Important Information
The Matt White printable finish is on one side of the panel only. Confirm the correct face before printing or fabrication.
Keep the protective film in place during transportation, cutting and installation. Remove it only when the project is complete.
Actual outdoor lifespan will vary depending on exposure, location, fabrication, installation and maintenance. Always confirm suitability for the intended application.
