• The layer of high strength aluminium sheet used in Durali is 0.5mm (+/- 0.02mm) and holds the highest grade of salt spray corrosion resistance - Aluminium Classification A5005 (Most commonly used in ACM in NZ is A3003 which is a lower grade for exterior and A1001 that can be used for signage). 
• The product is then coated with a 3-step process of the best available PVDF paint resins supplied by PPG.  Step 1: Primer, 2: PVDF Paint, and 3: PVDF varnish.
