Why choose a custom colour radiator?
Choosing a custom colour radiator allows you to tailor your space exactly to your taste and vision. Standard white or grey radiators may blend in, but opting for a bespoke colour lets you create a statement that matches your decor. Imagine a vibrant mustard radiator in an industrial loft, a deep navy complementing a classic study, or a soft pastel shade elevating a modern nursery. You can view some more custom colour radiator inspiration here.
Custom colour radiators are perfect for those who value individuality and want their home to reflect their unique style. Whether you’re matching your radiator to specific colour schemes or simply seeking to personalise your space with a bold accent, the choice of colour provides endless possibilities for design creativity.
How to choose a custom colour radiator
Before selecting your custom colour, ensure the radiator meets your practical needs for the room. Choose a radiator that fits the available space and provides adequate heating output. This may mean opting for a vertical design if wall space is limited or a horizontal one for a more traditional look. Use our handy Heating Calculator to input your room dimensions and determine the BTU output required for efficient heating.
Once the practical aspects are sorted, you can then focus on customisation. Trade Radiators offers a range of colours in RAL and British Standard paints, as well as renowned finishes like Farrow & Ball or Little Greene. You can even choose between matt, gloss, or textured finishes to complete your bespoke look. You can either enter your custom colour details at the time you make your purchase on our website, or you can speak to one of our team who will be happy to help you further.
