Red brick conduit / cable

[Zdb]

Just wondering if anyone makes a red brick colour conduit?

I want the cable/system to be as discreet as possible as it has to go around the side of the house.

Red zinc oxide spray might look ok as its matte

Or FP200? Not sure about it’s suitability for the great outdoors though

 

[Rpa07]

It won’t be the only FP200 run outdoors - would be good to see a longitudinal study on its abilities against weather and UV.

 

[MFS Electrical]

I’d imagine the colour may fade to quite near the colour of the bricks but I’m not sure the insulation would stand up to the UV and the cold it may become very brittle I have seen FP outside on a number of occasions but does anyone have any solid data that it’s suitable for outdoor use?
Edit: just answered my own question red FP isn’t suitable for outdoors white or black is recommended that’s Prysmian anyway

I’ve run some outside lighting on the sheltered side of a couple of houses in the past, knowing about the white. Wasn’t aware black was available.
I always keep a reel of white for that reason, it’s always nice to do a neat install using FP.
