Renovation and Renewal

publication date: Feb 12, 2008

However, stainless steel helps to make historic buildings fit for future use while maintaining and underlining their original character. The examples include, among other, archaeological sites, which are kept accessible to the public without compromising their protection for future generations. Listed buildings can be put to modern use with their historic character maintained and even underlined. Also buildings, which are just a few decades old, often need to be given a new lease of life to become attractive again for today’s demanding users. Finally, stainless steel is also successfully used to fill gaps and close voids in the urban landscape, where it merges with its built environment.
