I am seeking to identify/establish SR value for aluminum canopies. Canopy manfacturer does not have a clue what I am looking for. Is there an industry standard SR value for unpainted aluminum canopies?

Try looking here https://coolroofs.org/product-rating/overview
Or find a manufacturer that has the information. There are a couple out there - search for "aluminum SRI".
Good luck!

Thank You! I found a site from a metal building supplier located right in my backyard that addresses SR/SRI for aluminum roofing. I thought I'd pass it along.
