ZinaCore stands out as a versatile and cost-effective roofing choice for architects. Designed to meet the demands of New Zealand's diverse climatic conditions, ZinaCore offers a robust combination of durability, aesthetic appeal, and economic efficiency for steel roofing projects.

ZinaCore, a product of ColorCote, is one of the most widely accessible pre-painted metal roofing products available.

Engineered to protect homes and commercial buildings from the elements, ZinaCore ensures long-lasting performance and visual appeal. It features a hot-dipped aluminium/zinc alloy coating over a steel substrate, providing exceptional resistance to corrosion and UV damage. The advanced paint system, incorporating infrared reflective pigments, enhances gloss and colour retention, making ZinaCore a reliable choice for projects requiring both performance and visual appeal.

The standout feature of ZinaCore is its cost-effectiveness. It offers significant savings in terms of material, labour, and installation costs compared to heavier alternatives like concrete. Additionally, its lightweight nature contributes to safer installations, particularly in seismic zones, reducing the overall structural load and associated costs.

The formability of ZinaCore allows it to be easily shaped to suit various design aesthetics, providing specifiers with the flexibility to achieve their desired look without compromising on performance. Available in over 40 colours, ZinaCore can complement any architectural style, ensuring that your project not only stands strong but also looks stunning.

Choosing ZinaCore also means making an environmentally conscious decision. ColorCote is committed to sustainability, implementing practices that reduce their environmental footprint, including improving energy efficiency, reducing CO2 emissions, minimising waste, and increasing recycling efforts.
