General Appliance Grade VCM PVC Laminated Steel Coil – GI Base
Product Overview
VCM (Vinyl Coated Metal) PVC laminated steel is a premium decorative metal product manufactured by thermally bonding a polyvinyl chloride decorative film onto galvanized steel substrate. Unlike liquid-painted PPGI, VCM reproduces realistic textures, patterns and premium surface effects, making it the preferred material for home appliance exterior panels. This standard GI-based grade delivers good formability, consistent appearance and reliable durability for general appliance manufacturing.
Why Choose CNB VCM Laminated Steel?
We produce VCM laminated steel on high-speed continuous lamination lines with strict control over film adhesion, surface flatness and color consistency. We use only high-quality PVC films from top global film manufacturers, ensuring UV stability, scratch resistance and long-term appearance retention. Every coil undergoes 100% surface inspection and adhesion testing to guarantee quality for appliance OEM production.
