Sheerline reveals colour trends from 2024

As a fully vertically integrated UK manufacturer, Sheerline paints all its own profiles in-house. This is designed to ensure an agile and responsive service for customers while also enabling the company to track every colour it sprays.

Sheerline’s 2024 statistics reveal that anthracite grey remained the most popular colour overall. However, it wasn’t as popular as in 2023, as it accounted for 33% of orders last year compared to 38% the year before.

According to Sheerline, this would suggest homeowners are slowly moving away from anthracite as their default choice. This thinking is supported by Sheerline’s figures, which reveal the company sprayed a total of 54 different greys, including bespoke options such as pebble and slate grey.

Eddy Webb, Sheerline’s production director, commented: “What stands out is the number of different colours we sprayed last year. The figure has risen from 45 in 2023, to 115 colours in 2024, which tells us consumers are increasingly choosing a unique look instead of simply copying what everyone else has.”

While the number of homeowners picking bespoke colours has drastically risen in the past year, neutrals from Sheerline’s traditional and premium ranges have also performed well. This includes pure white, hipca white gloss, cream, agate grey and chocolate brown.

Jet black has been consistently popular over the past few years, but Sheerline adds that it’s expected to become even more popular this year thanks to the rise in demand for heritage style products.
