Technical Specs For COLORBOND® Southerly®

Southerly® in COLORBOND® steel is engineered for strength and longevity. Key technical specifications include:

  • Base Metal Thickness (BMT): Available in 0.35mm, 0.42mm, and 0.48mm.

  • Solar Absorptance (SA): 0.40
    This means that 40% of solar radiation is absorbed by the material, making it a mid-range option in terms of heat absorption, ideal for areas where moderate heat management is needed.

  • Solar Reflectance Index (SRI): 71
    The SRI value reflects how well the material repels solar heat. A higher SRI like 71 indicates strong reflectivity, helping keep your structure cooler, reducing the reliance on cooling systems.

  • Light Reflectance Value (LRV): Approx. 52
    The LRV value suggests how much visible light is reflected. COLORBOND® Southerly®'s lighter grey hue ensures that a moderate amount of light is reflected, contributing to a brighter and more visually appealing structure.

  • Corrosion Resistance: High resistance to corrosion, ensuring the shed withstands harsh weather conditions.

  • Thermal Efficiency: Includes Thermatech® technology, which helps reflect heat and keep your shed cooler in warm climates.

  • Warranty: Backed by up to a 20-year warranty for peace of mind.

These specifications ensure that Southerly® sheds offer not only aesthetic appeal but also the durability and performance required for long-term use.
