Expanding its product portfolio in North America, RHEINZINK-GRANUM EXTRA architectural zinc is now available for roofing, façade and wall cladding systems, gutters and downspouts, and exterior applications. Supporting commercial and residential projects’ creative, sustainable and enduring designs, this resilient and corrosion-resistant material is available in two colors – basalte and granite.
 
RHEINZINK-GRANUM EXTRA is a proprietary titanium-zinc with a matte-finished, color-stable coating. Finishes are available in EXTRA basalte, a dark-gray, nearly black color, and EXTRA granite, a lighter gray, inspired by the natural beauty of zinc. The versatile look and functionality of RHEINZINK-GRANUM EXTRA pairs well with other natural materials, such as wood, stone and glass surfaces.

“Architects, builders and owners are drawn to the elegant aesthetics and weather-resistant durability of RHEINZINK-GRANUM EXTRA architectural zinc. Already in use throughout Europe, we’re excited to bring the authentic aesthetic of this sustainable material to North America,” said RHEINZINK’s sales director for North America, Ferdinand Altmann.
 
Developed and manufactured in Germany, the material’s production complies with strict environmental requirements, quality control methods and international standards. RHEINZINK-GRANUM EXTRA meets the ASTM B69-21 Architectural Rolled Zinc Type 1.
