Main advantages
- Durability: elZinc® has a very long life. One of the most important characteristics of zinc is that it is very resistant to atmospheric corrosion. The patina that develops on its surface after a short time is self-healing, ensuring the material´s attractive appearance lasts for decades.
- Sustainibility:Zinc is one of the few materials used in construction that can be recycled indefinitely without losing its physical and chemical characteristics.
- Malleability: elZinc® conforms to practically any shape including bends and complex geometric forms. This gives architects great freedom in their designs.
- Appearance: elZinc® is a contemporary material which is perfectly suited to all types of architecture, both in classical and modern.
- Variety: elZinc® offers a huge variety of surface aspects which creates a vast number of design possibilities.
