Color Retention Certification Extends Original Design Vision
 
 

Ah, glorious color. It's one of the most versatile and powerful tools a designer can wield. Whether colors complement or contrast, shout or whisper, designers want the combinations they specify today to proclaim that same vision years later. And vinyl siding certified for color retention delivers on that demand.

In the hands of skilled designers, color makes the ultimate visual statement to the world. From soothing neutral tones for understated elegance to deep, rich shades that convey luxury to bright, bold hues that command attention, color has the

 
 

ability to affect mood, emotion and even behavior.

Vinyl siding certified for color retention helps keep the original visual impact, year after year. Through the VSI Vinyl Siding Product Certification Program, almost 400 colors have been certified by an independent quality control agency to meet or exceed the color retention requirements of ASTM D6864 or D7251. Beyond meeting the performance requirements of ASTM D3679 (the long-standing accepted industry standard for quality vinyl siding), VSI's color retention certification requires an outdoor weathering study for each color being considered. Each certified color must demonstrate the ability to resist major changes over time in a variety of climates.

So when today's designers portray their vision with vinyl siding, certified for color retention, they can rest assured. Their colorful expressions will retain their beauty for years to come, all without painting or worry about chipping or peeling.
