Professional finishing on wood and derivatives: spray painting, gloss and matt lacquering, brushing, vintage effect and gloss UV. Every surface becomes a work of precision.
The paint shop closes our in-house production cycle: the same piece we cut and assemble leaves finished, with no external steps and none of the dead time that moving work between suppliers involves. The same department works on a contract basis on items supplied by the client.
Any shade from the RAL chart, in gloss or matt finish. We can also start from a physical sample or from another supplier's colour reference.
A cycle cured with ultraviolet light: a hard, bright, stable surface, suited to tops and fronts subject to frequent contact.
Brushing opens the grain before the finish: the result is a surface that is textured to the touch and hides marks of use better.
Aged and distressed finishes for projects that call for a character that is not new, from themed retail to scenographic setups.
For a quotation we need the species or substrate, the total surface area, and the shade and finish required. If you do not have all the details, write to us anyway: we will work them out together.
Lacquering is the last operation and the one everyone sees. We run it in our own plant at Fontanelle, which is why we can answer for the whole chain: if a shade is off, it is our shade, not a supplier's.
We spray to any shade in the RAL range, gloss, satin or matt, plus UV gloss, brushing and polishing. The cycle is a full one — primer, intermediate sanding, top coat — on the individual piece.
Interior doors and stand doors lacquered leaf by leaf, in the shade dictated by whatever is already in the building.
Doors, drawer fronts, worktops, sides, shelves and boiserie for joineries and furniture makers, on a contract basis.
Hollow-core panels for trade-fair stands lacquered in the brand colour: a RAL code is reproducible, a film only approximates it.
We also finish parts produced elsewhere, once we have seen them: the substrate decides what the finish can achieve.
The choice is made by looking at the light in the room, not at a sample under a workshop lamp. A north-facing room with little daylight carries a light matt far better than a gloss, which turns grey without light to reflect.
| Sheen | Where it works | What to know |
|---|---|---|
| Matt | The most requested today. Absorbs light, no reflections, hides irregularities in the wall or panel behind it. | Shows fingerprints more around handles and grips. |
| Satin | The most balanced choice for everyday surfaces: a little reflection makes the surface easier to clean. | No mirror effect, no matt fragility — the default we suggest when there is no constraint. |
| Gloss | Amplifies space and reflects the room. | Unforgiving: it reveals every undulation in the substrate. It needs a surface prepared for that level. |
| UV gloss | Furniture fronts and components that must be very hard and brilliant. | A UV-cured cycle, closer to furniture production than to doors. |
If the reference has a RAL code, that is all we need. If it does not — a window frame painted years ago, an existing piece of furniture — send the physical sample: we identify the closest shade and tell you honestly how close it is. Between two adjacent RAL shades the difference shows on abutting surfaces and almost never on elements at opposite ends of a room. On a whole commission we confirm the match before the batch goes into production, not after.
Any shade in the RAL range, gloss, satin or matt, plus UV gloss for very hard, brilliant surfaces. The cycle — primer, intermediate sanding, top coat — is run in-house on the individual piece.
Yes: send the physical sample. We identify the closest shade and tell you honestly how close it is. On abutting surfaces the difference between two adjacent RAL shades shows; on elements at opposite ends of a room it almost never does.
Yes, once we have seen them. The substrate decides what a finish can achieve: on a poorly prepared or unstable surface even a perfect cycle will disappoint, and we prefer to say so before starting.
Six to eight weeks on doors in a RAL shade. The drying times inside the cycle cannot be compressed, which is why laminated products in standard sizes are always faster.
Satin is the most balanced for everyday surfaces. Matt is currently the most requested and hides irregularities better. Gloss is striking but reveals every undulation in the substrate, so it needs a surface prepared for that level.
A soft cloth and a neutral detergent. Solvents and abrasives dull a gloss finish and mark a matt one irreversibly.
