ArcelorMittal Europe – Flat Products Solano Nature Pure and robust, as required by nature Solano® Nature is a robust, flexible and corrosion resistant organic coated steel specifically developed for roof and wall cladding applications in demanding environments, including industrial and coastal. Solano® Nature is a phthalate-free, chromate-free and heavy metal-free paint system of 200 μm, combined with a hot dip galvanised or galfan substrate. Solano® Nature is free of StampNspired-noYears.pdf 1 16/04/15 chromates and heavy metals Many plastisol organic coated steel can be found on the market, but only Solano® Nature is able to provide a full chromate and heavy metal free solution, combining a high performing paint and a galvanised or galfan substrate. An extended range of applications Advantages • Robust 200 µm organic coating • Excellent corrosion resistance • Highly flexible • Leathergrain pattern • Free of chromates and heavy metals The leathergrain finish of Solano® Nature Excellent corrosion resistance Solano® Nature is the right choice to protect the envelopes of buildings erected in continental and oceanic Europe. It can be processed by bending, cold roll forming and deep drawing without damaging the surface. It can also be assembled with joining techniques such as clinching, riveting and adhesive bonding. The thermoplastic paints provide high surface robustness and ease of handling during envelope construction. Solano® Nature is supplied on a special metallic coated protective substrate that provides superior corrosion resistance, even on cut edges. Galfan coating substrate (ZA 265 g/sqm) provides the best corrosion resistance.

Durable aesthetics Colour palette Solano® Nature uses state-of-the-art thermoplastic paint technology with improved UV resistance. It has been repeatedly exposed to natural weathering elements – e.g. light, water and temperature. These tests have proven its suitability for most of continental and oceanic Europe areas (defined as zone 1). Solano® Nature fully complies with European RUV3 classification (European standard EN 10169/2) with regards to UV radiation. 17 colours are available in the palette, regrouped in four different categories. Robustness and luxury design are assured by the embossed...
