The Sophistication of Copper Penny
Copper has been used for years by architects and designers to achieve distinguishable features on structures. ASC Building Products’ Copper Penny color gives you the sophisticated look of copper with all the benefits of metal.
Its pearlescent color gives Copper Penny panels a sheen, replicating the look of natural copper. This aesthetic pairs nicely with wood and traditional building materials, offering homeowners a unique look. Copper Penny comes in our Dura Tech™ xl premium paint system in 4 different panel types, giving you endless design possibilities, all offering long lasting protection and beauty for any application.
Copper Penny is available in:
- 16″ Skyline Roofing® – 26 Gauge
- 36″ Nor-Clad® – 29 Gauge
- 36″ Strata Rib® – 29 Gauge
- 36″ Delta Rib™ III – 29 Gauge
Due to the nature of the finish, the panels are directional in nature and batch sensitive. What does this mean? In a nutshell it means you will need to order all your materials in a single order to make sure the finishes are completely identical and must be certain to install them uniformly in one direction. The textbook answer is:
“Directional Paint System – Due to the unique shape of the pigments in the paint, common to metallic paints, a directional paint system catches light in a specific way that can vary between batches and orientation. This guidance is given for certain colors to avoid mixing orientation or batches to provide a clean uniform look once installed on a metal roof or wall.”
Batch sensitivity is not a deterrent, but simply something to keep in mind as you plan so you can maximize on your investment! Now let’s look at some real-life projects featuring Copper Penny.
Examples – 5 real world projects featuring our Copper Penny color!
1) Fun in the Sun
This home took advantage of the full sun they experience and installed solar panels over their metal roofing. Most solar panels last 25 to 30 years while most asphalt shingles need to be replaced after 20 years. Metal panels can offer you over 50 years of protection, so you save money in the long run by not having to replace your roof and remove and re-install panels.
Solar panels are also generally more secure on metal than asphalt and have a cleaner, more sophisticated look in the end.
