RHEINZINK® Sheet Metal Product Lines
prePATINA ECO ZINC
In the late 1980s, RHEINZINK was the first manufacturer to develop a process for patinating titanium-zinc sheet metal. Through an innovative patination process, the final surface finish is achieved already at the factory, resulting in the prePATINA ECO ZINC blue-grey and prePATINA ECO ZINC graphite-grey surfaces. This colour finish is not a coating, so all the positive properties of solid zinc remain intact — properties that would otherwise only develop on a building over many years. An added benefit of natural or factory-induced patina formation is that any scratches are self-healed through the ongoing formation of patina and therefore remain invisible. The prePATINA ECO ZINC product line is environmentally friendly, requires no maintenance, and is an excellent choice for buildings with an individual character.

CLASSIC
Original, natural, and time-tested: RHEINZINK-CLASSIC has proven its excellent properties for roofing over more than 50 years. Depending on climatic conditions, a velvety blue-grey patina gradually develops from the shiny surface, giving every building charisma and individual character. RHEINZINK-CLASSIC sheet metal can be used for all sheet-metal-worked roofing and represents an excellent symbiosis of contemporary design and tradition.
GRANUM
RHEINZINK is expanding its range of high-quality surfaces with two phosphated variants: GRANUM skygrey and GRANUM basalte. The grey elegance of GRANUM skygrey has a restrained, authentic, and self-assured aesthetic. GRANUM basalte presents itself as a dark grey, almost black variant — purist, professional, and precise. The grey tones offer possibilities for individuality and contemporary, transparent architecture. Thoughtful combinations with materials such as wood, natural stone, plaster, or glazed surfaces create an artistic urban character with clear contrast, opening up new possibilities for placing unique objects in a modern context.
The skygrey and basalte surfaces in the GRANUM product line perfectly complement RHEINZINK's existing product lines. The noble, matte finish is achieved by phosphating the surface using the most modern, environmentally friendly production technology. The phosphate layer is long-lasting, weather-resistant, and durable, with the appearance of the characteristic structure of natural patina.

PRISMO
Colours create atmosphere, express character, and stimulate the senses. With the PRISMO product line — RHEINZINK's natural, colour-coated line — buildings capture attention while still blending harmoniously with their surroundings. The result is a unique look that lives and reflects nature. In harmonious combination with natural materials such as wood, RHEINZINK-PRISMO gives every project a distinctive, one-of-a-kind appearance.
Aesthetic appearance
Six colour tones, inspired by nature, emphasise the architectural concept, while the unusual semi-transparency of the colour coating gives it an aesthetic look. The shades of gold, brown, blue, red, green, and black express naturalness, connecting with the fundamental elements of earth, fire, water, and air.
Multi-layered depth
The base of the PRISMO line is the phosphated GRANUM skygrey surface, coated with a semi-transparent PU lacquer. The resulting colour effects, combined with the surface structure of classic zinc, give buildings an unexpectedly appealing look. Together with RHEINZINK's other colour variant, artCOLOR, which impresses with its bright colour spectrum, RHEINZINK now offers two creative solutions for the individual look of every home.
