A-Teku is our Premium Collection product inspired by antique copper.
Copper is a historical material with formal, structural, and plastic properties that are still exploited in contemporary art, architecture, design, and technology.
A-Teku is able to create a realistic material effect on application surfaces due to the chromatic effects of genuine chemical oxidation of copper and iron.
The result is a striking visual impression of metals abandoned to the erosive action of weathering. At first sight they resemble the typical relief patterns of orographic maps.
A-Teku helps our pre-painted metal Atelier to fulfil any design concepts.

A-Teku is the result of a special treatment using polyurethane paints specifically designed to make the coated materials look like antique copper.
The product is recommended for all outdoor uses (tinsmithing, cladding).
Since the pattern is created using multiple colours, it is not possible to guarantee any Delta E value, although different runs can certainly be used together.
It is made with PVDF and guaranteed 20 years.
