ETFE is a hard-wearing material with strong resistance to heat, corrosion and environmental exposure. It is also used in demanding architectural applications, including the Eden Project in Cornwall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lightly textured surface reduces reflection and helps the panel absorb light arriving from different angles. This is particularly useful during cloudy weather and in the morning, evening or winter, when sunlight may not fall directly onto the panel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe black backing provides a discreet appearance on dark-coloured vehicles, roofs and mounting surfaces. The panel is not described as ultra jet-black, and its precise hue may vary slightly between production batches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size: 22px; text-align: center; margin-top: 30px;\"\u003eInstallation and Connectivity\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe panel can be bonded to a suitable surface or mechanically secured using bolts or screws, subject to the installation instructions and the requirements of the mounting surface. Its semi-flexible construction makes it suitable for gently curved applications where a rigid framed panel may be impractical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo 1m lengths of 4mm² solar cable are factory-fitted to carry the panel’s output with minimal power loss. Waterproof MC4 connectors allow connection to compatible extension cables, charge controllers and other solar-system components. Several panels may also be connected together where the receiving equipment, cabling and protection devices are suitably rated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size: 22px; text-align: center; margin-top: 30px;\"\u003eDelivery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003eShipping is available to the UK, Ireland, Africa, the Caribbean and worldwide.
