Description
ALSYNITEULTRA-COOL is a premium quality Fibre
Reinforced Polyester (FRP) sheet with all the qualities of ALSYNITE ULTRA but
with the added advantages of controlled solar heat transmission. It is
identified by its ultra white finish.
ALSYNITEULTRA-COOL provides an economical means of transmitting diffused natural light to
the building interior, whilst at the same time reflecting unnecessary solar
heat, resulting in substantial cost savings in lighting and cooling expenses.
Key Features
· Excellent long term weathering characteristics
· Superior 25 Year warranty *conditions apply
· Non delaminating surface technology
· Resistant to degradation and embrittlement
· Outstanding surface erosion resistance
· Resistant to commonplace chemicals
· Superior long term diffused light properties
· Superior long term reduction of solar heat
· Provides substantial savings in energy costs
Typical Applications
· Industrial and commercial skylights
· Building skylight sidings
· Nursery & retail areas
· Sports venues and shopping centre skylights
· Light diffusers
Any building or structure requiring diffused
light with minimum heat transmission
