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.
