Zinc can last up to 100 years on ceilings and facades and can be recycled. Also, Zinc panels can adapt to complex shapes and be precisely perforated.

When in contact with humidity, Zinc panels generate a self-protecting layer that isolates heat from indoor spaces during the summer. Rain and snow, slide easily over its surfaces, and its modular panels can wrap curved shapes or be perforated according to the architectural design, and combined in facades and/or ceilings through different shades, brightness, and colors.
