FAQs
Gold‑look PVD more commonly uses materials like titanium nitride (TiN) or other metal alloys that mimic gold’s color and shine. These coatings are not real gold, but they offer superior hardness, scratch resistance, and corrosion resistance compared to traditional gold plating
Gold PVD coatings are exceptionally durable compared to traditional plating, but their actual lifespan depends on use and care. In general, you can expect:
- 5–10 years of mirror‑bright performance under normal home use, including routine dishwashing and daily handling. The PVD layer’s high hardness and corrosion resistance means it resists scratches, fading, and tarnishing far longer than conventional gold plating
- A lifetime of service with gentle care—if you limit abrasive detergents, avoid steel‑wool pads, and hand‑wash whenever possible, the gold finish will often outlast the underlying stainless steel itself.
- Factors that can shorten its life include frequent use of aggressive dishwasher detergents, scrubbing with rough scouring pads, or exposure to acidic foods for prolonged periods.
Can gold PVD coating scratch? The PVD Coating process ensures ultimate durability, including being scratch-proof.
Yes—Gold PVD‑coated cutlery is safe for everyday food use. Here’s why:
- Non‑toxic, inert materials: PVD coatings use inert compounds (e.g. titanium nitride, zirconium nitride) or genuine gold, all of which do not react chemically with food or alter its taste
- Vacuum‑deposition process: Because the coating is applied in a high‑vacuum chamber without liquid chemicals, there’s no risk of residual toxins or solvents
- Regulatory compliance: Reputable manufacturers ensure PVD‑coated flatware meets food‑contact standards (FDA, EFSA, RoHS), so you can trust it’s free from harmful substances.
- Durable, stable finish: The atomically bonded coating won’t flake, peel, or leach—even after years of washing—so there’s no contamination risk over its lifespan
