aRCHITECTURAL METALS

You can also contact AMA in the field of metal roof and wall systems. For 15 years we have been mediating between architects and contractors when it comes to the metal decoration of buildings. Designs for roofs and facades in metal. High-quality metals such as zinc, copper, stainless steel and brass. Common applications: roofing & coverings, cladding, architectural facades, interior design, exterior design.

Copper

Copper was one of the first metals used by man and is one of our oldest building materials. With the onset of the 20th century and the international modernist movement came a transformation from copper’s historic role as a durable roofing material to a flexible architectural skin over any surface, including walls. As a result, modern architects have focused on copper as a layer covering entire surfaces in order to enhance buildings’ form and maintain material continuity. Copper has a long tradition as building, construction and design material. With the growing use of metals in outdoor designs, some concerns about emissions of metals and their interaction with the environment have been raised. Research results show that copper is a sustainable, long lasting material with no harmful effects on the environment.

Zinc

Because of its flexibility, zinc is extremely suitable for the most original shapes and it is easy to work with. Zinc offers great design freedom for both roofs and facades. The increasing commercialization and diffusion of zinc-titanium laminates in Europe and the rest of the world can only be explained within an ever more innovative architectonic context, where there is a growing demand for new materials, capable of adapting to unprecedented shapes. Zinc is 100 percent recyclable even at the end of its life. Once installed, it does not require maintenance or particular protective treatments, significantly reducing the maintenance costs.

Stainless steel

The manufacturer we work with is able to provide a vast array of high-quality, dynamic specialised finishes on stainless steel and other metals. Having been established for over 60 years, they have gained a long-standing reputation in the metal finishing industry. Recognised as a leading supplier in the architectural sector. Their stainless-steel product variations are endless. From the standard surface finishes, hairline and satin, through to the patterned range. Stainless-steel products create dynamic façades and iconic buildings that will change in appearance as the surrounding environment alters in differing light and conditions. Furthermore they offer supermirror product, which is as near as a perfect polish that can be produced on stainless steel that has been used to great effect in architecture and design. Stainless Steel is 100% recyclable and up to 80% is from recycled content.
