General information

Short Summary
This company, with strong experience, based in more than 15 years of trajectory producing vitreous enamel panels and other materials, usually works for public works as road tunnels and metro stations, with a high-end product developed to last in time.

They are looking for an agent that promotes the same type of materials in the same sectors and/or a partner with the capacity of installing their product under outsourcing agreement.
Full Description
Vitreous enamel technology is based on the use of inorganic minerals (quartz, silicon, feldspar, etc) that get fused together with the sheet of steel when they are heated up to 830ÂșC. The result is a surface with the properties of glass (hardness, shine, luster) and the resistance of steel.

This company has developed a high-reflectance panel for its use in tunnels, helping reduce the consumption of electric energy in illumination. They have a certified hygienic panel for its use in public transport stations with a high flow of users. Overall is a high-end product that provides the infrastructure with a modern and functional look for as many years the client wants to keep it.

This material is now well known in a lot of countries, and its use increases as soon as the metro/tunnel management organisations get in touch with it. Therefore this company is looking for a partnership with a company/agent who is able to promote their product in the architectural or engineering studios that work for those sectors.

The company is also interested in collaborating with a company capable of installing the product in large projects since the installation may not be as general as it is with other materials.
Advantages and Innovations
The main properties of vitreous enamel have no equal in the cladding material area because of different aspects:

- The possibility of obtaining multiple finishes and custom graphic designs.
- The shine and luster the surface shows.
- It doesn't change with time or sun/climate exposition. (color never fades away)
- Hardness over 5 in Mohs' Scale.
- Fire resistance category up to A1.
- Different cores to provide the surface with a better look or extra fire resistance properties.

They also developed two brands:
- A panel with an extra-reflectance surface and a whole package of items to have a complete tunnel cladding solution. Always looking for energy savings and driving security.
- A panel that eradicates the 99% of microorganisms present on it. This passive protection remains immutable during the whole life of the panel.

The company technical office designs every single panel for its fit into place and get shipped away ready to be installed.

- Promote and spread the knowledge of this particular product.
- Prescribe the product in new projects.
- Install this material.

They would be also up to study new proposals, for example, to develop a new type of product out of our regular market using our vitreous enamel technology.
