Explore Color Options For Architectural Metal Systems
Berridge Manufacturing offers a wide range of metal roof colors and metal siding colors designed to support both performance and design flexibility. Whether you are specifying materials for a commercial development, restoration project or custom build, color selection plays a critical role in durability, visual consistency and long-term performance. Explore available finishes, color groupings and technical resources to support selection and specification.
Understanding Metal Finish Types
Color performance begins with the coating system. Berridge products are manufactured using advanced coil coating processes to ensure consistent color application and long-term durability.

Kynar 500® Or Hylar 5000® PVDF Resin-Based Color Finishes
Berridge uses Kynar 500® or Hylar 5000® PVDF resin-based color finishes for its prefinished architectural metal products. These finishes are designed for long-term color retention and resistance to fading and chalking, supporting architectural applications where appearance and durability are both important.
Metallic Finishes
Metallic coatings incorporate reflective elements that create subtle movement and variation depending on lighting conditions. These finishes are often specified for contemporary architectural designs.
Print Pattern And Woodgrain Finishes
Our print pattern finishes offer additional design options beyond solid colors. Woodgrain finishes recreate the natural variation and appearance of wood while providing the benefits of prefinished architectural metal.
Because print patterns can appear differently on screens and printed materials, review a physical sample before making a final color selection.
Metal Roof And Siding Color Categories
Berridge organizes its color offerings to make it easier to compare finish options and select the right color for a project.
Standard Colors
A broad range of commonly specified colors designed to meet typical architectural and commercial needs. These colors are widely available across multiple systems.
Premium Colors
Expanded color options that support more specific design requirements. These selections are often used when projects require a distinct visual identity or tighter alignment with design specifications.
Custom Color Matching
For projects requiring exact color alignment, custom color matching may be available depending on volume and system compatibility. This allows alignment with brand standards or existing structures.
Choosing The Right Color For Your Project
Selecting the right color involves more than visual preference. Consider the following factors during evaluation:
- Design intent: Consider how the color complements surrounding materials, architectural details and the overall building design.
- Environmental exposure: UV exposure, climate and project location can influence how a finish appears over time.
- Physical samples: Review an actual color sample before making a final selection, since colors and finishes can appear differently on screens and printed materials.
- Solar performance: SRI values can help compare the solar performance of different color options.
Reviewing color charts, physical samples and technical resources can help support a more informed color selection.
Understanding Solar Reflectance Index Values
Solar Reflectance Index (SRI) measures how effectively a surface reflects solar heat and releases absorbed heat. SRI values vary by color, making them a useful consideration when evaluating roofing finishes for energy performance, sustainability goals or LEED requirements.
Berridge provides SRI values for its available colors to help architects, contractors and other project professionals compare options during specification.
