Zinc

Non-Ferro

What is zinc?

Zinc is a versatile, durable, and low-maintenance metal that is best known for its excellent corrosion resistance.

It is widely used in construction for roof edging, roofing, and cladding, but also in drainage systems such as gutters and downspouts. 

 Zinc naturally has a self-repairing patina that protects the material from external influences, giving it a very long service life. At Roba Metals, we supply high-quality zinc products suitable for both functional and aesthetic applications in new construction, renovation, and restoration projects. 

Applications of zinc

Zinc has a wide range of uses in both construction and other sectors: 

  • Construction and architecture for gutters, downspouts, facade cladding, and roofing systems. 
  • Renovation and restoration for the replacement of historic zinc elements in heritage projects. 
  • Design and aesthetics for colored and patinated zinc surfaces for unique facade and roof designs. 
  • Water drainage and protection for efficient rainwater drainage and protection of structures against moisture.
