Sand-Cast Solid Brass
One of the oldest casting processes, it is referred to as sand-casting process because the mould that contains the cavity into which the metal is poured is made of compressed or compacted sand. As a result of this, it creates a texture like no other handles, generating a sense of tactility that make it organic and natural to touch. Traditional sand-casting enables the mould to be used over and over again, generating a environmentally friendly result that not only reduces waste and toxins during the process, but also speeds up production time due to the mould’s ease of use making it the perfect choice for the eco-conscious consumer.
The solid brass material that is poured into the mould is equally as eco-friendly. Not only is it a strong and durable material that can withstand decay, rust or erosion, it can be recycled over an infinite amount of times, leaving behind less carbon footprint. It’s attractive, natural appearance similar to that of gold makes it a very sought after materials for a lot of decorative appearances. In addition to its anti-bacterial properties, solid brass is the perfect material to use for any house interior but especially the exterior because of its resistance to natural elements.
Maintenance
Please ensure that only a damp cloth is used with diluted, mild detergent to remove any stains or fingerprints. It is recommended that this be done regularly and incorporated into a general cleaning routine.
Do not use harsh solvents, abrasive cleaners or scourers on any of products. This may affect the thickness of protective coatings, such as plating, powder coating and lacquer.
Note: Powder-coated colour finishes may chip with rough handling, and therefore caution should be taken during maintenance and use
