Metallic surfaces have been trending lately, and unlike a few years ago, there is a tendency to cover only part of the furniture with this type of surface, which is the case with the kitchen island. Instead, the rest of the room is designed, in contrast, with wood or stone decors or in matte solid colors. 

Ostermann in its rich range of edgings, has of course also edgings suitable for metal surfaces: these are ABS edgings with real metal leaf in silver, gold, stainless steel color, mirror, brushed or matte. And they offer a great advantage: they are as easy to work with as traditional ABS edgings and, thanks to the real metal coating, blend in perfectly with the panel.

In addition to edges with real aluminum foil, Ostermann provides pure ABS edges with metallic effect color

Edges for a grooved effect 

Doors with grooved surfaces in solid color, wood decor or stone effect today are often combined with metallic surfaces. To meet these requirements, Ostermann experts recommend the 3D grooved silver acrylic 3D edge, which is particularly suitable for metal surfaces and gives a subtle grooved effect. The base material of the edge is acrylic, which allows a decorative print to shine through at the bottom. Due to the grooved acrylic surface, the edge blends with the metal surface not only visually, but also on a tactile level. 

Edging for a brushed metal effect 

For metal surfaces, the brushed version is the standard: it resists scratches and fingerprints more and provides a subtle play of light and shadow. To give a modern design effect, simply combine the new metallic color shades with darker walnut or oak wood decors. Ostermann has three interesting edgings in its assortment for making this type of furniture: brushed gold aluminum, brushed stainless steel aluminum, and brushed silver aluminum.

Mirror finish or matte finish 

The mirrored surfaces of chrome-effect ABS edge and shiny gold aluminum, on the other hand, give the individual piece a unique shine. Doors with this finish can be combined with dark or light woods, dark and matte solids, or even glossy white. Combining with marble or concrete effect decors generates a particularly elegant effect. If you opt instead for a smooth, matte edge, Ostermann experts recommend the ABS aluminum silver matte edge that can be easily matched with all colors and decors.

Ostermann, in addition to edging, also supplies furniture doors with real aluminum surface
