Reflections™ laminates and Brushalume are available in limited panel widths.MetalWorks steel and aluminum panels are made at different manufacturing facilities that use different paint systems. Because of this, similar colors (i.e., White and Whitelume) are not exact color matches. Please consider this when designing adjacent spaces with multiple MetalWorks products.
