Description
A range of rainwater systems, including the half-round rainwater system and other gutter profiles. All systems have a comprehensive range of components that are robust and easily assembled. The rainwater systems have been designed to complement a wide range of building materials and styles, including new build and refurbishment applications. Pre-weathered colours provide colour stability whilst developing the natural, self-protecting patina of zinc.
Zinc is amongst the most sustainable metals used in construction and presents very few corrosion problems. Maintenance requirements will be minimal throughout the system's design life and the material's installed appearance will be retained. Zinc rainwater systems are cost-effective, both from an initial procurement and design life perspective.
Features and benefits:
- Lightweight and durable.
- Minimal expansion and creak.
- Low maintenance.
- Choice of gutter profiles.
- Self-protecting natural patina - will not corrode.
- Fully recyclable.
- A design life that can exceed 50 years.
