Colorbond Roofing Perth
What to know about Colorbond Roofing
In Australia, buildings are exposed to some extreme weather conditions, ranging from extremes with both hot and cold temperatures, light rains to heavy hail and slight dust to strong winds.
With Western Australia and Perth in particular being so close to the coastline, coastal elements, like salt, are highly corrosive and one of the main reasons why maintenance can be required.
However, Colorbond Steel is tested through all these conditions during manufacturing and it is one of the main contributing factors as to why Colorbond roofing is so widely used across the country.
Colorbond steel is manufactured in Australia and to the Australian regulated standards (AS1397 and AS/NZS 2728). There are five layers of protection within the steel – including a topcoat, primer, pre-treatment, metallic coating and then the steel itself. Due to this, Colorbond roofing has ample longevity and durability that other roofing materials available are lacking.
