Malaysian brand details use of 316L stainless steel, implant-grade titanium and coated 925 sterling silver to address tarnishing in high-humidity conditions
KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA – Media OutReach Newswire – 29 September 2026 – Nora Ana Jewelry, a Malaysian jewelry brand founded in 2023, has outlined the material and coating standards applied across its collection of earrings, rings, bracelets and necklaces, which are designed for daily wear in tropical conditions. The brand's approach addresses a common issue faced by consumers in Malaysia: the accelerated tarnishing and discolouration of fashion jewelry in high-humidity environments.
Tarnishing is the result of oxidation, a chemical reaction between metal and its surrounding environment. Malaysia's climate presents three conditions that accelerate this process: high year-round humidity, perspiration, and, in coastal areas, salt-laden air. Fashion jewelry produced for temperate markets is typically made from plated brass or alloy, which can discolour in these conditions within weeks.
"Much of the fashion jewelry available to Malaysian consumers is manufactured for markets with very different climates," said Nora Haniff, Founder of Nora Ana Jewelry. "Our collection is developed specifically for the conditions in which Malaysians wear jewelry every day, including exposure to humidity, water and perspiration."
Materials and Coatings
Nora Ana Jewelry's collection is built primarily on three base materials, each selected for its resistance to corrosion and its suitability for sensitive skin:
- 316L stainless steel. A marine-grade steel containing chromium, which forms a passive protective layer against moisture. 316L is widely used in watchmaking and surgical instruments for its corrosion resistance. The brand applies 18K gold plating over this non-reactive base.
- Implant-grade titanium. A chemically inert, nickel-free and biocompatible metal used in medical implants. It is unaffected by water and perspiration and is suitable for wearers with sensitive skin.
- 925 sterling silver. A precious metal with natural hypoallergenic properties. To address sterling silver's tendency to tarnish, the brand applies an 18K gold layer and a protective e-coating to its sterling silver collection, sealing the surface against oxygen, moisture and perspiration.
In addition to e-coating, the brand uses physical vapour deposition (PVD) coating on selected pieces. PVD bonds the gold finish to the base metal at a molecular level, a process also used in the watch and consumer electronics industries. PVD-coated pieces offer increased resistance to scratching, perspiration and chlorinated water.
"We select metals and coating methods that are proven to withstand the conditions Malaysians live in, and design pieces intended to be worn continuously, including during showering, swimming and exercise," Nora said. "Basic care, such as rinsing and wiping jewelry after exposure to chemicals, helps preserve the protective coatings over the long term."
Guidance for Consumers
Nora Ana Jewelry advises consumers to consider three factors when purchasing jewelry intended for daily wear in Malaysia: the base metal, the type of gold finish, and whether any additional protective coating has been applied. Pieces made from unspecified alloy, or without a protective coating, are more likely to tarnish in tropical conditions.
The brand notes that uncoated sterling silver remains a durable option when maintained properly, as it is a precious metal with intrinsic value that can retain its appearance over many years with regular care.

SHANGHAI, CHINA – Media OutReach Newswire – 29 September 2026 – From October 12 to 15, 2026, the 2026 International Brew & Beverage Processing Technology and Equipment Exhibition for China (CBB 2026) — the benchmark full-industry-chain exhibition for the liquid food sector in the Asia-Pacific region — will open at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre (SNIEC). With the final countdown underway, this biennial industry event is sending a rallying call to the global liquid food community on an unprecedented scale.
The next decade of the liquid food industry is beginning here — ahead of time.
Guided by the themes of innovation, intelligence, sustainability and high-end development, and committed to "building a new platform for upgrading the entire liquid food industry chain while writing a new chapter of high-quality development," CBB 2026 will bring together leading enterprises from every segment: baijiu (Chinese spirits), beer, beverages, dairy, condiments and packaging equipment. More than 900 exhibitors from China and abroad will make a joint appearance, and over 60,000 professional visitors from around the world are expected to attend for business discussions, across an exhibition area exceeding 100,000 square meters.
After more than three decades of development, CBB has long been more than a trade fair. It continuously connects the entire chain — from raw materials, brewing and filling to packaging and digital smart manufacturing — creating an integrated industry platform for business matching, technical exchange and innovation. Step into CBB and you will see an exhibition; look closer and you will read the present and the future of an entire industry chain.
01 Leading Enterprises from Every Segment — One Show for the Entire Industry Chain
This year's exhibitor lineup can truly be described as a full mobilization of the industry chain.
From upstream raw and auxiliary materials, brewing and processing, to midstream filling, packaging equipment and production line integration, and on to downstream labeling and coding, smart warehousing and digital solutions — leading enterprises from every segment, including baijiu, beer, beverages, dairy and condiments, will take the stage together, forming a complete map of the industry.
Whether you are sourcing turnkey production lines or comparing individual machines, whether you focus on a single process or evaluate complete smart-manufacturing solutions, you will find your answer at this show.
02 Four Highlights: Unlocking the 2026 Trends of the Liquid Food Industry
Closely aligned with industry development trends, this edition focuses on four main themes — internationalization, localization, intelligentization and green development — bringing together cutting-edge technologies and innovations from around the world to present a clear picture of where the industry is heading.
