The Reason Behind the Metals Being Prime Exterior Material

These days’ exterior works has taken a deliberate swing with superior innovative designs. There is no secrecy behind it except the unquestioned flexibility to exorable design changes. Again good workmanship also has proved the best use of the metals in exterior works rather than concrete works which were almost permanent in nature and non-affordable for a design change at reasonable gap of time. The only thing affecting the use of metal parts was the corrosiveness of the metal due to adverse weather condition and sustainability in long term purposes. But some innovative solutions like Kynar coating have given a new identity to the use of metals in exterior design. Normally it is one type of highly developed powder coating technology. It is widely accepted by the international market in the group of resin based coatings. Though it is somehow different form PFA coating which is also a Teflon based powder coating process. The similarity is Both Kynar coating and PFA coating have high temperature resistance capacity.

The benefit of use of such coating is widely beneficial to architects. Because they can design very attractive colored pallets with superior gloss and color. They can use it in various shapes even some come in preformed shapes also according to the design. Because the malleability allows them to bend it trim it to different shapes as per requirement of clients or their design. Tactfully use of these coated metals can result to beautiful color combinations with metal finish which is difficult to achieve in case of concrete constructions. Big Malls and residential apartments these days are in the race of using this coated metal forms to multiply the beauty of the constructions. Again these are quite stubborn against sun, acid rains or corrosive atmosphere or abrasion. These are used for roofing purpose or frames for the doors and windows too. Some more advantages of use of these metals are these are helpful for quicker construction works.

So these are the main factors for which these days the popularity of these products are growing day by day. Now if the other section the cost is discussed some more points can be highlighted. These are coming in different grades and different finishes which effect the minor change in costs. But in overall calculation the cost consumed for this use of coated metals has never been a headache or hurdle if we see the credibility of its appearance and sustainability. The powder coating technology has emerged its beauty over paints like spray painting or others with it adorable surface finish. The coat is very light in weight but offers good resistance to chemical erosion against most of the savants. Various test methods are adopted including aging process to test the durability of the product. Offering good mechanical strength enables the use in large scale in different sections. So the use of metals in exterior design has been no more a headache like a work of frequent maintenance and cost of repair or replacement. Use of glass and these metals has brought a drastically change in exterior design industry.
