BioChrome®
Ecological Chrome
BIOCHROME® is an exclusive Olivari finish that protects the environment.
In 2005, Olivari's Research and Development Department develops a unique method
for chrome-plating brass ecologically. Unlike the traditional manufacturing process,
the BIOCHROME® covering uses trivalent chrome instead of the common hexavalent
chrome, harmful to both health and the environment.
Our BIOCHROME® finish is suitable for green architecture and anywhere a low
environmental impact product is required.
Laboratory tests have shown that the greater thickness and uniformity of the BIOCHROME®
plating over traditional chrome-plating guarantee great resistance to wear and tear
and tarnishing.
Biochrome-plated products are recognizable because they have been laser hallmarked
with the BIO logo.
Every single handle can be traced because it provides the lot number and date of
manufacture.
