Colorbond has introduced a new matte finish that diffuses light to create a soft, textured look.

Available in Surfmist Matte, Shale Grey Matte, Dune Matte, Basalt Matte and Monument Matte, the Colorbond steel matte paint is an ideal solution for roofing and walling systems that need design versatility.

Colorbond steel matte is made and backed by BlueScope, which offers warranties of up to 36 years for peace of mind.

“The Colorbond steel matte paint technology was developed to give the industry an accessible, yet highly attractive and versatile design material that provides a softer finish to complement the move towards more natural looking materials in residential building,” says BlueScope manager of marketing and market development Lisa Dent.

Colorbond steel matte has been tested for over a decade and was designed for the hot Australian sun. The result is a product that is manufactured in Australia, is compliant with relevant Australian standards and maintains its matte finish.

Colorbond steel matte incorporates BlueScope’s Thermatech solar reflective technology and Activate metallic coating technology for enhanced corrosion resistance.

“The new Colorbond steel matte collection offers builders a range of neutral hues and a colour palette with the depth and versatility to adapt to any house type,” says Lisa.
