Base Metal Thickness (BMT): Available in 0.35mm, 0.42mm, and 0.48mm.
Solar Absorptance (SA): 0.43
Paperbark® has a relatively low solar absorptance, meaning it absorbs less heat from the sun, making it a suitable option for reducing internal temperatures, especially in warmer climates.

This higher SRI value indicates that Paperbark® effectively reflects solar energy, contributing to energy efficiency by reducing the need for cooling.

With a mid-range LRV, Paperbark® reflects a good amount of visible light, providing a soft and inviting appearance while maintaining its durability and function.
Corrosion Resistance: Engineered for maximum durability in both coastal and inland locations.
Thermal Efficiency: Features Thermatech® technology, which reflects heat and helps keep your shed cooler in the summer months.
