A friend has suggested that UV light may damage rubber sheeting. (Ultra violet light is part of sunlight.) Natural rubber, I have learned, would deteriorate very rapidly in sunlight BUT THE RUBBER USED FOR SHED ROOFS IS SYNTHETIC. It’s called EPDM rubber.
EPDM stands for ethylene propylene diene monomer. It can withstand general weathering, Ozone and UV and is extremely durable. It comes with a 20 year guarantee and has a life expectation of fifty years.
