Colour Range special notes
  • The on screen colour due to variation in monitor display is provided to indicate the colours given as a representation of finish it may not provide the decision maker with the exact colour or effect.
  • If critical to the project hand samples can be made available to ensure a more exact colour match or product likeness.
  • It should be noted that during the production process of any coil coated product some colour or texture variation may occur between coils produced at different times or batches.
  • If colour tone or directionality is critical then cladding from the same batch should be used on the same side of building or elevation.
