Verified by manufacturer 1 month ago
Modular rooflight.
Application
For commercial and public buildings. Suitable for a wide variety of circulation spaces, gallery spaces and small internal courts where people meet or pass in transit.
Description
A roof light system for commercial and public buildings. The system consists of prefabricated modular skylights, including profiles, panes, flashings, control systems for natural and smoke ventilation and roller blinds.
Features and benefits:
- Ridgelight at 5° pitch generates the illusion of a small glass roof with discreet transverse horizontal supporting beams.
- Framing material ensures very low U-value.
- Complete daylight and ventilation control.
- Superior environmental profile compared to aluminium rooflights.
- Slim profiles and flush exterior surface provide an elegant appearance.
- Integrated chain actuator creates an identical look for fixed and venting modules.
- Internal blinds complete the interior with a 'free-floating' design.
- The roof lights are mounted on a rail system that guarantees fast and secure installation.
