  • The RAL values stated are merely approximate values (~), some of which may differ vastly from the original PREFA color and, under certain circumstances, may not reflect the subjective perception of the color.
  • Above all for color quality P.10, it is almost impossible to define values due to the surface structure. In addition, the PREFA Siding colours P.10 stone grey, P.10 sand brown, P.10 Prefa bronze, P.10 patina green, natural oak, patina grey, walnut and grey oak are based on natural colours made up of several different shades.

  • Metallic colors may vary in shade.
  • To identify exact colors for complementary components please consult original samples.
