Hitec Metal Roofing Supplies
Tested in Australian Conditions
Australia is known for harsh extremes of weather, from pelting rains to blazing sun, buffeting winds and hail. Wherever you are in Australia, you’re bound to have witnessed conditions turn ugly fast. If there’s one steel brand that Australians trust as a truly Australian steel brand, it’s Colorbond® Steel.

No matter the application or geographical location, you can be confident in the durability of Colorbond® Steel.
Easy to Maintain
COLORBOND® steel is easy to maintain. All this resilient steel requires is clean, fresh water. This enhances the product’s longevity and preserves the attractiveness of its finish. If the metal is washed by rain water, it is self-cleaning. Thus, COLORBOND® steel is an ideal product for roofs and is favoured by builders across the construction industry. Colorbond® Steel used in wall cladding or on garage doors will require some attention to ensure the integrity of the product. Installing Colorbond® Steel near coastal areas? You need to ensure you hose down the steel at least every once every six months, as salt water can lead to rust and corrosion. Similarly, be sure to remove any debris, like mulch or soil from the product.
Energy Efficiency & Environment
Thermal efficiency:It is no secret that the colour paint you apply for roofing can make a great difference to the “thermal efficiency” of your home. This measure the extent to which the internal temperature of your home stays even as a result of the insulation effects. This can make a great difference to the cost of power bills, of course. COLORBOND® steel range boast five solar reflective (light coloured) roofing colours. But COLORBOND® steel make your home energy efficient in other ways, via Thermatech® solar reflectance technology. Thermatech® technology reflects more of the sun’s heat on hot days. This means the interior of your home will not heat as much or as quickly, reducing the need for an air conditioner. Both the planet and the customer are the winner with COLORBOND® steel.
Sustainable Performance: COLORBOND® steel durability and resilience in the face of Australia’s harsh climate is renowned. This durability is automatically kinder on the environment as it consumes less energy to protect your home from the elements, over its lifetime. In addition, All COLORBOND® steel contains 100% recycled and recyclable content. Being lightweight, it is also easier to transport to the site and will require less buttressing in the roof structure. Being strong, it is a shield for you home in stormy weather.
Make Sure it’s Genuine
Fifty Years of Australian research and development has made COLORBOND® steel a true Australian original. The technologies associated with this Aussie-own are highly sought after and, unsurprisingly, often inferiorly imitated. These products simply cannot boast the resilience of COLORBOND® steel, however. Customers often complain when caught out with knock-offs. To ensure you’re buying genuine COLORBOND® steel, look for the branding on the package.
Five Layers of protection
COLORBOND® steel is tested in real Australian conditions and as passed genuine Australian standards (AS1397 and AS/NZS 2728). Australian tests are some of the most rigorous in the world, as they reflect the harsh extremes of our climate. The paint coat on the base uses BlueScope’s industry-leading metallic coating, which includes the Activate® technology, this is doubly resistant against corrosion. To enhance adhesion, a pretreatment layer is sprayed onto the steel. A primer is baked onto the surface to inhibit corrosion. The topcoat resists chipping, blistering and flaking.
Fire Protection
Australia is notorious for its bushfires. They have long been a part of the Australian way of life. Home construction has changed and adapted over time to reflect this. COLORBOND® steel has been at the forefront of this adaptation and is recognised by the CSIRO. In fact, the CSIRO recognises that a COLORBOND® steel fence offers ‘greater protection against bushfire’ when compared to alternatives, owing to its non-combustibility. This is not just academic. COLORBOND® steel has been tested in a 30-minute flame immersion test.
For more detailed information of the excellent performance of COLORBOND® steel during a bushfire, see this fact sheet.
50th Anniversary Year
It has been 50 years since COLORBOND® steel first rolled off a paint-line in 1966. Since then, much has changed, including colour range and technology in production. Representative here is the ACTIVATE® innovation, a patent of BlueScope steel. The formulation ‘adds two magnesium compounds to the traditional aluminium and zinc coating of COLORBOND® steel’. This means that the painted steel is far more likely to retain its colour and gloss over time.
It’s perhaps little wonder, then, that COLORBOND® steel is being used in major construction projects, such as commercial buildings like the Adelaide Velodrome and Melbourne’s Margaret Court Arena. But it is still affordable enough to be used all through the Aussie home, from garage doors to cubby houses and letter boxes.
Warranty
COLORBOND® steel comes back with a rock-solid BlueScope steel warranty. BlueScope, one of Australia’s largest manufacturers provide warranties (subject to application and eligibility criteria). Apply for a warrant by using the online warranty management system.
Contemporary
Classic
Matt
Ultra
A powerful, modern grey with a neutral cast, Basalt® deliberately lacks the green tones that would soften its impact when used in ultra-modern designs. Exuding the strength and solidity of the rock after which it is named, the use of Basalt® lends buildings a feeling of being anchored to the earth.
A powerful mid-tone colour, Cove artfully blends grey and yellow tones to create an effect of a warm golden glow being lit from within. Possessing sandy greyish overtones, Cove® will bestow a welcoming feeling on any building, Cove is ideal for homebuilding projects.
