hewn rusted steel complemented by delicate foils, metallic threads, and dynamic screen prints, with the environmental and performance qualities designers seek in products today.

Alchemy Revealed Few dare to work with naturally rusted materials that are heavy and unfriendly to the touch. Yet rust has an enduring appeal when alchemy reveals its organic character.

Authentic Rust Our new proprietary technique captures real rust without sacrificing its natural beauty. The vivid textures and subtle imperfections of rusted steel are safely preserved in our translucent Varia resin, allowing light to peek through the surface. Varia is lightweight, cleanable, heat-formable, and made from 40% recycled content. It's an ideal way to create a refined, organic look. Shown in Rust Oxide
