Learn About Steelscape, A US Manufacturer of Painted Metal

Steelscape is the leading west-coast manufacturer of coated and painted metal for construction products. Each year we produce more than 400 million pounds of painted steel which is transformed into a wide range of finished products including, metal roofing and siding, decking, and framing. Our capabilities encompass the entire coating process, from metallic coating (corrosion protection) to painting, ensuring quality, consistency, and on-time delivery for customers. Our innovative colors and designs continue to expand the application of metal in modern exterior design.

We have a highly experienced team with more than 4500 years of collective experience. Today we operate out of two advanced facilities in Washington and California. Our Rancho Cucamonga, California facility was commissioned in 1968 and we expanded to our Kalama Washington plant in 1997.
