Design Advantages & Key Benefits
The flexibility of COLORBOND® steel walling
Wall cladding made from COLORBOND® steel gives you yet another design option for a home that’s uniquely beautiful and extremely practical.
Design freedom
Wall cladding made from COLORBOND® steel is available in a standard range of 20 designer colours to match your roof or complement your other building material choices.
Its continuous length and pliable nature means it can be curved and shaped to suit your home’s design.
For something really special COLORBOND® Metallic steel gives stunning effect to prestige homes.
COLORBOND® Metallic steel has restricted use in marine locations, for further information please see our page on Effect of Location.
Energy efficient
Properly insulated, steel wall cladding can help reduce the heat entering and leaving your home, in turn helping you to keep your energy bills down.
Strong, durable and secure
COLORBOND® steel is made with the strength of corrosion resistant steel to provide long-lasting protection for your home.
As a wall cladding material, it’s a tough barrier to wind, hailstorm, falling branches and flying debris. Added to that, it's non-combustible and termite resistant.
And, of course, the superior oven-baked finish of COLORBOND® steel resists chipping, flaking and blistering in normal weather conditions.
Time and cost-saving installation
Because it’s available in lightweight, continuous length sheets, it's fast and easy to erect - reducing construction time and keeping labour costs to a minimum.
Easy to maintain
For the most part, an occasional wash down is all that’s required to keep your exterior wall cladding looking great.
A walling choice for any location
BlueScope Steel makes a range of COLORBOND® steel products to suit different environments.
Standard COLORBOND® steel will suit most locations and building applications.
However, if you’re building in harsh environments - for example, close to the ocean or in an area subject to industrial emissions - BlueScope Steel recommends the use of COLORBOND® Stainless steel and COLORBOND® Ultra steel.
