Substrate & Architectural / Market Nº 03

Every colour a homeowner asks for, without a stocked inventory.

Composite, GRP, steel-faced and uPVC door programmes finished to order — colour matched, weather-proven and repeatable batch after batch.

Substrates We Finish

  • Composite / GRP door skins
  • Steel-faced doors
  • uPVC slabs and frames
  • Timber and engineered cores
  • Aluminium sub-frames

The Opportunity

What the finish lets you sell.

01 / Revenue

Sell colour, not stock

Colour-on-demand replaces pallets of pre-finished slabs. You quote any RAL, BS or NCS reference without carrying the inventory risk that normally kills a bespoke door programme.

02 / Revenue

A premium tier you already have the line for

Metallic, textured and heritage finishes turn a standard door into an upsell. The margin sits in the finish, not the slab, and it runs on the equipment you already own.

03 / Revenue

Shorter lead times than a supplied finish

Finishing in-house removes a supplier from the critical path. Colour changes late in the order stop being a re-order and start being a spray booth decision.

Performance

What it has to survive.

  • UV and weathering stability for south-facing entrances
  • Adhesion to low-energy plastics without flame or corona pre-treatment on most substrates
  • Impact and scuff resistance through handling, glazing and installation
  • Colour consistency across slab, frame and trim in the same order

In Production

How it runs on your line.

Runs hand-held in a booth for bespoke work, or integrated into an automated line for volume programmes. Same coatings, same pigments, same colour formulations at either scale.

Start manual and grow into automation. The coatings, pigments and colour formulations carry forward at every stage — nothing you invest in today gets replaced when volume arrives.
