Material Composition | Commercial buildings, Hotels | - Industry Standard: Galvanized Steel (ASTM A653) - Our Base: PVC (ISO 1169) - Our Advanced: PVC-ASA Composite (ASTM D781) | ▲ Base: 40% lighter than steel (reduces structural load) ▲ Advanced: Enhanced UV/chemical resistance | Steel: Prone to corrosion (requires frequent maintenance) PVC: Less rigid than steel |
Weight (GSM) | Lightweight structures, Retrofit projects | - Industry Standard: 350 GSM (Metal) - Our Base: 285 GSM (ISO 3801) - Our Advanced: 250 GSM (ISO 3801) | ▲ Advanced: 28% lighter than Base (easier installation) Reduces shipping costs | Lower weight may require reinforcement in high-wind zones |
Noise Reduction (dBA) | Urban areas, Hotels, Residential zones | - Industry Standard: 35 dBA (Metal) - Our Base: 30 dBA (ASTM E90) - Our Advanced: 25 dBA (ASTM E90) | ▲ Advanced: Quieter than refrigerator hum (ideal for open-plan offices) Blocks street noise | No soundproofing for extreme industrial environments |
UV Resistance (Years) | Tropical climates, Sun-exposed roofs | - Industry Standard: 10 years (Metal) - Our Base: 15 years (ASTM G154) - Our Advanced: 25 years (ASTM G154) | ▲ Advanced: 66% longer lifespan than Industry Standard Retains color integrity | Requires annual inspections for micro-cracks in extreme UV zones |
Installation Ease | DIY projects, Time-sensitive installs | - Industry Standard: 4 hrs/panel (Screws + sealants) - Our Base: 2.5 hrs/panel (Adhesive) - Our Advanced: 1.5 hrs/panel (Snap-fit) | ▲ Advanced: 60% faster installation (snap-fit design) Reduces labor costs | Snap-fit may not suit uneven roof surfaces |
Customization Options | Architectural projects, Branding needs | - Industry Standard: 3 colors (Metal) - Our Base: 5 colors + 2 patterns (ISO 3801) - Our Advanced: 10 colors + 5 patterns | ▲ Advanced: Matches corporate branding (e.g., hotel logos) Dynamic visual appeal | Custom colors add 15% to lead time |
