Nothing that you can see, the designs and colours look exactly the same in both qualities of steel!! However, while New Zealand is the best place in the world to live, the climate can be harsh. While we do all we can to protect our designs from corrosion, sometimes it’s necessary to step it up & bring in the big guns. Stainless Steel is the best defence against sea spray, ocean winds, humidity & high rainfall areas. If you live near the ocean, where it rains a lot, or in an area of high humidity, we recommend you invest in stainless steel.
Absolutely! We love a custom colour & can powder coat in both the Ico Traders exclusive colour range, or any of the IPL or Deluxe colour range (as long as we have powder stocks).
Our first option is always to direct you to a stockist near to you, however, if we can’t find one for you, you can place a backorder for delivery as soon as the new shipment arrives, OR, if you are impatient like me, we can custom colour one for you. (Note: there is a charge to do so).
The best thing to do is to visit your local stockist, (we love to support them, so if you visit, please place your order with them too). Click here for the stocklist list.
