Dirty Penny™

DIRTY PENNY PREWEATHERED COPPER PATINA

Dirty Penny copper is a premium surface developed by Zahner to provide artists and architects with a stunning architectural surface unlike any other. The preweathered copper features light and dark tones ranging from blues to greens and reds.

An iridescent surface, the material benefits from a microfilm which develops on the exterior layer of the material. The oxidized layer is like a living protecting barrier which grows and evolves as it further oxidizes.

As part of the Zahner sustainability mission, each of the patinated metal products produced by Zahner are developed in the company’s EPA certified facility in Grand Prairie, Texas. The award-winning facility follows environmental practices in producing sustainable copper, zinc and steel surfaces with custom patination, ensuring that the community water supply isn’t damaged by the use of improper waste disposal.
