These two base metals, when combined, form around 60 types of alloys currently in use. Adding other metals creates even more alloy varieties. Brass, for instance, is found in numerous everyday products such as pipes, fittings, ship propellers, automotive components, precision mechanics, electrical engineering, and electronics. The list goes on.
Copper is often referred to as the "gold" of climate change due to its use in electric vehicles, solar energy systems, and wind power infrastructure. The trend toward sustainable energy production is expected to result in a supply deficit, according to forecasts. Copper materials are also used in superconductors for CERN’s particle accelerator, in components for NASA rockets, and even in parts produced by 3D printers.
The ongoing drive for decarbonization and digitization is increasing the need for semiconductors, which convert, transmit, and regulate electrical energy. The largest copper reserves are found in Peru, Chile, and Australia.
Just like copper, zinc is an indispensable metal, widely used in mechanical engineering, construction, and automotive manufacturing. Industry utilizes zinc as an alloying metal or for cast parts. Approximately 60% of global zinc consumption goes toward corrosion protection for steel. Zinc coatings also enhance the weather resistance of solar panels and wind turbines, particularly offshore wind installations.
In the development of sustainable buildings - an area where the construction industry is becoming increasingly eco-friendly - zinc’s role is growing. Zinc offers low maintenance, adaptability, a long lifespan, and excellent thermal and acoustic properties, making it an ideal material for modern architecture.
