COLORSTEEL® Matte
Description

COLORSTEEL® Matte offers a refined, elegant aesthetic through an innovative new paint technology, specially designed to diffuse light for a soft textured look. An ideal solution for roofing and wall cladding systems that demand a contemporary and sophisticated style. COLORSTEEL® Matte incorporates microwrinkle technology to create a more textured finish with both subtlety and depth.

Unlike gloss, semi-gloss or even low-gloss surfaces, COLORSTEEL Matte has a soft, textured aesthetic and a depth of colour not seen in other products.

This new innovation provides the same quality expected from all other COLORSTEEL® products — it is made, tested and trusted for New Zealand conditions.

  • Available in three colours: FlaxPod®, TidalDrift®, and StonePeak™
  • COLORSTEEL® Matte is ideal for roofing, cladding, fascia, rainwater goods and garage panel door applications
  • Available in a range of profiles
