New SE620 Mesh Lapping

Our SE620 mesh has been tested to reduce lapping and gain more coverage.

Testing on our SE620 mesh has been completed as an alternate solution to meet building code requirements, aimed at reducing lap lengths and increasing coverage.

  • The smaller sheet (SE620-500SMALL) remains the same size but now covers 7.92m2.
  • We are also introducing a larger sheet (SE620-500LGE) covering 12.76m2.
