Taps, soap dispensers, and other washroom accessories coated in a Physical Vapour Deposition finish continue to be a growing trend. The coating is hard-wearing which makes it an ideal finish for commercial washrooms.

PVD finishes are a popular choice loved by architects and designers, and offer an elegant satin brushed or mirror polished appearance that is both sustainable and durable.

Being a thin finish, PVD coatings for washroom products surprisingly demonstrate exceptional resilience against harsh chemical elements. To showcase its durability, this high-quality finish can be applied to coat components within a Formula 1 car and high-end watches, enhancing their endurance.

PVD colours and finish codes

We offer two PVD finish options, each available in seven beautiful colours which are available in a select range of Dolphin washroom products.

The two types of PVD coatings for washroom products include a satin brushed finish and a mirror polished finish.
