The Innovation That Changed
Pre-Finished Metal

Flexible Resin Coating Technology That Lets You Form, Bend, and Fabricate—Without Cracking, Crazing, or Compromise

Vitranar® is Fairview Architectural’s breakthrough flexible resin coating technology that fundamentally changes what’s possible with pre-finished aluminum and steel. Engineered specifically for formed architectural applications, Vitranar’s advanced polymer formulation remains elastic during fabrication—allowing complex bends, tight radii, and intricate shapes while maintaining flawless finish integrity. The result? You eliminate post-painting entirely, reduce production time, lower costs, and deliver perfectly finished components faster than ever before.

Explore Applications

Why Vitranar® Represents a Fundamental Shift in Metal Fabrication

For decades, metal fabricators faced an impossible choice:

OPTION A: Paint before forming

→ Result: Cracking, crazing, and finish damage at every bend

OPTION B: Form then paint

→ Result: Added cost, extended lead times, coordination headaches, and inconsistent quality

Vitranar® eliminates this compromise entirely.

By engineering coating resins that remain flexible during forming, Vitranar allows you to receive pre-finished metal, form it into complex shapes, and deliver components with factory-perfect finish quality—all without a single post-painting step.

This isn’t an incremental improvement. It’s a transformation in how architectural metal components are manufactured.

The Science Behind the Flexibility

ADVANCED POLYMER TECHNOLOGY

Vitranar’s proprietary resin formulation is engineered at the molecular level to maintain elasticity even after curing. Unlike traditional coatings that become rigid, Vitranar’s polymers flex and flow during bending—preventing the micro-fractures that cause cracking and crazing.

PRECISION ROLL-COATING APPLICATION

Applied via controlled roll-coating process, Vitranar delivers:

  • Uniform coating thickness across entire surface
  • Consistent color and finish quality
  • Superior adhesion to substrate
  • Predictable performance during forming

AVAILABLE ON MULTIPLE SUBSTRATES

  • Aluminum (3000, 5000 series)
  • Steel (galvanized, galvalume)
  • Sheet or coil form
THE RESULT: Pre-finished metal that performs better than raw material during fabrication—delivering factory-perfect finish quality.

What Vitranar® Means for Your Operation

ELIMINATE POST-PAINTING

Why Continuous Insulation Matters More Than Ever

Rising energy costs and increasingly stringent building codes demand façade systems that deliver real thermal performance—not just compliance checkboxes. Traditional continuous insulation approaches that use standoffs or sub-girts create thermal bridging at structural connections, undermining efficiency and increasing operational costs over the building’s lifetime.

Continuous Insulation (CI), as defined by ASHRAE 90.1, is:

“Insulation that is uncompressed and continuous across all structural members without thermal bridges other than fasteners and service openings.”

In simple terms: it’s like wrapping your building in a blanket—eliminating weak points where heat escapes and energy dollars are wasted.

But achieving true continuous insulation isn’t just about adding insulation, or even adding standoffs that project through the insulation—it’s about integrating thermal performance with fire safety, structural integrity, and installation efficiency. That’s where RapidWrapCI® delivers.

One System. Complete Performance. Zero Compromise.

Thermal performance icon
PROVEN THERMAL PERFORMANCE

The RapidWrapCI® mounting system performs with both polyiso insulation and non-combustible mineral wool insulation, without using standoffs, furring or sub-girts. The result? No thermal bridging, lower energy bills, improved occupant comfort, and enhanced building efficiency that meets or exceeds ASHRAE 90.1 requirements.

Fire safety icon
CERTIFIED FIRE SAFETY

Full NFPA 285 compliance means RapidWrapCI® has passed rigorous large-scale fire testing. You get peace of mind knowing your building envelope meets the most stringent fire safety standards—protecting occupants, property, and your liability exposure.

Integration icon

Why Precision Finishing Protects Your Design

And Your Reputation

You’ve invested in premium façade materials, refined the color palette, and perfected every design detail. Then your vision gets compromised by mismatched flashing that disrupts visual continuity, fades at different rates, or simply doesn’t integrate with your primary cladding.

