Every standard colour comes in gloss or matt, except RAL 1035 Pearl beige, which is made in 88% gloss only and takes longer to arrive.

Over 200 RAL Classic colours in all. Those outside the standard range cost extra: gloss 30 or 77 on aluminium, gloss 20 on wood.
Also available
- Glazing beads Supplied in grey. RAL 7035Light grey
- Spacers and gaskets Grey or black spacers between the panes. Gaskets in grey or black, the same inside and out.
- Granite textured coatings A powder coat that looks and feels like rough-cut granite, from white through greys and blues to black. VELFAC’s UK team advise against it beside aluminium cills or pressings, as a colour match cannot be guaranteed.
- Metallic coatings A powder coat with a metallic sheen, offered alongside the granite finishes as a special option. Like granite, it is quoted per project.
- Anodised finishes A protective anodised surface in bronze, silver or black. It is a natural process, so shades can vary between elements and from the sample.
- Raw aluminium Aluminium left without surface treatment, subject to VELFAC’s reservations. Not available on sandwich panels.
- NCS colours A range of NCS colours for the timber inside, at extra cost.
