Metal cladding provides a maintenance free material with a selection of colours and profiles.
Thirteen years later, Sean Maxwell of Moulton College Equestrian Centre confirms the performance of the cladding: "The college required a cost effective and durable construction material for the equestrian centre so Colorfarm was the most natural choice.
The range of colours enabled our building to harmonise with its setting, whilst the interior lighting is optimised by the natural looking Chalk White.
Since the equestrian centre was built in 1991, we have carried out minimal maintenance and the building remains in excellent condition to this day." The Colorfarm coating system comprises a high-build, flexible anti-corrosion primer and flexible exterior grade topcoat on a hot-dipped zinc steel substrate.
This provides a triple layer of protection against corrosion, making Colorfarm products ideal for conditions commonly found in agricultural environments.
Agricultural cladding products need to provide resistance to humidity and corrosion agents both inside and outside the building.
Colorfarm is available on a double-sided product, Colorfarm AP and a single-sided product, Colorfarm BP, to provide cost effective and durable solutions for both single and twin-skinned buildings.
Readily available in colours that harmonise with the rural environment and existing farm buildings, the durable Colorfarm range offers agricultural specifiers and contractors a range of pre-finished steel cladding products specifically designed for all farming applications.
