Aluminum cladding and colour choices

Aluminum extrusions:
durability and easy maintenance

  • Combine the solidity of exterior cladding to the nobility of wood on the inside
  • The thickness of our extrusions is considerably superior to the sheeted aluminum offered on the market
  • Easy maintenance and corrosion resistant
  • Recyclable: an asset for the environment
Extrusions(2)-Aluminium

Unlimited choice of colours

Our extrusions are painted with 3 coats of top quality acrylic polyurethane paint. They are then oven baked to ensure a perfect finish quality that is more resistant.

Standard colours

Optional colours

Here is a small sample of optional colours:

Our colorists can also develop for you the colour of your choice from the name and the colour code of a known paint manufacturer or from a colour sample. This gives you the freedom to give free rein to your imagination.

Take note that the colours above may vary slightly from a display device to another. Consult one of our distributors to have a more accurate sampling of our colours.

Stain

Finish equal to high end furniture

Enhances and protects the wood’s beauty

Wood is a natural, warm and versatile material. Careful protection by a quality stain enhances its resistance and durability.

Unequaled protection against bad weather and UV rays

Our stain acts like a shield. The stain’s natural oils and resins seep into the wood’s cellular structure to form a durable protective barrier.

Water-based stain: one more step for protecting the environment

With the introduction of water-based stain products, Martin is a forerunner that constantly continues its efforts to support sustainable development.

30 EXCEPTIONAL COLOURS

A touch of unequaled refinement

Our colour chart offers 30 lovely colours that enhance the wood’s natural richness. Factory applied, our stain is protected by two coats of varnish giving it a satin sheen.

Energetic and structural performance

Energy Star® and NAFS standards

When evaluating energy performance ratings for your doors and windows, in addition to adhering to Energy Star®’s standards, it is important to refer to the harmonized standard set by the North American Fenestration Standard (NAFS). The NAFS specification is more commonly known under the name of “structural performance tests.”

As well as evaluating air and water tightness, the NAFS standard evaluates a door or window’s resistance to natural elements such as strong winds.

In Canada, the standard’s minimum requirements are determined according to your region and its weather conditions.

Prior to purchase, it is important to confirm the minimum required Performance Grade (PG) for your region and the surroundings of your home (location, product height, type of land, etc.).

Easily get your minimum PG with the Fenestration Canada’s performance calculator.
