Color Guide
Durable, Lasting Color
Architects who choose PAC-CLAD architectural metal cladding know the color they specify will not chip, chalk, peel or fade for decades. Their confidence comes from knowing that PAC-CLAD finishes are made with Kynar 500® high-performance fluoropolymer resin, which helps them endure the assault from environmental exposure and protect against weathering, aging and pollution. PAC-CLAD metal cladding from Petersen will look as good in 30 years as it does on day one, thanks to its extraordinary capability to retain color and gloss, while keeping painted metal looking vibrant and appealing. It's also a key component of sustainable design for commercial, industrial, institutional and residential buildings. The PAC-CLAD finish is a Fluropon® 70% PVDF coating made by Sherwin-Williams using Kynar 500® resin. Kynar 500® is a registered trademark of Arkema Inc.
