Our material can achieve a wide range of colours and finishes across all substrates, allowing different panel materials to be specified interchangeably within a single project to meet exact aesthetic and performance criteria.
Customisable across off-form smooth, polished, acid-washed, exposed aggregate, metallics, and high-performance paint coats.
Formulated to match standard color matching systems, including RAL, Pantone, and custom architectural palette nominations.
Engineered to withstand high UV exposure and environmental weathering with a 25-year finish warranty.
Delivered with clear wash protocols and dedicated project repair kits containing dry matrix mix for straightforward field touch-ups.
ShapeShift Technologies provides a versatile suite of finishing systems designed to meet rigorous architectural specifications. Every coating and finish option listed below is engineered for interchangeable application across all ShapeShift material substrates—including RT/GFRP, RC/GFRC, and RG/GFRG—ensuring unified visual consistency across mixed-material building envelopes.
Factory-applied undercoat sealer engineered to protect the substrate during transport and installation while providing an ideal bonding surface for field-applied topcoats. This option offers maximum flexibility for projects requiring on-site colour matching, intricate localized painting, or final site-applied architectural finishes.
A high-performance exterior coating system utilizing Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) fluoropolymer resin. Engineered specifically for demanding architectural applications, PVDF finishes deliver exceptional long-term chalk resistance, gloss retention, and color stability under extreme UV exposure, harsh weather conditions, and atmospheric pollution.Â
An advanced surface treatment that replicates the authentic appearance, depth, and tactile quality of real metals—such as bronze, copper, brass, zinc, or oxidized steel—without the weight, structural sub-framing demands, or corrosion vulnerabilities of solid sheet metal. Achieve a premium metallic aesthetic with enhanced weatherability.
Specialized surface treatments to emulate the natural depth, grain, and tactile character of raw concrete or precast stone. Whether achieved through surface texturing, specialized mineral coatings, or acid-wash and polished techniques, this finish provides an authentic masonry aesthetic on lightweight, high-strength structural panels.
Specialist surface treatments that replicate the visual characteristics of aged steel while eliminating runoff staining and corrosion risks.
Textures and architectural coatings designed to replicate natural timber grain patterns, providing a timber aesthetic with minimal ongoing maintenance.
Nominate the required RAL or preferred colour code for the top coat to match the architectural intent.
Nominate the required gloss level to control surface reflectivity and visual depth: 10% (matte), 50% (semi-gloss), or 80% (high gloss).
Confirm the surface texture requirements based on design intent, including options that replicate various natural architectural materials.
Specify functional clear coats based on environmental exposure and public interface, such as anti-graffiti topcoats.
Nominate the surface wash level based on design context: Low wash (subtle texture), medium wash (moderate texture), or heavy wash (pronounced texture)
Select the base tone from the standard oxide pigment palette. Pigments are mixed directly into the reinforced concrete matrix for consistent through-colour.
If an exposed aggregate finish is required, select the aggregate type (typically 0.5 mm up to 6 mm) to control surface texture depth and visual character.
Specify functional clear coats based on environmental exposure and public interface, such as water resistant topcoats.
