Colorbond Cladding
Colorbond® is a lead-free paint that is applied on a steel core. It is more than just “painted steel” since it provides the highest protection and durability for your homes and buildings that ordinary paint cannot. Colorbond® has been utilised in Australian homes for almost 50 years! Why? Colorbond® is designed to endure the harsh conditions seen in Australia. To fulfil Australia’s high grade and strength standards, it has completed several tests such as corrosion, durability, exposure, and application testing for all applications.

Cladding designs, styles and cladding profiles we install
Our Cladding Profiles
Standing Seam
Standing Seam delivers a conventional, polished aesthetic and maximum versatility. Standing Seam delivers on detailed designs. The concealed anchoring mechanism of the system is excellent for dramatic residential and commercial architectural facades.
Standing Seam is suitable for both roof and wall cladding which makes it ideal for dynamic architectural cladding.
Nailstrip
Nailstrip has similar aesthetics to Standing Seam and Snaplock. Nailstrip has a simplified installation process making it a popular choice for builders wanting a low fuss installation process. Nailstrip panels can be manufactured in an array of widths to tailor to most projects.
Interlocking
Interlocking has a smooth and modern profile design. The dramatic express joins and flat appearance of Interlocking cladding creates a sleek and clean looking façade for modern architectural structures.
Interlocking’s large tray widths and variable express connects, which are solely suitable for wall cladding, allow for the creation of unique and different wall solutions.
Flat Lock
Flatlock panels are a basic yet appealing cladding option that gives a flat seam finish. On all four sides the method uses a basic interlocking fold. Flatlock offers a simple, yet elegant cladding option characterised by a longitudinal seam on a horizontal, vertical or diagonal bias.
Recessed Flat Lock
Recessed Flatlock is an elegant method that produces a smooth surface with a faint negative detail.
The panel is folded with a recess and an additional layer of plywood is installed; it is a versatile solution with maximum resistance.
Snap Lock
Snaplock has a sleek profile and is perfectly adaptable to new architectural developments. Snaplock has a simpler installation method but resembles Standing Seam.
Snaplock panels “snap” together for easy installation. The completed finish is smooth due to the concealed fixing system.
