    Customised staircases in the upmarket sector are characterised by special structural features and their individual surface design. For metal staircases, a liquid metal coating offers completely new methods of surface refinement, which, compared to painting or cladding, allows for unique objects of exceptional quality. The innovative coating process with liquid metal provides a wide range of options regarding texture and design, whereby the metal skin always exhibits all the properties of metal in its look and haptics. Especially for sculptural staircase layouts, the three-dimensionality of the design can be realised through the seamlessly applied liquid metal. This takes the homogeneity of the sculptures to a completely new level and creates an artistic character. Depending on the processing system, the liquid metal is applied like a varnish or a filler and is suitable for flat as well as rounded and organic surfaces. Besides numerous types of metal and special alloys, various processes and techniques are also available for finishing the stair surfaces. Coating the entire stair construction with liquid metal results in a convincing sculptural effect, as the seamless coating is completely even and homogeneous. Of course, individual stair elements such as treads or stringers can also be covered with the real metal method.
