Regional and special colour palettes
Resene can provide Resene versions of COLORSTEEL® and COLORBOND® colours, using Resene paints, tinters and formulations.
These can be tinted for you at all Resene ColorShops and selected Resene resellers. If the colour you need isn't already formulated, Resene can arrange a colour match for you. There is no cost for this colour match service.
One of the most common requests we get to our Ask a Colour Expert service goes along the lines of 'I have this COLORSTEEL® or COLORBOND® colour, what should I use with it?'
Many decorators prefer to get inspired by the full range of Resene colours and our colour expert can guide them through our colour range to decide on a palette. Others prefer to limit themselves to just matches of COLORBOND® or COLORSTEEL® colours.
If you prefer to keep to the COLORBOND® or COLORSTEEL® palette or you're looking for a paint colour match to a COLORBOND® or COLORSTEEL® colour, we recommend you use the Resene Roof Systems colour chart. This chart has a collection of colours especially designed for roofs, including matches to popular COLORBOND® and COLORSTEEL® colours. Each colour has noted underneath the chip the colour name of the COLORBOND® or COLORSTEEL® colour it matches.
Many of these colours are available in Resene CoolColour™ technology designed to reduce exterior heat build up compared to a normal paint colour – look for the cc beside the colour name. The COLORBOND® and COLORSTEEL® Resene colour matches can be tinted into a wide range of Resene paints.
In addition to these colours, there are other popular Resene roofing colours including aluminium and micaceous iron oxide options. As well as the colour chart, all these colours are also available for ordering online or from your local Resene ColorShop in A4 drawdown paint swatches and Resene testpots.
Pick up a free Resene Roof Systems chart from any Resene owned ColorShop or order your free copy online. Always check a physical sample of the colour before making your final choice.
Resene colours with COLORBOND® and/or COLORSTEEL® noted beside them have been colour matched to the equivalent COLORBOND® and/or COLORSTEEL® colour samples in 2009. If an exact match is required we recommend you check your chosen colour against the actual sample of the product prior to purchasing. COLORBOND® is a registered trademark of Bluescope Steel Limited. COLORSTEEL® is a registered trademark of New Zealand Steel Limited.
These colours are a representation only. Please refer to the actual paint or product sample. Resene colour charts, testpots and samples are available for ordering online.
