The mission we were set was to bring a solution to market that extended the life and performance of the building envelope. XP40® was developed from the ground up with every additional layer rigorously tested to ensure optimum unrivalled performance. Everything from the material substrate, to the configuration of the primer coat, right through to the external finish that is uniquely embossed with the Steon® emblem has allowed for the evolution of organically coated steel in way that has not been seen in a generation.
Mission XP40® brings a newlevel of performance that not only extends the life of your investment but reduces your carbon footprint at the same time. Tomorrow’s external finish for today.
Granite® HDX by Arcelor Mittal is a high performing pre-painted external finish ideally suited for buildings requiring high levels of corrosion resistance and colour stability.
