Zinc is naturally resistant to corrosion, is extremely durable and does not require costly maintenance in time. In addition, the flexibility, malleability and versatility of zinc, combined with its pleasing appearance, make it the material of choice for imaginative building projects from individual homes to commercial complexes, public buildings and private projects.
As a non-ferrous metal, zinc is naturally self-protecting. With time, it forms an attractive light grey patina. It does not rust, requires little or no maintenance, is remarkably resistant to corrosion and is perfectly watertight. Zinc offers durability and long-term cost-effectiveness, together with the potential for all types of working and shaping.

Zinc is a natural element extracted from blende ore. At the end of a metallurgical process including roasting the blende, reducing the zinc oxide obtained and refining it by electrolysis, we obtain the zinc used in construction. Following hot rolling, the sheets, coils and small coils are ready to be turned into finished products.

Zinc products and systems

Today architects and owners demonstrate their attachment to the material. Their enthusiasm is expressed in the application of zinc to all the functions of a building and in the adaptation of the material to all architectural styles.

The architect can now see his projects taking form in the expert hands of the roofer who transforms the zinc. The building envelope comes into being, and light and contrasting shadows play with one another. Zinc lends itself to all building applications:

• Roofing,
• Facade,
• Rainwatersystem D gutters,
• Ornaments and finishing elements for roofs.
