Flat Seam systems by Zahner offer a uniquely flexible metal facade system, compatible with many common metals and finishes, including most Zahner Surfaces.
Flat Seam panel systems developed by Zahner provide designers with a customizable facade system that can be formed to almost any surface geometry. Various aesthetics are achievable with this system, as it allows for a combination of varying panel sizes, shapes, and joint layouts that all have similar fabrication and installation techniques.
Standard Flat Seam systems are composed of the interlocking panels themselves and stainless steel clips that secure the system back to the substrate. These overlocking hems allow some tolerance in the system layout, so any field modifications that are needed are more flexible and efficient.

These various connection details and fabrication options can be used to provide a flatter surface and/or more waterproofing.
Other benefits of using Flat Seam include:

Soffit systems engineered and manufactured by Zahner are the result of innovative architects, designers, and artists who challenged the norms of what to expect in the built environment. Working with Zahner to develop a custom metal soffit system begins with your design.
Custom grate systems for tree surrounds and other applications can be developed using a range of methods including custom casting and custom water jet for heavy plates in a variety of metals. Zahner will work with your team to develop the perfect system.
Zahner works with designers to develop custom lighting systems which integrate into a built facade or architectural detail.
