The use of zinc laminate in the construction sector has a long-standing tradition, which has made it the most used non-ferrous covering and cladding material in Europe. 


The zintek® zinc-titanium laminate is a top-range product in terms of:


• respect for the environment;


• cost effectiveness, compared to non-ferrous metals used in similar applications;


• low maintenance needs;


• extremely long-lasting lifespan;


• pleasant aesthetic appearance. 


The chemical and physical characteristics of the product ensure excellent workability and weldability. Resistance to atmospheric corrosion allows for lower maintenance and restoration costs.


Applications in architecture

The increasing commercialization and diffusion of zinc-titanium laminates in Europe and the rest of the world can only be explained within an ever more innovative architectonic context, where there is a growing demand for new materials, capable of adapting to unprecedented shapes.


In Italy, the architectonic scenario has always been bound to past tradition, where historical centres and monuments represent normality rather than the exception. New buildings must always share the urban space with monumental and historic constructions.
