SURFACE FINISHING
Enhancing the aesthetics, durability and functionality of fabricated metal assemblies
Utilising advanced processes and dedicated facilities, Berry & Escott offer a range of metal surface finishing & cleaning techniques to protect, enhance & restore a variety of metal surfaces.
Bead Blasting
Bead Blasting is a metal surface finishing treatment used by Berry & Escott. The process utilises round beads of glass media driven by air through specially designed nozzles at the material surface.
This will result in a clean, bright, satin, uniform surface finish on complex shapes, with minimal dimensional change or removal of material from the component.
Bead Blasting produces a more aesthetically appealing finish than other processes which makes it suitable as a final finish on many components.
Alongside Bead Blasting, Berry & Escott offer a range of metal surface finishes to meet the operational needs of customers in a broad range of sectors.

- Greater durability of finish
