zintek® in architecture

A high quality alloy, in which copper and titanium improve the performance levels of zinc. It has many qualities that can be applied in multiple contexts of modern architecture.

Characteristics of zintek®

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.

A HIGH QUALITY MATERIAL

  1. Unique: natural, ecological, totally recyclable
  2. Improves over time: with weather precipitations it gains a layer of basic zinc carbonate that guarantees its lifespan can last up to 100 years
  3. Maintenance-free: requires no maintenance or specific protective treatments
  4. Clean: does not stain or damage surrounding materials
  5. Versatile: can adapt to any shape or surface
  6. Long-lasting: keeps the value of buildings unaltered over time

AN ECO-FRIENDLY MATERIAL

  1. Natural and ecological
  2. Certified compliance with current environmental standards
  3. Totally recyclable and re-usable, maintains its market value even when recycled
  4. Requires no specific disposal operations
  5. Rain water collected by zintek® gutter systems is particularly nutritious for plants, thanks to the presence of zinc mineral salts

A MATERIAL THAT MARRIES SUSTAINABLE ARCHITECTURE

  1. Extremely low environmental impact
  2. When combined with a specific substructure, it decreases humidity and heat dispersion in environments, thus lowering energy consumption levels
  3. Improves the quality of life of those who inhabit the buildings
  4. Creates harmony with the surrounding urban context

A HARMONIZING DESIGN MATERIAL

  1. Embodies harmony between tradition and innovation
  2. Is synonymous with great elegance and formal cleanliness
  3. Adheres perfectly to any architectonic profile
  4. Is suitable for a multitude of installation techniques, for various application solutions
  5. Encloses a message of beautysolidityrespect for the environment and long lifespan

A MATERIAL TO REGENERATE BUILDINGS

  1. Compliant with quality and energy efficiency standards
  2. Contributes to reduce heating and air conditioning consumption levels
  3. When applied correctly, it guarantees resistance and long-lasting lifespan with no need for maintenance
  4. Increases the life expectancy of buildings
