The world of natural "zinc coating"! We are broadcasting new possibilities of zinc from this office! It can be used not only for rust prevention but also as a design element.

We would like to introduce a case study of our product, the "Robal Series," applied at the Robal Corporation's Kitahama office located in Osaka City. Originally used as a rust preventive for iron and galvanized materials, "Robal" is showcased here in a decorative context. When Robal is applied to a steel plate, the finish appears monochrome. However, when applied to plywood, the texture follows the wood grain, expressing various brightness levels depending on the viewing angle. Moreover, by changing the orientation of the board, the way light hits it changes, allowing for a gradient effect to be observed. This office is filled with inspiration by showcasing numerous examples of Robal in use. [Case Overview] ■ Design: Nikken Space Design ■ Location: Robal Corporation's Kitahama office in Osaka City *For more details, please refer to the related link page or feel free to contact us.
