The PVF Film That Takes Metal Roofing to the Beach

By DuPont™ Tedlar®. 

DuPont™ Tedlar® PVF laminated metal roofing panels is still making waves since its debut in new colors at 2021’s IRE. 

DuPont™ Tedlar® PVF laminated metal roofing panels made their debut last August, but that isn’t keeping homeowners and contractors from thinking about the beach this summer. Tedlar® film for metal provides the technology to make having the dream material for your beach house a reality.  

Tedlar® is notorious for its resistance to harsh chemicals and corrosion, allowing projects with metal to be built within 1,500 ft of the ocean and still have resistance to seawater and salt spray. 

In addition to corrosion resistance these panels deliver: 

• UV & weather stability 

• Stain/dirt resistance 

• Temperature stability 

• Color stability 

• Unmatched pliability 

• Low toxicity & volatiles 

• Low gas/ vapor permeability  

These features round out an overall robust product for commercial and residential applications alike. You don’t have to live on the coast to enjoy the weather resistance and durability of this metal panel, all buildings can benefit from the superior external protection this product provides.
