Color coated aluminum is an ideal material for gutter systems, offering durability, versatility and aesthetic appeal.
Color coated aluminum is an ideal material for gutter systems, offering durability, versatility and aesthetic appeal. Its corrosion resistant surface coating ensures long-term protection against rust and weathering, making it suitable for various climates.
The commonly used aluminum alloys are in the 3000 series, mainly in the 3105 and 3003, with forming properties meeting the needs of the machines used for gutter profile and presses used for the accessories.
The aluminum gutter coil is usually coated on both sides with the same coating system but often in different colour combinations. This allows the customer the flexibility to select either colour for the decorative face of the installation, whilst at the same time giving added performance on the inside of the gutter.
Color coated aluminum gutters are easy to install and maintain, reducing labor costs and the risk of structural damage from heavy materials. With a wide range of colors available, these gutters seamlessly blend with building exteriors, enhancing curb appeal while efficiently channeling rainwater away from roofs and foundations. Whether for residential or commercial properties, color aluminum gutter systems provide a reliable, low-maintenance solution for effective water management.
