What is Colorbond?
Secure, durable and energy smart, Colorbond® steel is one of the most popular roofing materials for homes and garages. Built in Australia, Colorbond® was the ideal solution to corrugated roofs. While corrugated roofs were robust, they corroded easily so needed regular painting. In response, Colorbond® steel was created as a better alternative.
As a pre-painted steel material with a Zincalume core, Colorbond® is strong yet lightweight. With its long lifespan, Colorbond® steel is used on roofs all across Australia. Available in a wide range of colours, the product is thermally efficient, highly resistant to corrosion and easy to maintain. Offering exceptional benefits, it’s no wonder that Colorbond® steel has become a popular roofing material.
Why Colorbond?
Thinking about building a house or looking for a new roofing alternative? Not only is Colorbond® strong and resistant, it is also the environmentally friendly choice for roof renovations. We know choosing the right roofing material will have a lasting and positive impact on the world.
Here’s a few reasons why you should consider choosing Colorbond.
THERMAL MASS
Thermal mass is all about how your home absorbs and retains heat. No one enjoys a hot house in summer, so to keep your house cool during those months, you need a proven roofing material which is effective in reflecting heat away from your house. This means you use your air conditioning a lot less and reduces your impact on energy resources. Helping you save money and the planet.
COLOUR CHOICE
Unlike other roofing materials, Colorbond® have a wide range of colours to suit your house design and location. The principal is just like choosing an outfit, light coloured clothes reflect the light, while dark coloured clothes absorb it.
The colour you choose makes a significant impact on the heat absorbed into your home. The more heat you reflect, the less energy you need to cool your home. A light-coloured Colorbond® roof sheet will reflect more light than dark sheets do. So why are there dark sheets you might think. These should only be considered if your home is well shaded by trees and not exposed to the constant sun.
LOW MAINTENANCE
Colorbond® roof sheets are a low maintenance, environmentally friendly choice. With Colorbond®, the roofing has the colour baked deep into the metal, meaning you do not need to repaint it as often as other roofing materials. Colorbond® roofs are also incredibly easy to clean. No chemicals are required, a simple pressure wash will work. This is a fast and efficient way to remove any mould and mildew that may grow over the winter.
