It&#8217;s difficult to say one metal is clearly\u00a0better or worse than another. When it comes to metal cladding and roofing, different materials will suit different applications. There are multiple variables to consider; such as overall design vision, personal taste, project location, cladding or roofing profile, adjacent materials, long-term building maintenance, and durability requirements.<\/p>\n<p>Architectural Metals Australia (AMA), focuses\u00a0on offering better material options for specifiers, installers and end users. Mazzonetto&#8217;s Vestis Copper provides a legitimate pre-painted aluminium specification alternative for those considering Natural copper.<\/p>\n<p>Natural copper produces a spectacular and romantic aesthetic and its ageing process is inherit to its character; in some cases its captivating appearance is the main reason for specification. If aged copper is the look\u00a0you seek, there&#8217;s nothing more beautiful than the real thing. \u00a0However falling in love with the material&#8217;s original orange hue\u00a0can be dangerous if you&#8217;re not prepared to also love how the metal will look in years to come. Copper can change from\u00a0golden tones, to green, into deep browns, and eventually it can appear\u00a0almost black. \u00a0In addition to being aware of the metal&#8217;s colour evolution, one must also remember the ageing process won&#8217;t \u00a0occur evenly\u00a0across the materials surface. In some cases, this is the desired effect and it&#8217;s\u00a0stunning. But if a rustic look wasn&#8217;t intended, copper applications can quickly become\u00a0disappointing.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2705\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2705\" style=\"width: 5472px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-2705 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/architecturalmetalsaustralia.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/YoungStreet_MCS_small.jpg\" alt=\"Natural copper cladding in a standing seam profile.\" width=\"5472\" height=\"3648\" srcset=\"https:\/\/architecturalmetalsaustralia.com.au\/development\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/YoungStreet_MCS_small.jpg 5472w, https:\/\/architecturalmetalsaustralia.com.au\/development\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/YoungStreet_MCS_small-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/architecturalmetalsaustralia.com.au\/development\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/YoungStreet_MCS_small-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 5472px) 100vw, 5472px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2705\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Natural copper cladding in a standing seam profile.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Vestis Copper offers a\u00a0preserved version of natural copper&#8217;s original orange appearance. Providing a slightly patina surface, Vestis Copper duplicates the look of recently installed natural copper. However unlike natural copper, its appearance won&#8217;t alter over time.<\/p>\n<p>Another key difference between natural copper and Vestis pre-painted aluminium, is base material\u00a0cost. Large amounts of natural copper can become expensive.
