| Outdoors | Widely used externally. | A traditional exterior cladding metal. | Very well suited to external use, which is a large part of why it is specified for facades and louvres. | Used externally throughout, always with a coating system appropriate to the exposure. |
| Finishes | 10: mirror, hairline, brushed & satin, vibration, embossed, etched, special texture, special effects… | 2: brushed & satin, patina | 4: hairline, brushed & satin, cast & relief, ombre | 3: brushed & satin, special texture, distressed |
| In short | The metal that holds a mirror polish and holds it in public. | The quietest metal we work with. | The metal that solves problems of weight and span. | The metal behind the metal. |
