Legal Background

In general, titanium zinc is a building material that has been tried and tested over many years and is characterized by longevity and ecological safety. In individual construction areas and municipalities, however, due to uncertainties or incorrect information, bans can be issued that restrict the use of zinc in construction.

However: There is no general prohibition of zinc sheet for use as roof covering, for facade cladding or for rainwater drainage.

At this point we would like to provide information and provide you with the specialist article by Mr. Michael Halstenberg. The article published in April 2018 in the technical title Building Law deals in detail with the legal background of zinc as a building material on buildings.

If you have any questions or need additional information, take a look at our zinc facts, which give you useful practical knowledge about the use of zinc in buildings or get in touch with us!
