Sto Color System

Because architectural color can increase property value from 25% to 40% [source: ReMax Commercial], optimize your opportunities with the StoColor System. Color is structural, regional, emotional, cultural, dimensional, historical, integral, visual and functional.
Architectural color improves life cycle value, increases curb appeal, heightens owner satisfaction and enhances visibility and recognition. Ultimately, color is an essential element in our environment.

Sto recognizes this need for color and offers you this outstanding collection.

Each color is designated by a number and name.
In addition, each color has a lightness value represented by this symbol: 00
The lightness value is the amount of light reflected from a surface, measured in %: 100% = White 0% = Black

Disclaimer:
The colors presented on this chart are representations. Actual color of manufactured product may vary slightly from the chart. Color perception is affected by degree of gloss, texture, and lighting conditions. For best results, always request a product sample, select color under nature lighting conditions and construct full scale job site mock ups for final color approval.

Minor shade variations may occur from batch to batch (refer to batch no. on pail). Avoid installing separate batches side-by-side and avoid application in direct sunlight. Avoid installing new finish adjacent to weathered or aged finish. Sto Corp. will not be responsible for shade or color variation caused by application or substrate deficiencies, or fading resulting from natural causes such as weather.
