BRS panel sample shown was subjected to wind load testing and wind driven rain testing.

Panels were exposed to wind speeds in excess of 150 MPH, from multiple directions, via a rotating, 360-degree test base, with wind speeds verified by highly-calibrated instruments.

Simulated wind driven rain testing was conducted for realistic performance to water infiltration.

These tests demonstrated the performance of our industry-leading seam joinery.

The panels excelled under the realistic test conditions due to BRS Superior Seam Technology™ (SST).
