Technical Details & Test Data
- Weathering Resistance
Exolon® UV sheets show excellent weathering resistance, which guarantees their impact strength even after many years. Since their introduction in 1989, the sheets have been examined in an intensive test program, including a real-time outdoor exposure test in a southern European climate (Bandol). The sheets are provided with a 10-year warranty on unbreakability and on optical properties.
