EUROGLAZE CONFIRMS ONGOING DOMINANCE OF ANTHRACITE GREY

27^th May 2026

Euroglaze proudly claims to offer the widest range of Rehau PVC-U products of any UK trade fabricator – from Total 70 casements and Heritage sliders to Rauferno fire rated windows, Rio flush sashes and Slinova patios.

It is perfectly placed then to be able to provide a snapshot of the current colour trends shaping the market in PVC-U and in Rehau windows and doors in particular.

Alfie Booker, Euroglaze’s data technician apprentice completed an analysis of the company’s sales of coloured frames as part of his ongoing training, and his findings make interesting reading for anyone who thinks that anthracite grey has had its day.

Unsurprisingly, white remains the dominant choice amongst Euroglaze’s trade customers, but anthracite grey is still by far the next most popular option. Over the past year, anthracite grey has outsold pearl grey, elephant grey and slate grey by almost three to one, with pearl grey the most popular of the three alternatives.

The biggest growth in sales at Euroglaze has actually been in black and midnight black frames for use in both traditional and contemporary settings, while rosewood is still an enduringly popular choice for casements.

Nicky Park, Euroglaze’s Senior Business Development Associate, commented: “On casement windows in particular, anthracite grey clearly isn’t going anywhere yet. On our flush sashes though, it’s a slightly different picture with pearl, elephant and slate grey rapidly gaining ground alongside the two black finishes.

“What elevates this service from Euroglaze is our fast turnaround and attention to detail. All the gaskets and even the hidden parts of the frame are all masked off before they are sprayed, so there is never any overspray visible, and all of the frame references remain legible. We also label products on the packaging so that customers don’t need to unwrap them until they are ready to be fitted.”
