Citizen Cooling Solutions Limited is the leading Brass supplier in the Kenyan market and across the borders.
Brass is mainly an alloy that consists of copper with zinc added. Brasses can have varying amounts of zinc or other elements added. These varying mixtures produce a wide range of properties and variation in color. Increased amounts of zinc provide the material with improved strength and ductility. Brass can range in color from red to yellow depending on the amount of zinc added to the alloy. If the brass contains over 39% zinc it will have a higher strength and lower ductility (at room temperature).
