Historically, copper has served as the ultimate choice of material for roofing. Unsurpassed in durability, beauty and value, copper is the only roofing material that actually improves with age. This ‘aging’ or ‘patina’ process not only enhances the roof’s appearance, but it protects the metal from further oxidation. Copper’s longevity is legendary. Almost all of the copper produced throughout time is still in use. And, in addition to being 100% recyclable, most architectural copper produced today has a recycled content of nearly 75%. Thus, not only is copper the best choice to protect a structure, it’s also the best choice to protect the environment.
Hot-dipped zinc coating provides a good adherent base for a subsequent application of paint. This product is often referred to as ‘Paint Grip’ in the market because Armco developed the product, and ‘Paint Grip’ was part of their brand name.
Coating is produced by a continuous hot dip process of 55% aluminum/ 45% zinc alloy. It provides good paint adherence and corrosion resistance.
