Since the down 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.
