"Metal Print" surfaces are crosslinked in nature, meaning there are no open or closed pores, so you can easily and thoroughly clean them with a variety of cleaners and disinfecting chemicals.
The chemical process that links polymer chains together is known as crosslinking.
As the aluminum panels travel down their coating line, they reach a point in the labs proprietary process where a chemical reaction causes the polymers of the coating to join together (crosslinking!). As all the polymer strings are joined together end-to-end, they form one long and stable polymer string. The 100% crosslinked polymers in the final product is why Metal Prints have amazing durability, scratch resistance, chemical and stain resistance, and color retention, fade resistance, and more. They are the ideal choice for spaces that demand the utmost hygienic cleanability and safety requirements possible, to ensure a safe environment for all who occupy the vicinity or make contact with the prints.
