XYC's Guide to Core Architectural Metals
We stock and process a range of high-performance alloy materials to meet the most demanding design and engineering requirements, realizing the limitless possibilities of architectural metal.
Enduring Strength: Stainless Steel (304 & 316)
Stainless steel is one of our most essential architectural metals , recognized globally for its superior corrosion resistance and high strength. We primarily utilize high-quality grades 304 and 316 , supplying materials in various forms, including sheets, plates, and tubes.
- Performance Guarantee:Grade 304 is suitable for most interior and general exterior applications. For high-chloride environments, marine applications, or settings requiring ultimate endurance, we recommend 316 stainless steel.
- Custom Finishes:Through processes like PVD coating, mirror-polishing (8K/12K) , brushed satin finish , and etching , we can endow stainless steel with any aesthetic, from minimalist modern to high-luxury.
Lightweight & Resilient: Aluminum Alloy (6061, 5052, 3003, 1100)
Aluminum alloy is indispensable in modern architecture due to its lightweight nature, high strength-to-weight ratio, and excellent corrosion resistance.
- Ecological Advantage:Aluminum is a sustainable material and is 100% recyclable, aligning with green building standards and reducing environmental impact.
- Protection:Aluminum naturally forms a self-healing oxide layer on its surface, effectively preventing further corrosion.
- Fabrication & Finishing:We offer various alloys (including 6061, 5052, 3003, 1100 ) and perform surface treatments such as anodizing , powder coating , and PVDF coating , alongside full custom fabrication services (cutting, bending, welding).
Classic & Luxurious: Copper Alloys (Brass & Bronze)
Brass and Bronze (collectively Copper Alloys) are highly sought after for high-end architectural trim and luxury interiors due to their warm color tones and natural luxurious aesthetic.
- Living Finish:Copper alloys possess a unique “living finish” , naturally developing a rich patina over time, which imparts character and depth.
- Antimicrobial Properties:Copper alloys naturally exhibit antimicrobial properties, making them a hygienic choice for high-touch surfaces in hospitality and public spaces.
- Durability:Grades like C510/C614 Bronze offer exceptional resistance to saltwater corrosion, making them ideal for both interior details and demanding marine environments.
Iconic & Rustic: Corten Steel (Weathering Steel)
Corten Steel (such as A242 and A588 grades) provides an iconic rust-like appearance and superior weathering resistance , making it a powerful choice for architectural facades, outdoor sculptures , and landscape design.
- Protective Patina:When exposed to the atmosphere, the alloy forms a dense, stable outer rust layer (patina), which shields the base metal from further corrosion.
Maintenance-Free: Once the stable patina is achieved, Corten Steel is virtually maintenance-free, perfect for creating large-scale architectural features and landscape art with minimal upkeep.
Our architectural metal sheet & panels collection is characterized by a comprehensive range of advanced innovative products for the enhancement of architectural development. Through decorative screens to functional balustrades and bespoke statues, we offer aesthetics together with durability, making the opportunities for creative design applications endless.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. How do I choose the right Stainless Steel grade (304 vs. 316) for my project?
A: Grade 304 is suitable for most interior and general exterior applications. For highly corrosive environments, marine locations, or high-chloride areas, we strongly recommend using Grade 316 stainless steel for superior durability and longevity.
2.What is Aluminum's primary benefit for large-scale architectural use?
A: Aluminum offers an exceptional high strength-to-weight ratio and is highly formable, making it ideal for manufacturing large-scale curtain walls, cladding, and complex geometric structures without excessive structural load.
3. Why choose Copper Alloys (Brass/Bronze) over Stainless Steel for luxury interiors?
A: Copper Alloys are chosen for their warm, luxurious color tones, unique aesthetic, and ability to develop a natural patina (living finish). Additionally, they possess natural antimicrobial properties suitable for high-touch surfaces.
4. How do you ensure the finish on exterior Aluminum cladding will not fade or chalk?
A: For exterior applications, we use specialized durable coatings like PVDF or high-performance powder coatings, which provide proven resistance against UV rays, fading, and weathering.
5. What fabrication processes ensure optimal corrosion resistance for Aluminum?
A: We utilize treatments like anodizing and powder coating to artificially enhance aluminum’s naturally forming protective oxide layer, providing an extra barrier against environmental elements.
6. Does Corten Steel continue to rust indefinitely, and what maintenance is required?
A: No. Corten Steel forms a dense, stable outer rust layer (patina) which acts as a protective shield, preventing the base metal from further corrosion. It is essentially maintenance-free once the stable patina is achieved.
7. How long does it take for Corten Steel to achieve its stable rust color?
A: The formation of the protective patina begins immediately upon exposure to the atmosphere. The time required to achieve a stable, deep color varies based on the local climate and humidity.
8. Can I use mirror-polished stainless steel for an outdoor installation?
A: Yes, but to maintain the mirror finish against environmental corrosion, especially in coastal or highly exposed areas, we require the use of 316L stainless steel, which offers superior resistance.
9. Which of your core metals are the most sustainable?
A: Aluminum and Steel are highly (up to 100%) recyclable materials with long life cycles, significantly reducing construction waste and aligning with LEED and green building certifications.
10. Can I request a metal alloy that is not listed in your core materials?
A: Absolutely. Our service includes full design consultation. We collaborate with clients to source, test, and fabricate other specific alloys required to meet unique aesthetic, structural, or environmental project specifications
