4 Clean. Solid. Precise. STAINLESS STEEL

5 STAINLESS STEEL Clean, precise, impervious, stainless steel with its structural qualities is the perfect choice to define large spaces. With either a satin or polished finish, it conveys a modern and highly technological interpretation of today s way of life. 5 brochure bromabl usa 24p -definitiva2.indd 5 01/12/

6 STAINLESS STEEL The corrosion resistance and structural stability of stainless steel give an everlasting appearance. An excellent choice for coastal applications and highly corrosive environments.

8 Rustic. Refi ned. Elegant. COR-TEN

9 COR-TEN STEEL Cor-Ten steel has a unique, distinctive appearance. The intense richness of its fi nish bestows a warm, natural, yet at the same time extremely elegant look. Its distinctive appearance is a result of an oxidation process which forms a protective patina that remains unchanged over the years. 9

10 COR-TEN Cor-Ten steel is a high tensile strength, corrosion resistant, steel alloy, containing copper, chromium and phosphorus. The name (Cor-Ten) refl ects the special properties of this alloy: corrosion resistance (Cor) and high tensile strength (Ten). These properties make Cor-Ten steel particularly suitable for use in any environment.

12 Expressive. Imaginative. Creative. PAINTED STEEL

13 PAINTED STEEL Simple and unyielding, powder coated galvanized steel boasts a great tradition and has always played an irreplaceable role in the building trade. Slender steel frames offer a functional and practical solution to the aesthetical requirements of today s most demanding architects and designers. 13

16 Warm. Inviting. Alluring. BRONZE

17 BRONZE The warm, lustrous color typical of old Bronze and its unique aesthetic qualities make this the ideal choice for restoration of old buildings, where it blends perfectly with the architectural design. Bronze is particularly resistant to atmospheric elements making it the perfect choice for coastal applications. 17

18 BRONZE Bronze lends itself perfectly to projects from historic renovations to modern architectural designs. Over time the natural oxidation process creates a patina that will transform to an attractive rich dark brown color creating an almost living and ever changing fi nish.

20 STAINLESS STEEL These frames are made with sections of cold rolled industrial grade stainless steel strip that has been pretreated, resulting in superior quality and consistency. 1, 1.5, 2 and mm thickness ADVANTAGES Resistant to acid or salt water corrosion. 3 fi nishes available with pre-fi nished sections Recyclable and renewable. The strength of steel allows minimum sightlines and large openings. Extremely durable and free from distortion*. Great for security from break-in*. Great resistance to the elements (air, water & wind). SCOPE Ocean front homes. Modern institutional buildings such as corporate headquarters, offi ces, banks or public buildings. Sterile environments such as hospitals, agricultural, or food industry. Swimming pools and other high corrosive areas. Fashion and design sales outlets and showrooms. COR-TEN STEEL These frames are made with Cor-Ten sections of high tensile strength, corrosion resistant steel alloy strip that forms a uniform, stable layer of oxidation on the metal surface when exposed to air. This coating prevents further atmospheric corrosion. 1, 5 mm thickness. PAINTED GALVANIZED STEEL These frames are made with sections of phosphorus alloy steel strip that is hot galvanized using the Sendzimir GZ 200 process, surface treated with a skin pass process and powder coat fi nish. 1, 5 mm thickness. ADVANTAGES A striking patina is formed on the surface by the oxidation process. This is a unique, original material that is not yet in widespread use. Recyclable and renewable. The strength of steel allows minimum sightlines and large openings. Great resistance to the elements (air, water & wind). Extremely durable and free from distortion*. Great for security from break-in*. ADVANTAGES All RAL colors available in smooth, embossed or metal fi nish. Akzo Nobel polyester paint can be used to customize. Powder coating is resistant to weather, heat, light and UV. Gloss level can range from 85 (high gloss) to 20 (fl at). Fittings and accessories for any opening type. The strength of steel allows minimum sightlines and large openings. Extremely durable and free from distortion*. Great for security from break-in*. SCOPE Restoration/recovery of prestigious historical buildings. Decorative surfaces and partition paneling systems. Fashion and design sales outlets and showrooms. Modern institutional buildings such as corporate offi ces, banks or public buildings. SCOPE Restorations of historic buildings. Industrial and commercial buildings. High end residential.
