FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What is VIBES, and what sets this finish apart from other brushed finishes?
VIBES is mirrorINOX’s proprietary brand for vibration-finished stainless steel surfaces. Unlike longitudinal or transverse finishes, it creates a uniform, non-directional finish with no visible grinding marks. This makes fingerprints and minor scratches virtually invisible, making VIBES particularly suitable for surfaces subject to direct contact.
In which industries is VIBES used?
Wherever surfaces are touched every day: kitchen construction, sanitary and wellness areas, elevators and escalators, food and pharmaceutical machinery, container and vessel construction, as well as architecture and façade construction. VIBES is suitable for both interior and exterior applications.
Which stainless steel grades does mirrorINOX process with vibration polishing?
We manufacture VIBES finishes in grades 1.4016, 1.4301, 1.4401, 1.4404, 1.4462, 1.4571.
What dimensions are possible for vibration finishing?
mirrorINOX grinds sheets up to 2,000 mm wide, 6,000 mm long and 30 mm thick—with sufficient capacity even for large façade projects. Surface roughness and gloss level are measured and documented for each sheet.
Can VIBES be combined with other processes?
Yes. Every VIBES finish can be combined with PVD/TiN coating in various colours or with nanoINOX® AFP/ETC. The transparent CLEAR nanoINOX® coating makes the surface more resistant to soiling and easier to clean—without altering the grain pattern. Ideal for elevators, railway stations and airports.
How does mirrorINOX ensure consistent quality for VIBES?
The surface roughness and gloss level of each individual sheet are measured and documented. This ensures maximum reproducibility—even for large production runs and repeat orders placed at a later date.
