Natural light is important for every being on earth. May it
be animals, trees, or humans, we all need adequate amount of light for our body
to function effectively. Put your plants in a dark space for a few days, devoid
of sunlight, and see how they droop, or even die. Similarly, put yourself into
the dark for a few days and see how your body reacts to it. Thus, it clearly
proves that we all need sunlight to live. But again, focus on the word
“adequate” that we have mentioned above. Just as much as no sunlight can harm
us, over exposure to sunlight can also cause harm. Over exposure of the plants
to sun can cause leaves to burn, while overexposure of humans to the sun can
cause skin burn, skin cancer, sunstroke, and many other problems. Thus, we need
just enough amount of sunlight. And, while constructing transparent roofs or
buildings, this is just what we need to remember.
Whether it is a skylight, an entire roof, or a complete
greenhouse, we need good amount of sunlight to enter, but also keep away excess
amount of sunrays. So, how do we do that? The simplest solution to this is polycarbonate.
Tuflite Polymers is a manufacturer of such polycarbonateroofing sheets, who has pioneered the innovative concept of daylighting
arhictecture. These sheets are available in both transparent and
semi-transparent types in various kinds of textures and colours. While
semi-transparent sheets definitely block a considerable amount of light from
coming indoors, the completely transparent sheets also bring in only the good amount
of sunlight. “How?”, you may exclaim! Polycarbonates are sheets that come with
a special UV coating on one side, which block the harmful ultraviolet rays of
the sun from entering the structure. Thus, while it lets in maximum sunlight,
it keeps away the harmful UV radiations; thus bringing in only healthy sunlight
within the structure. This unique property has made polycarbonate the most
popular material used to build greenhouses. Just like polycarbonate greenhouses
are effective for plants; similarly, natural light entering a workplace also
nurtures a more productive environment for the occupants. You can install an
entire polycarbonate roof, or a polycarbonate skylight in the middle of your
roof, to bring good amount of light inside. This will not only make your space
feel bright and fresh, but will also help in reducing your electricity bills!
Another amazing quality that polycarbonate roofing sheets possess is that of insulation. When
extreme weather conditions are observed, and moisture penetrates the exterior
of the building, it results in loss of insulation, and a loss of energy
efficiency. Thus, it is important that all of this is managed and maintained
well. And, this can be done easily by installing Tuflite Polymers roofing
systems. The polycarbonates have a unique structure that helps in delivering
more efficient thermal insulation. Whether it is heavy rains, hail and winds,
or snowstorms, polycarbonate offers high resistance to impact that helps the
structure prevail against even the harshest of weather conditions.
So, whenever you are planning your next
transparent/semi-transparent structure, don’t forget its polycarbonate roofing sheets from Tuflite Polymers that you are
supposed to use. Just let them know your application and requirements, and they
will suggest you the best choice from their range of solid sheets, textured
sheets, multiwall sheets, corrugated sheets, and other architectural systems.
