Paint colors for SELT systems - is anything possible?

DO GÓRY
We often receive questions relating to the colors of lacquering of blinds, Reflexolas, or pergolas. Customers ask whether they will be able to match the color of the system to the color of the windows or the facade of the building.

Our first answer is that when it comes to matching the color of the construction of our systems, virtually anything is possible. We proved this by making, for example, a pink or gold pergola.  However, it is worth recalling a few aspects of the varnishing of our products to dispel any doubts.

  1. Having two state-of-the-art powder coating plants, we not only have tremendous possibilities to choose the color of the painting, but also to control the quality. SELT's painting means top quality materials and environmentally friendly technology. As you can see, painting a pergola gold is not a problem for us, although choosing non-standard colors involves an extra charge and extended production time.
  2. When selecting a shade, such as the color of the windows, we must take into account the possible minimal differences in shades on different surfaces, depending on the material. In addition, shades may vary minimally depending on the manufacturer of the powder paint used.
  3. When it comes to painting the blades of the blinds, colors outside the standard must be ordered from the supplier of the coils from which the blades are manufactured. Blinds, unlike structural components, are wet-varnished. The choice of a non-standard color of the feathers is combined with an extension of the production deadline by about 4-8 weeks and a surcharge. 
  4. plastic elements, such as plugs, remain in standard colors, as it is not possible to varnish them.

We leave the decision on the color of the system to our customers, on our side is the care that, regardless of the choice, the varnish coating is durable, and the whole system is not only functional, but also aesthetic. We invite you to familiarize yourself with our offer!
