ECO-ETCH®

Technical Information

Note: Because computer monitors and printers render colors and textures differently, actual finishes may vary slightly from those shown here.

Beautiful etched designs are applied to Stainless Steel and Fused Metal® using an advanced photolithographic bead-blasting system instead of acids or other harmful chemicals. Eco-Etch patterns are available on many Forms+Surfaces products including Doors, CabForms® Elevator Interiors, CabForms Elevator Door Skins, Wall Systems, Column Covers, Litter Receptacles, and Silhouette™ Railing System infill. In addition to our standard etched designs, custom etching is available to apply logos or other project-specific artwork.

  • Our Eco-Etch system can handle materials up to 2 meters wide x 6 meters long
  • Physical etching can be completed in a fraction of the time required for traditional chemical etching
  • Computer control ensures even blast pressure and consistent etch depth, even on the largest surfaces
  • Eco-Etch is physically applied and does not require etching acid or other harmful chemicals
  • No toxic waste is generated
  • The mask used to create the etched designs is removed using water alone
  • The beads used are contained within a closed chamber and are recycled and returned to the process for reuse
