Color options for other materials
Expression Holds also manufactures volumes in wood and fiberglass. Color variations may occur between different materials, and an exact match may not be possible.
However, we strive to come as close as possible.
Wood volumes
- You can order them in any color listed in the price list.
- They can also be produced without color, simply in "wood color" with a beautiful texture.
Fiberglass macros
- You can order them in any Composite-X or Aragon colors
- The color match will be close but not exact.
Using climbing holds outdoors
Expression Holds climbing holds can be used both indoors and outdoors. However, when using holds outdoors, consider the following:
- Polyester (PE) tends to withstand weather conditions better.
- Dark colors are preferable. Light colors may yellow over time.
- UV rays can cause premature aging of the color and appearance of the holds.
Expression Holds cannot be held responsible for accelerated aging of the holds. If you are building an outdoor wall, we strongly recommend sheltering it to extend the lifespan of your climbing wall.