The problem isn’t just aesthetic; it’s accountability. When flashing comes from a different supplier with different coatings, you face:

  • Color mismatches that compromise design intent
  • Varying fade rates that create visual inconsistency over time
  • Coordination headaches across multiple vendors
  • Warranty confusion when problems arise
  • Installation delays waiting for “close enough” matches

Edgeline® eliminates these compromises. Perfect color matching. Identical coating quality. Single-source simplicity. Your design stays intact, from ribbon cutting to decades later.

Premium Pre-Finished Flashing Material Engineered

for Lasting Design Integrity

Edgeline is Fairview Architectural’s pre-finished aluminum flashing material, available in 0.032″ and 0.040″ thicknesses, featuring the same premium Vitranar flexible-resin finishes as our Vitrabond FR® and Vitraplate® cladding systems.

PERFECT COLOR MATCHING

Every Edgeline sheet is finished with the identical coating process and color formulation as your façade panels. Not “close”—identical. Your parapets, sills, and beam wraps integrate seamlessly, maintaining perfect visual continuity across every transition.

FADE RESISTANCE GUARANTEED

Because Edgeline uses the same premium coil coating as your primary cladding, everything ages together. No differential fading. No visual disruption years later. Your building looks cohesive and intentional—permanently.

Edgeline in Action

FEATURED PROJECT:

Oregon State University – Collaborative Life Sciences Building

When Oregon State University specified a custom maple woodgrain finish for their Collaborative Life Sciences Building, maintaining visual consistency across the entire façade—including copings, caps, and trim—was critical to the design’s success.

THE CHALLENGE:

Custom finishes are notoriously difficult to match across different materials and suppliers. Any variation would have disrupted the carefully crafted design intent.

THE SOLUTION:

Fairview Architectural provided both Vitrabond® cladding panels and Edgeline® flashing material in the identical custom maple woodgrain pattern finish—ensuring perfect color matching and fade resistance across every façade component.

THE RESULT:

Seamless visual integration from panels to trim. One supplier. One finish. Complete design integrity—preserved for the building’s lifetime.

What Is Vitraplate®?

Vitraplate®: Premium 3mm (1/8″) Solid Aluminum Cladding Material

Vitraplate® is a 3mm (1/8″) thick, pre-finished, 100% solid aluminum material featuring our industry-leading Vitranar flexible-resin roll-coated finish — or an anodized option for architectural-grade durability and aesthetics.

Every panel combines the design flexibility of ACM with the strength, rigidity, and non-combustibility of solid aluminum, giving you architectural freedom without compromise.

Pre-Finished Precision

No Painting. No Waiting. No Risk.

Why wait for post-painting when you can start fabricating immediately, with a higher quality finish?

Vitraplate® arrives ready to fabricate, pre-finished with Fairview Architectural’s proprietary Vitranar® flexible-resin coatings for long-term color consistency, corrosion resistance, and superior weatherability.

Vitraplate® vs. Painted Aluminum

Vitraplate® is manufactured using proprietary coating and leveling technology, developed in-house specifically for the building facade industry. The formability and durability of VItraplate cannot be achieved by traditional spray painting, post-painting, or even former coil coating technologies. This is why Vitraplate(R) is backed by the industry’s only non-prorated transferable repair and replace warranty, for terms as long as 40 years even on the coast!

]]> Edgeline Metal Flashing Material https://fairview-na.com/edgeline/ Sun, 01 Dec 2024 19:23:00 +0000 https://fairview-na.com/?page_id=14169

PREMIUM METAL FLASHING MATERIAL THAT IS COLOR MATCHED TO YOUR PRIMARY BUILDING FINISH

Fairview’s Edgeline premium metal flashing material, also known as flat sheets, is a pre-finished product available in 0.032” and 0.040” thicknesses. This durable product guarantees fade resistance thanks to the superior coil coating on all Edgeline panels that guarantees that they will perform for the lifetime of the facade finish.

Edgeline  is available in 3000 or 5000 series aluminum depending on your specific needs. Our Edgeline flashing materials are available in the same premium coil coated finish PVDF Kynar paint system as Vitrabond FR aluminum composite and Vitraplate 3mm(1/8″) solid metal plate products. These products used together on a building facade will look the same not only from project completion but also for years to come as they are exact match in terms of finish but also paint quality.

Edgeline is an ideal solution if you are looking to achieve a seamless look on your project. This can be especially desirable if you are using a custom finish(es). All of our flashing material is available in the exact color of your building facade panels and we are also able to color match specific custom finishes.

