INTRODUCTION
Brass & Bronze Extrusions - A Vision of Unlimited Potential
Since
the dawn of civilization the metal copper and its alloys, brass and
bronze, have played a vital role in the development of cultures throughout
the world. For over 6,000 years workers in metal craft have appreciated
the enduring beauty and quality of brass and bronze, molding them
to create powerful symbols of purity and eternity.
Although
modern Architectural Brass and Bronze retain the inherent corrosion
resistance of copper, these alloys may bear only a small resemblance
to the compositions used in early civilizations. For example the term
"Architectural Bronze" often refers to brass, which contains
copper and zinc rather than the traditional copper and tin of the Bronze
Age.
Today,
copper alloys are available in a range of warm colors which are the
result of subtle changes in the constituent elements of each alloy.
Architectural Brass, Bronze and Nickel Silver are therefore ideal
for building applications, imparting a sense of permanence and timeless
beauty to any project.
Starting
with an Architect’s or Designer’s concept, we provide skilled
specialist advice and a range of alloys to satisfy the most demanding
challenge. In order that the shape and color desired for any application
be realized, we offer Architectural shapes in various alloys.
