Test conducted by independent authorities concluded that:
- Embossed commercial material has a 20% higher yield strength than plain material for steel, whilst a bigger difference is expected for aluminium.
- Resistance to failure due to high impact loads, falling objects or high-speed winds is significantly higher for embossed sheeting than that for plain sheeting.
These advantages benefit the user by offering a more rigid sheeting profile, with improved traffic-ability during and after installation.