STREAMLINE YOUR MANUFACTURING WITH DURABLE PRE-FINISHED ALUMINUM AND STEEL

Vitranar Flexible Resin Coatings

WHAT IS VITRANAR®?

Vitranar® is a flexible resin coating developed specifically for formed aluminum and steel applications in architecture.

This high quality coating technology allows the resins to flow and flex when aluminum and steel is folded or bent to reduce or even eliminate cracking or crazing, depending on the forming methods used. Eliminating the post-painting process saves time, money, and labor.

 

Proudly Made in the USA

Fairview Architectural is dedicated to providing the highest quality prefinished aluminum cladding. That’s why we’ve invested significantly in bringing manufacturing to the USA.

By sourcing materials domestically, you ensure consistent quality, reduce environmental impact, support the local economy, and benefit from faster lead times. Plus, you can avoid tariffs on imported products.

VITRANAR® OVERCOMES CHALLENGES ACROSS MULIPLE MARKETS

TRANSPORTATION HUBS

SPORTS & ENTERTAINMENT

ENERGY & INFRASTRUCTURE

HIGH-RISE CONSTRUCTION

MATERIALS

Vitranar® flexible resin coatings can be applied to a base material of either steel or aluminum.
Depending on the intended use of the coated metal, multiple coating types can be used to achieve any solid, mica, metallic, patterned or chromatic finish.

BASE MATERIAL:

  • Steel
  • Aluminum

COATINGS:

  • PVDF Kynar 500
  • Polyester
  • SMP

APPLICATIONS

Aluminum or steel that is coated with Vitranar® is available in sheet or coil form depending on the intended fabrication / forming method being used.

COILS

Coils of aluminum or steel are typically used for products that are formed or fabricated in a continuous process, such as roll forming or stamping.

SHEETS

Sheets of aluminum or steel are commonly used for forming panels, flashing and coping, or curtainwall components. Vitranar® is used in sheet applications such as Vitraplate® and Vitrabond®. 

ENVIRONMENTALLY CONSCIOUS

Low environmental impact due to controlled, high-efficiency process, leading to minimized waste, lower VOC emissions, and improved energy efficiency.

FULLY RECYCLABLE

Aluminum is 100% recycable, and 75% of all aluminum ever produced is still in circulation today. This is a result of aluminum not losing intergrity when recycled, therefore contributing to a truly circular economy.

LOW VOC EMISSIONS

Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC), are chemicals that evaporate easily at room temperature, therefore posing high health and environmental risks. Spray painting releases VOC’s into the air, while coil-coating reduces or even elimates the VOC spread, therefore helping the environment and the health of those in the manufacturing.

EFFICIENT MANUFACUTRING PROCESS

Coil-coating is a continuous manufacturing process that reduces all coating steps into one step. Not only does this reduce manufacturing time, it also reduces wasted materials. Any wasted materials are recycled and fed back into the aluminum supply chain, contributing to a fully circular economy.

KEY BENEFITS

FLEXIBILITY

The resins used in coil coatings are formulated to be elastic and bendable, allowing many forming and bending methods to be used without cracking or peeling the paint.

PROCESS

Vitranar® coated metal is available in both sheet and coil form, making it conducive to a wide variety of manufacturing processes, while reducing the number of manufacturing steps by eliminating the need for post-painting.

COMPLEX DESIGNS

Form complex shapes and intricate designs with the assurance of uniform and accurate coating of the entire manufactured component.

COST

Coil coating is a high-volume automated process, and it reduces additional manufacturing costs.

DURABILITY

Due to the higher quality resins and controlled application methods, Vitranar® coated aluminum and steel can be backed by warranties as high as 40 years, even in coastal environments.

T

CONSISTENCY

Precision controlled automated uniform application system ensures consistency in coating thickness and color.

COLOR OPTIONS

The Vitranar® Pre-Finishing process allows for endless colors, finishes and patterns. Available colors include solid, mica, metallic, chromatic and patterned finishes.

SPEED

Due to the reduced manufacturing processes, prefinished coil-coated aluminum and steel have reduced lead times. Faster manufacturing processes reduce the risk of costly project delays and increased costs.

BUY AMERICA

Federally funded projects require products Made in the USA. Buying American made products not only gives high quality, but contributes to the local economy, further boosting capabilities.
