Metalcolour Laminated is a material that blends seamlessly into a variety of modern environments and transport
facilities. Imagine a material that is as easy to work with as regular sheet steel. The only difference is that it does not
require any painting or varnishing. Metalcolour produces the widest range of lm-laminated sheet steel available on
the market. All you need to do is pick your favourite colour.
We make it possible for you to season the design.
