Bronze
The prestige of Architectural Bronze is due to its look and high resistance to corrosion, which make it the ideal material for high-level architecture. Our units from Bombal use an OT67 alloy in which a high percentage of copper (67%) determines the high resistance to corrosion, while the remaining percentage of zinc (33%) improves its mechanical properties, such as hardness and tensile strength.
The typical feature of this alloy is to naturally oxidize when in contact with air, while keeping unchanged its physical features, to obtain that particular antique bronze finishing that makes it ideal for prestigious refurbishment of historical buildings and for new, high-level buildings with a look that joins elegance with tradition.
The self-protection generated by the natural oxidation process makes the final product ideal for difficult environments such as the marine environments.
TRANSFORMATION PROCESS
After the coil stock is cut and rolled into the frame sections it undergoes a heat treatment. This prevents the sections from potential cracking as it relieves the stress applied during the rolling process. The resulting product is the highest quality bronze available in the fenestration industry
