Practical Notes

GSM in roofing refers to the coating weight applied to the sheet surface.

It is an important indicator because coating thickness plays a major role in corrosion resistance and service life.

A sheet with higher GSM usually has stronger protective coverage against environmental exposure.

This makes GSM a practical factor to review while comparing roofing materials.

In simple terms, higher GSM generally means better durability.
