# RAL coating to match your facade.

> RAL coating for the aluminium frames of glass curtains, roofs and pergolas: most requested shades, finishes and coating for homeowners and businesses.

## What is RAL coating?

RAL coating covers aluminium frames in paint of one exact code from the RAL chart, such as RAL 7016, so the enclosure matches your windows and facade. In many residential buildings that code is set in the community rules. New LUNEKS enclosures can be ordered in a RAL colour, with a site visit and measuring before the quote.

## Which RAL colours are most popular for enclosures?

A few RAL Classic shades often seen on architectural aluminium. Any other code can be ordered.

| Code | Name | Where it works |
| --- | --- | --- |
| RAL 9016 | Traffic white | White facades and white windows, the most common shade on the coast |
| RAL 9010 | Pure white | A slightly warmer white, for cream coloured facades |
| RAL 1013 | Oyster white | Homes in sand and stone tones, typical Mediterranean facades |
| RAL 7016 | Anthracite grey | Modern architecture, penthouses and dark window frames |
| RAL 9005 | Jet black | Industrial style and venues that want a bold frame |
| RAL 8017 | Chocolate brown | Wood effect or brown frames on older buildings |

## Do you coat for homeowners and for businesses?

Homeowners usually ask for coating so a new enclosure does not clash with their existing windows. In many residential buildings the colour of facade aluminium is set in the community rules, and then the RAL code is a requirement rather than a choice.

Businesses order coating for batches of profiles, for projects with a specified colour or to give a venue its brand colour. (to be confirmed)

## Questions about RAL coating

### Can I choose any colour from the RAL chart?

The RAL Classic chart has more than two hundred shades, each identified by its code. (to be confirmed)

### How do I find the RAL code of my windows?

Sometimes it is on the invoice or a sticker on the frame. If not, compare against a physical RAL fan deck, because colours look different on screen.

### Does the coating stand up to sun and sea salt?

Powder coating for exterior aluminium is designed for sun and weather, and there are dedicated quality labels for coastal areas. (to be confirmed)

The same RAL code can come in matt, satin, gloss or textured, and the finish changes how the colour looks in the light. (to be confirmed)
