Product Bulletin: New Architectural Panels Available

Introducing the Urban Series — a line of architectural panels designed to bring elevated aesthetics and proven performance — now available for your projects. Building on the success of the Flat SL Panel, the Urban Series is now comprised of two new exposed fastener options: Metro and Skyline. Both offer 36″ coverage with uniformly spaced ribs at 7.2″ on center and are suitable for exterior wall, interior liner, and soffit applications, with side laps positioned in the low cell. While the two panels share the same core specifications, each features a distinct rib profile, allowing the flexibility to match the right aesthetic to each project.

Metro is a high-strength panel with a traditional, bold ribbed profile that delivers a classic look. Evenly spaced ribs run uniformly across the panel face, creating a balanced, timeless appearance that adapts to a wide range of applications. Available in standard lengths from 5′ to 38′, with a 1-1/2″ depth and smooth surface finish, Metro features exceptional negative wind load properties and all-weather installation capability — making it an excellent choice for both new construction and retrofit projects.

Skyline offers a more modern, angular rib profile for projects where contemporary aesthetic is the priority. Tighter recessed ribs paired with a wider flat profile create bold contrast and pronounced shadow lines, giving the panel a sleek look suited to modern buildings. Equally sturdy and performance-driven, Skyline is available in the same lengths, depth, and substrate options as Metro, with the same all-weather installation capability and exceptional negative wind load properties.

Critical Dates: These panels will be available in eQuote on September 10, 2026. For more information, contact your local Sales Representative.
