To accommodate the growing need of services for the community, the city constructed a new 40,000-square-foot public safety building to house its central fire station, fire administration, police headquarters and municipal court. Zinc panels were an integral part of the design goals and ultimate success of the new facility.
RHEINZINK America celebrates its recent industry-leading awards, recognizing its sustainable architectural zinc products and innovative design applications.
Once the initial layout measurements were taken by the installers, the panels were installed bottom to top and left to right sequentially. The perimeter attachment surface was formed into the metal. Rooney notes the installation was relatively easy because of the team's attention to detail.
Cascadia Metals now offers RHEINZINK architectural zinc materials in coils and flat sheets for roofing, façade and wall cladding systems, and interior applications.
To clad the 37,200-square-foot structure, Old Country Millwork supplied Four C’s Construction with approximately 8 tons of RHEINZINK’s architectural zinc. Four C’s fabricated the natural metal material into 12-inch-wide reveal wall panels and installed 7,600 square feet on the building’s exterior.
According to market research, the cool roof coating market is expected to reach $8.3 billion by 2032—almost doubling what the market currently generates. In our latest issue, we discuss this idea and much more.
For wall cladding and roofing systems, architectural zinc’s inherent metallic properties can help reduce buildings’ operational carbon footprints, and improve their energy-efficient, climate-resilient, long-lasting performance.
Now produced using 50% less carbon dioxide (CO2), the company’s premium RHEINZINK-prePATINA products are now part of its RHEINZINK-ECO ZINC offering. This is the first architectural zinc material in the world to reduce an already small carbon footprint by more than half.
