Rigidized® Metals’ InvariMatte® micro textured stainless steel makes up the exterior panels on the Sharp Hospital in San Diego, CA. The micro texture provides easy clean-ability, durability and aesthetic appeal, while the its reflectivity deflects heat from the sun, cooling the building. More

Rigidized® Metals’ InvariMatte® micro textured metal clads the roof of the Austin Hall at Sam Houston State University. InvariMatte® is an ideal choice for roofing applications due to its consistency, self-cleanability, and solar reflectivity. It is a very energy efficient texture, providing a clean, environmentally friendly surface. Benedetto Garacci, Garacci Photography Benedetto Garacci, Garacci Photography   More

Rigidized® Metals’ Contrarian Micro Textures clad the exterior of the International Gem Tower in New York City, NY.

Rigidized® Metals’ InvariMatte® micro texture clads the parking ramp at Burlingame Point. Stainless steel is not only a very efficient reflector of solar energy, it also substantially reduces insulation requirements. Unlike other bare metals that patina, or paints that oxidize, stainless steel retains all of its original solar reflectance and energy efficiency for as long as it remains installed. Because the accumulation of dirt can have a detrimental effect on solar reflectance, the InvariMatte® surface is dirt-resistant. More
