Asturiana De Laminados

What Asturiana De Laminados does

Asturiana de Laminados, S.A., operating under the commercial brand elZinc, is a Spanish manufacturer of rolled zinc-titanium alloy products for architectural applications, founded in 2006 and headquartered in Pola de Lena, Asturias, Spain. The company produces zinc coils, sheets, and plates compliant with EN 988 and ASTM B69-13 standards, and is one of three largest global producers of rolled zinc. Its proprietary manufacturing capability produces coils and sheets up to 1,340mm in width — a width range no other producer offers. The product portfolio includes core rolled zinc materials alongside differentiated aesthetic finishes (elZinc Alkimi pre-patinated greys, elZinc Rainbow mineral-pigmented colors) and technical finishes (elZinc Advance with polyamide surface treatment), complemented by prefabricated systems such as facade panels, composite panels, honeycomb panels, roof tiles in five geometric variants, perforated zinc facades, and rainwater drainage systems.

The company's go-to-market combines direct enterprise sales with a global network of exclusive regional distributors and wholly-owned sales entities (elZinc Deutschland GmbH, elZinc Nederland, elZinc America) covering more than 20 countries across Europe, North America, Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and Oceania. It sells primarily to architects, property developers, and installers, targeting them upstream in the design process via BIM objects, technical documentation, sample requests, factory visits, and case studies. Pricing is quote-based and indexed to London Metal Exchange (LME) zinc reference prices, with minimum order thresholds (additional handling fees apply below 5 tonnes), FCA Villallana (Spain) delivery terms, and individually negotiated payment conditions.

The company holds ISO 9001, KOMO, CE (EN14782/EN14783), ISO 50001, and EN 988 certifications, and offers a unique lifetime warranty on its elZinc Astur and elZinc Slate products. It employs 51–100 people and is privately held as a Sociedad Anónima. In 2024–2025, the company underwent a court-supervised financial restructuring, with the final plan approved on September 4, 2025, establishing a 2025–2032 business plan to reinforce the balance sheet and underpin continued growth. Concurrent industrial R&D projects (BRIDZINC for a coating process yielding a natural, bright, durable surface finish; ZINCMET for defect-free zinc sheets for sustainable construction) are co-funded by IDEPA and FEDER.

Scale indicators3 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Broad incumbents

• Boliden: Swedish mining and smelting company producing zinc (and other base metals) as upstream input. Relevant upstream peer given elZinc's reliance on zinc raw material sourced from European smelters; Boliden's pricing and supply decisions directly affect elZinc's input cost structure.
• Umicore: Belgian materials technology and metals group with activities across zinc, copper, and specialty materials. Comparable as a European non-ferrous metals incumbent with architectural and industrial end-market exposure, though significantly larger and more diversified than elZinc.
• ArcelorMittal: World's largest steel producer, including coated and architectural flat products used in building envelopes. Competes for facade/roofing specification with elZinc at the lower-price end of the architectural metal envelope market.
• KME: Italian manufacturer of semi-finished copper and copper alloy products, including building-envelope applications. Comparable as a European non-ferrous metal building products incumbent, though broader in scope and not specialized in rolled zinc.
• Aurubis: European copper smelter and refiner whose rolled products serve the architectural and building envelope segment. Comparable as an upstream non-ferrous metal producer with architectural end-market exposure, though at much larger scale and broader scope than elZinc.
• Kingspan: Irish building envelope specialist producing insulated panels, roofing, and facade systems. Comparable as a high-performance architectural envelope supplier competing for the same architect/specifier audience, though Kingspan operates at much larger scale across multiple material categories.
• Tata Steel: Global steel manufacturer with coated and architectural product lines (including Colorcoat pre-finished steel) used in facades and roofing. Competes with elZinc for envelope specification in commercial construction, with substantially greater scale and geographic reach.

Direct peers

• RHEINZINK: German manufacturer of rolled titanium-zinc for roofing, facades, and rainwater systems — one of the two other top global producers alongside elZinc. Direct head-to-head competitor in architectural zinc with overlapping product portfolio and global distribution.
• NedZink: Dutch producer of rolled zinc for architectural applications. Direct peer with comparable product range (coils, sheets, panels) and similar European specification-led go-to-market; competes with elZinc for the same architect/specifier audience.
• VMZINC: French manufacturer of rolled zinc for building envelope applications, part of the Koramic/Weber group. Direct competitor to elZinc across coils, sheets, panels, and standing-seam systems, with strong presence in the French and broader European architectural market.
