Resilient Non-Combustible Modern Steel
Architects strike a balance between aesthetics, durability, and sustainability when designing high-performance exteriors. Kynar® PVDF finish is one of the most reliable solutions in architectural metal coatings. Known for its unmatched color retention, weather resistance, and longevity, Kynar coatings are a leading choice for modern steel façades and roofing systems.
A Kynar finish is a proven architectural coating made from polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) resin. Applied to aluminum, steel, and metal panels, this finish forms a durable protective barrier that resists fading, chalking, and corrosion, even under extreme UV exposure and environmental stress.
Modern Steel cladding is crafted from 24-gauge steel with 5 layers of protection built into every sheet. Modern Steel siding is stronger than most other siding options. Our 40-year paint finish warranty features coatings formulated with a durable modified polyester resin. This results in superior resistance to fading, fire and environmental weathering.
In today’s construction market, the demand for resilient building envelopes is higher than ever. The 5-layer Kynar finish on Modern Steel delivers both aesthetic impact and long-term performance, delivering a sound investment for architects focused on life-cycle cost efficiency, safety, sustainability, and design excellence.
Benefits of Kynar® Finishes
1. Long-Lasting Color Retention
Architectural projects rely on color consistency to maintain design intent. Kynar PVDF coatings are engineered to resist fading and gloss loss, preserving vibrant modern steel façades for decades.
2. Weather and UV Resistance
Unlike standard paints, Kynar finishes withstand prolonged sun exposure, heavy rain, and snow without chalking or surface degradation. This makes them ideal for modern steel durability in all climates.
3. Corrosion Protection in Harsh Environments
For coastal projects or urban areas with high pollution, PVDF coatings protect metals from salt, chemicals, and moisture, thereby reducing replacement costs and extending the lifespan of modern structures.
4. Sustainability and Reduced Maintenance
By minimizing repainting and maintenance needs, Kynar finishes support green building strategies. Their long service life aligns with LEED certification goals and sustainable design practices.
5. Design Versatility for Modern Architecture
Available in a broad range of woodgrain, colors, and metallic finishes, architectural PVDF coatings give architects the freedom to achieve both bold and timeless designs without sacrificing durability.
