Rheinzink was founded by the Grillo Stolberger Zinc companies together with Vereinigte Deutsche Metallwerke in 1966. Today it belongs to the Grillo group and has a workforce of over 800 people. Rheinzink has an international presence, boasting subsidiaries and sales branches in 30 different countries on five continents.

For over 40 years the Rheinzink Group has produced top-quality titanium zinc at its Datteln site. Rheinzink has now refined and expanded its product line to encompass four distinct finishes:

PATINA Line – Living material

The original Rheinzink. Available in a natural sheet metal Rheinzink -prePatina bright rolled finish, or in the pre-weathered surfaces Rheinzink-prePatina blue-grey and Rheinzink-prePatina graphite-grey.

Natural patina
25 years’ experience in the invention and development of the pre-weathering process

GRANUM Line – Modern Elegance

Rheinzink is expanding its range of high-quality surface finishes by adding two phosphated variants: Granum Skygrey and Granum Basalte.

Granum Skygrey provide a simple and pure aesthetic.
Granum Basalte is a dark grey, almost black version, giving a modern, professional and precise look.

The straightforward grey tones allow room for efficient individuality and modern, transparent architecture. Intelligently combined with materials such as wood, natural stone, plaster or glass surfaces they create artful, clear contrasts and suitable for urban designs.

The Skygrey and Basalte surfaces in the Granum product line perfectly complement Rheinzink’s existing product range. The elegant, matt appearance is achieved by phosphating the surface based on state-of-the-art and environment-friendly production technology.

Prismo Line – Subtle Colour Variety for a Unique Look

Colours create atmosphere, show character, and stimulate. With, RHEINZINK’s Prismo natural-looking colour-coated product line, buildings attract attention whilst still blending naturally into their surroundings.

The basis of the Prismo line is the phosphated surface, Granum Skygrey, which is coated with a semi-transparent PU lacquer. The semi-transparent lacquer allows a hint of the underlying zinc structure which adds an unexpected facet to the building’s appearance.

Harmony with the Surroundings

Six colour nuances inspired by nature highlight the concept of a project, the unusual semi-transparency of the coating forms the aesthetic overall appearance. The nuances of gold, brown, blue, red, green and black colours reflect the basic elements of earth, fire, water and air.
