Product Information

Supasafe & DR Reinforced Profiled GRP Rooflights

Stockcode:

FILON DR (double reinforced) rooflights
FILON DR rooflights are manufactured from polyester resins and glassfibre, with an additional reinforced woven glass layer compared with conventional GRP rooflights. They have been assessed in accordance with ACR(M)001-2011 ‘Test for Fragility of roofing assemblies. Under this classification, they are rated Class B when used in a single skin application or forming part of a multi-layer assembly such as FAIRs and site assembled insulating rooflights.

FILON Supasafe (triple reinforced) rooflights
FILON Supasafe rooflights are manufactured from polyester resins and glassfibre, with two additional reinforcement layers compared with conventional GRP rooflights. They have been assessed in accordance with ACR(M)001-2005 ‘Test for Fragility of Roofing Assemblies. Under this classification, they achieve a Class B Non-Fragility rating providing comparable impact resistance and load bearing capabilities to 0.7mm steel sheet.

Excellent resistance to weathering
FILON reinforced GRP rooflights are supplied with a highly durable protective film to the weather surface. This extends sheet life and reduces yellowing. Under normal atmospheric conditions, life expectancy should be in excess of 30 years.

Accurate profile matching to steel sheet
As FILON Supasafe and DR rooflights are manufactured using a highly sophisticated and carefully developed process, the end result is a much thinner sheet compared with alternative manufacturers’ which provide similar levels of impact resistance and load bearing capabilities. This much thinner sheet enables us to manufacture rooflights and roof sheets with a very accurate profile definition enabling much more successful sealing between side and end laps.