Dune is a warm, pale grey that invokes feelings of balance and neutrality. It is associated with the dusty earth of the Australian bushland, the soft pelt of native marsupials, and the textured landscapes of granite rock and stone.
Evening Haze strongly evokes the coastal landscape, the desert sand, the limestone dunes, the barren plains and the inland and coastal dried grasses and Spinifex.
Possessing both strength and warmth, Gully is deep in hue but also neutral making it highly relevant to residential building applications, particularly wall cladding and rainwater goods. Complex and rich yet discreet, Gully is utterly contemporary and pairs well with a range of building materials and finishes.
Inspired by the purple-grey hues of distant mountains, stormy skies and the natural beauty of our coastal regions, Ironstone has captured a new mood for COLORBOND steel colours.
Jasper‘s inspiration is in abundance in inland and coastal regions, from the barren slopes of the central ranges, the ageing bark on a large gum tree, and the dark shadows on the sand plains to the striated granite outcrops on the coast, this colour is inspiring.
Containing strong yellow tones, Mangrove is a very elemental colour and a new direction for greens within the palette. The grey base means that it is suited to these more environmentally sensitive times, allowing a building to complement the landscape around it. With strong influences from the Australian bush, Mangrove® similarly bursts with life and vibrancy.
Monument is unashamedly a city colour. It will emphasise the modernity of today’s architecture. It is a strong, confident, neutral colour adding depth and strength to the colour palette.
Shale Grey™ is evocative of Gulf coast mud plains, pale grey pebbles reflecting the sun, the ethereal grey mist rising from a surf beach, the silver grey leaves of native flora and the shimmering outcrops of rocks on the Great Dividing Range.
Surfmist embodies qualities of freshness, purity timelessness and independency. Snow, the mist from the sea and surf, pure white sand, and the billowing sails of yachts all remind us of this colour.
A rich, rusty red colour reminiscent of Australia’s famed Outback, Terrain® possesses inherent warmth that lends it instant authenticity and honesty. One of the few reds in the colour palette, its use helps root a building within its setting, also allowing for striking juxtapositions when used in partnership with contemporary building materials and lines.
A warm, earthy and natural mid grey, Wallaby® has a softness that allows it to be paired with a variety of both traditional and contemporary building materials ranging from glass and steel to timber and stone. A supremely versatile hue, Wallaby® will find firm adherents in both the commercial and contemporary homebuilding arenas.
Windspray® is mid-strength, neutral grey with a blue undertone that brings to mind a gentle breeze, soft shadows and the misty sea on a cloudy day.
Classic Cream™ lives up to its name. It is a classic, conservative, safe and neutral colour that appeals to a wide range of consumers throughout Australia.
Cottage Green is a rich, deep green that bridges the gap between heritage styles and today’s contemporary living. It is inspired by heritage buildings of the past, the lush green of the country side, and the tranquil and peaceful qualities associated with this colour.
Deep Ocean is a conservative yet appealing colour that mimics the richness and depth of the ocean, and the vast blue haze of a distant mountain range.
Manor Red is a strong colour, set deep in the Australian psyche. It evokes feelings of the vast expanses of red earth found in the Pilbara and other areas of outback Australia.
Neutral, sophisticated and strong, Night Sky® is ideal for emphasising strong lines and sharp reliefs on both contemporary and traditional homes. As a defining tone, it’s the perfect contrast to paler building materials and colours.
Pale Eucalypt® is a favoured choice for Australian homes, reflecting the colour and grandeur of the Australian gum. Its gentle, muted hue is suggestive of tranquillity and beauty, and captures the essence of Australian flora.
Woodland Grey® is inspired by the depth of cool green forest, the canopy of eucalyptus on a rugged mountain plateau, the twisted bark and deep olive green leaves of teatree along the coast, the mossy boulders and ferns found in mountain crevices.
A strong colour that is part of the increasingly popular grey trend movement in design. The added Matt finish propels Basalt into a new world where its subtle understated sleek finish can be specified for walling as well as roofing and captures a sophisticated visual identity.
The warmest colour in the new Matt range; Dune is timeless and comforting offering a familiar intimate feeling. A no fuss colour. Elegant, refined and understated solutions can be created with Dune®, particularly with the new Matt finish.
A deep charcoal grey is another ‘on trend’ colour. The new Matt finish offers a unique façade treatment that enables a building to stand alone. Matt Monument® exudes power and strength for any residential or commercial building where walls and roofing are integral features of the overall design.
A pale warm grey that is enhanced by the Matt finish. Neutrality is the hallmark or signature of this colour and the Matt finish adds greatly to its subtleness and distinctive nature. The Matt finish communicates Shale Grey™’s intensely inviting stylish character.
Matt Surfmist® delivers a subtle fresh finish to structures. The Matt finish emphasises neutrality, functionality and flexibility and does not impose itself on a buildings character. A distinctive contemporary outcome is the result.
