Polyester Paint
Polyester paint is a very useful for agricultural uses as it has been stated as an acceptable material by a number of agriculture authorities. Polyester paint is also a cheaper alternative for roofing than other materials available. Polyester is coated upon zinc-coated steel in accordance to BS EN 10147. This type of roofing has a medium lifetime and should be recoated every ten to fifteen years (or less if there is pollution).
When handling polyester painted sheets care must be taken as the polyester coating can easily be scratched. Also sheets should not be slid against each other as this can also cause wear in the surface coating.
Polyester paint coated sheeting is a very high quality galvanised steel sheet with a primer paint finished with a final layer of polyester paint.
