AZENGAR® 3R
Sustainable development as a driver of innovation
At VM Building Solutions, we are committed to an innovative and circular construction sector where future-oriented building and responsibility go hand in hand. All VMZINC products are maintenance-free and can be completely recycled at the end of their service life. With the introduction of AZENGAR 3R, we are now going one step further.
AZENGAR 3R is made from 100% recycled titanium zinc produced from external production waste – zinc that would otherwise have been downcycled. Instead, we preserve its full value and give it new life in a product that meets the same high technical standards as newly manufactured zinc. By using this secondary zinc material, we reduce the need for new resources and extend the life cycle of the material.
Set new standards with AZENGAR 3R
AZENGAR 3R is clear proof of our commitment to sustainable and circular construction.
With a carbon footprint of just 0.70 kg CO₂ per kg of zinc, AZENGAR 3R sets a new benchmark in the industry. Not only is this over 60% less than the most sustainable zinc alternatives on the market, it is also almost 80% less than the most CO₂-efficient aluminium, underlining the strong environmental profile and technical quality of AZENGAR 3R.

Reduce
- Savings of at least 80% energy thanks to an innovative production process.
- Reduction of CO₂ emissions by 80% by minimising resource extraction
to an absolute minimum*
Reuse
- AZENGAR® 3R is made from 100% recycled titanium zinc from
external production waste. - By using this secondary zinc material, we reduce the need for new resources.
Recycle
- At the end of its service life, the material can be fully recycled.
- AZENGAR® 3R actively contributes to conserving valuable resources and reducing waste.

Azengar – zinc with character
AZENGAR from VMZINC has a unique, matt textured surface that highlights the raw and authentic look of zinc. The special finish captures the light in a way that gives a light, grey and refined tone – with a subtle play that gives the material depth.
AZENGAR gives architecture a lively and aesthetic expression, and the material interacts beautifully with other surfaces and structures in modern buildings.
