"Sustainability" is one of today's most important terms. 

Reducing our resource consumption will help maintain our environment and sustain a life worth living.  Thanks to its outstanding properties, RHEINZINK architectural zinc is not only sustainable, but the definition of sustainability. It is extremely durable, can be 100% recycled in a highly efficient way and has always had a small carbon footprint.

RHEINZINK has been committed to constantly increasing the sustainability of our material. What others are just discovering as an innovation, RHEINZINK has been committed to for our entire company history. Architectural zinc is an excellent material for supporting projects' sustainability - for the future of building and for inspiring possibilities.

Aesthetics that last

Only a truly durable material is also sustainable. If a building made with our material could speak, it would have a lot to say. RHEINZINK products have a service life of around 100 years. During renovation work, or after its long useful life, our sustainable building materials can easily be collected separately and fed into the recycling process.

Aesthetics that return
