Sydney Tower,
NSW, Australia
The Sydney Tower
(formerly known as the AMP Tower) is the second tallest free-standing
structure in Australia,
standing at 305m. The top of the tower is anodised aluminium.
The
Tower had not been cleaned for many years, had become badly stained and
had lost a lot of its golden colour. In preparation for the 2000
Olympic Games it was decided to renovate the tower.
A
team of abseilers renovated the aluminium to restore the tower back to
its original glory. Ritecoat was then applied to maintain the
golden appearance and help with future maintenance.
Toshiba Osaka Building,
Japan
This
building is located in the centre of Osaka City.
The exterior wall of aluminium panels is always subject to air
pollution and exhaust fumes. It had also been deteriorated by UV rays
and stained black by rain.
Some
2,000m2 of external anodised aluminium panels were renovated
and protected with the Ritecoat System.
As a
result of three-year comparative trial applications with a competitive
resin coating, the superiority of Ritecoat is well recognised.
