Standard Colors

Our standard Polyvinylidene Difluoride (PVDF), has a chemical composition that gives it high mechanical strength and superior abrasion resistance. The tough engineering thermoplastic has increased durability, excellent chemical resistance to halogen and acids that can cause degradation. The surface of PVDF panels is able to handle high temperatures and extensive ultraviolet ray exposure while resisting fading and chalking for longer than SMP painted panels.

By using aluminum roofing and siding panels in PVDF paint, you will have vibrant and attractive painted aluminum panels for longer than any other paint system.
