What materials are in an Outdoor Elements louvered roof?

Materials

Outdoor Elements roofs are built from extruded aluminum materials vs. the rolled materials other manufacturers use.

Extruded materials are formed from a large piece of aluminum which is melted to 900 degrees and then run through a press and die in the shape desired. It's then stretched, cooled, and treated and is typically about 8" thick. Extruded components are used in situations where precision is vital, such as NASA.

Rolled materials are aluminum that is run through a series of rollers that bend it into a shape. Those shapes are a little less defined and typical of what you would find in low end aluminum siding.

Outdoor Elements louvered roof systems are engineered with the highest quality materials, including high-grade extruded aluminum components and stainless steel fasteners. The aluminum components are powder coated with a superior (Super Durable) exterior grade coating making them highly resistant to corrosion and deterioration.

Durable Powder Coating

Unlike other systems that are painted, Outdoor Elements systems are filled and protected by utilizing powder coating. In our system, all aluminum  components are built with an electronics process that applies a powder coating material to fill the entire surface and then baked at 400 degrees. This creates a much higher level of quality and endurance.
