Product description
The panels are formed from 0.42-mm-thick aluminum zinc alloy steel sheet metal. The underside of the panels is finished with a corrosion- resistant coating. The upper surface of the panels is finished with an acrylic resin base coat onto which crushed natural stone chips are spread and then covered with an acrylic overglaze (see Figure 1). The panels are overlapped at both horizontal and vertical joints when installed.
