Application of
Vulkan Finishes
A Unique Process.
Vulkan finishes are liquids metal paints that can be applied to almost any solid surface, from MDF and wood to metal and composites, as well as to organic, free-form shapes. Thanks to the modular application techniques, sprayed, troweled, or brushed, the material adapts seamlessly to curves, contours, and sculptural designs. Any metal powder can be used, from aluminum, bronze, brass, zinc, tin, and copper to silver, gold, or custom blends that create unique tones and effects.
Innovation by Marc Heylen.
The technique was exclusively developed by founder Marc Heylen, who pioneered the process of blending fine metal powders with binders and hardeners. Vulkan produces these unique blends, which are then applied not by us, but by selected certified craftsmen trained in the method our technique. This ensures that every application results in a seamless and durable layer of real metal that becomes one with the material beneath.
From Raw Metal to Refined Artistry.
Ease of Application.
Our technique significantly simplifies the complexity of the finishing process, resulting in fewer steps and up to 50% time savings. This not only addresses the limited availability of skilled labor and rising labor costs, but also makes previously non-viable applications economically viable, opening up new creative and commercial possibilities.
The Poetry of Technique.
Our noble metal finishes are applied through a modular process, allowing infinite possibilities of expression. Whether sprayed, troweled, or brushed, each technique reveals a unique character, from subtle textures to bold, sculptural surfaces. This versatility empowers architects and designers to tailor every project with depth, precision, and unmistakable distinction.
The Final Touch.
Every surface can be refined with a choice of finishes, from clear lacquers and waxes to natural oxidations. These treatments define the level of sheen, from soft satin to luminous gloss, and ensure that each project carries its own distinctive signature and tailored sense of luxury.
Collaborations & Certified Craftsmen.
Vulkan develops and produces the finishes. The application itself is carried out by selected craftsmen. To guarantee flawless execution, we collaborate exclusively with trained professionals and invite them to become Certified Vulkan Applicators. Through dedicated training and partnership, craftsmen master the technique, ensuring that every project reflects the authenticity and refinement Vulkan stands for.
