Multiwall rooflight LEXAN Thermoroof — 20 mm, 45 mm profile rib

Rooflights can bring daylight into a hall, workshop or warehouse even where wall windows are insufficient. In a sandwich panel roof, they must match the specific profile and roofing arrangement. At SteelProfil, we help select a daylighting solution that works with the building envelope and suits the way the room beneath the roof is used.

Properly positioned rooflights can improve daylight in the central part of a building, away from the façades. This is useful at workstations, circulation routes and storage areas. Depending on the weather and work requirements, daylighting may reduce the need to switch on electric lighting during part of the day. Rooflight area should therefore be considered alongside the functional layout of the entire interior. In a larger warehouse, daylight strips can follow the rack arrangement so that light reaches the most frequently used aisles.

• Light entering through the roof helps illuminate areas away from façade windows.
• Daylight strips can be positioned to suit workstations and circulation routes in the hall.
• A suitably selected daylighting element connects interior comfort with the geometry of the sandwich panel roof.

For polycarbonate solutions, light transmission, thermal insulation and element construction are important. These characteristics determine suitability for a particular room. Thermal requirements in a heated workshop differ from those in a basic unheated warehouse. We help compare the appropriate rooflight variant and match it to the chosen envelope system, rather than selecting material solely by colour or area.

The element’s profile and length must work with the roof panel, support spacing and connection details. Suitable flashings, seals and fixings form part of the complete solution. Planning these interfaces when ordering the roofing helps maintain a clear roof layout. Daylighting must also suit the room’s thermal conditions so that the amount of light meets user needs and the design brief.

At SteelProfil, you can consider rooflights together with roof panels and accessories. Our building envelope range includes first- and second-grade materials, with selected batches available from stock. The rooflight variant and delivery time depend on the specific order and compatibility with the roof. This approach helps assemble compatible parts and prepare a quote covering both the main roofing and its intended daylighting elements.

Competitive prices and frequent promotions make it easier to plan the complete purchase. Provide the panel profile, roof dimensions and intended interior use. We can then help compare solutions and include the necessary accessories. The proposed daylighting will relate to the actual roof and working layout, allowing you to allocate the budget to practical improvements in how the rooms function.
