Hello everybody, I work for a company specialised in photovoltaic solar energy in the french antilles. We would like to install Unisolar photovoltaic modules on metal roofings in this area, but find it dificult to find an enterprise that will suply the metal roofing with the characterisitics that we need. The approved substrates for the Unisolar modules that we want to install(peel and stick) are the following: 1. Galvalume® Steel with Kynar500® PVDF coating 2. Zincalume® with Kynar500® PVDF coating 3. AluZink® AZ185 Are these materials commonly used in metal roofing? or should we ask our metal roofing to be made of one of these materials specifically for us? We also need the metal roofing to have specific measures: the unisolar modules that we want to stick on the metal roof have a width of 394 mm, so we need a falt part between the ribs of 410 mm. Can you give me the contact of an enterprise that can supply us with metal roofing of these characteristics in the french antilles (Guadeloupe and Martinique)? I hope that you will excuse me for my english, and that you can understand more or less my questions! Thank you very much!

Kynar coated galvalume is very common. Most of the manufacturers of vertical panels listed on this website can supply what you need. Classic would probably be the only one that can not.
