When it comes to daylighting buildings from above, light intensity, UV protection and flexible installation is key. Our translucent and transparent dry-glazed solutions are suitable for any type of structure, providing the opportunity to explore new possibilities for designing buildings filled with light.
Danpal polycarbonate systems are adaptable to meet building-specific performance requirements and design needs.
Our range of Danpal roofing systems brings natural light indoors or outdoors, allowing you to illuminate your walkway, balcony or awning.
Our polycarbonate panels are flexible and easy to install, making your design options virtually endless. Tested to protect against UV rays and harsh elements including rain, wind and hail, the structural integrity of the material is retained, even with slight curving.
Why Use Polycarbonate Roofing?
There are numerous reasons why polycarbonate roofing is the best choice for construction.
Lifespan
Your roof is going to be permanently exposed to the elements, so ensuring durability is an absolute must.
Fortunately, a polycarbonate roof is significantly more hard-wearing than a standard glass roof, so it will last longer. In Australia, the roof of any building will need to withstand some very high temperatures. Danpal’s polycarbonate roofing can withstand temperatures far and above the hottest temperatures found in Australia, contributing to its perseverance.
Given the more opaque nature of a translucent roof, it doesn’t need to be cleaned as often either, meaning you not only save money on maintenance costs, but cleaning as well.
Cost
Polycarbonate roofing is significantly stronger than glass, even when slightly curved. Despite this, our roofing solutions are still mostly cheaper than glass, so engaging with our practical roofing solutions can actually save money on new builds.
UV Protection
This is perhaps the biggest selling point of polycarbonate roofing solutions. While suitable for a range of applications, our roofing solutions are commonly used for outdoor areas such as entranceways & awnings, and covered out-door areas such as courtyards. While glass lets UV rays through, translucent polycarb roofing significantly reduces the UV, protecting people passing underneath from the sun’s harmful rays.
Better Insulation
Structures using glass roofing might look very impressive, but they have a fundamental problem when it comes to keeping heat out in summer, and heat in during winter. Danpal lightweight roofing systems result in very insulative construction, which contributes to the overall energy efficiency of any building. In outdoor settings, this also reduces the greenhouse-effect where heat gets trapped.
