Rheinzink participates in the energy renovation of the Chenôve town hall

To carry out this work, the Town Hall of Chenôve called on Sarl Gentil, which specializes in carrying out zinc roofing work. The latter naturally turned to Rheinzink, with whom it has been working for several years, for the quality of its products and the availability of its sales and technical teams.

Spread over several phases, the work of the town hall of Chenôve began in 2017 with the renovation of the main facade, the renovation of its roof and the replacement of its windows. In March 2021, the town hall entered its second phase of work by renovating the facade of the Cour d'Honneur and the adjoining buildings. The project, designed and managed by Pauline Bernard, from BAU Architecte, the design office and the Town Hall of Chenôve, was to offer a modern, welcoming and environmentally friendly building.

This second phase began in March 2021 and was finalized in December 2021, i.e. a duration of eight months and took place in three stages: insulation of the attic, restoration of the zinc roofing and installation of cladding.

To produce the roofing and the cladding, the PRISMO range from Rheinzink was selected. The red RHEINZINK-PRISMO zinc attracts attention and fits naturally into the landscape. Its semi-transparent varnish lets the grain of the zinc show through and its colored surface offers protection in various climates and environmental influences.

Zinc was used in particular to make the white lacquered zinc gutters and the slate colored gutters. In total, the zinc was laid over 460 m² of the building and 360 m² for the cladding, two thirds of which were PRISMO red and one third pure white artCOLOR.

100% recyclable, zinc is one of the most sustainable and ecological building materials. It corresponds in all respects to the desire for energy performance of the Town Hall of Chenôve.
