Primalite™ Heat Reflecting Glazing

Primalite Heat Reflecting GlazeLess heat transfer, More light transmission

Unique extruded twin coating includes an exclusive filter layer that selectively reflects a large portion of near infra-red radiation, covered by a tough, protective UV-absorbing external layer. Reflecting the heat from the sun results in substantial savings in air conditioning costs on hot summer days, while transmitting useful light to beautifully illuminate the area underneath without additional lamps.

Conversely, the multi-wall polycarbonate sheet construction offers outstanding thermal insulation performance for additional energy cost savings at night and during winter months.

Primalite sheets offer 200 times the impact strength of glass of comparable thickness, at just 1/6th the weight. This allows wider spans and lighter support structures for more innovative glazing designs, including arches. There are no special tool, training or material handling requirements, resulting in faster and lower cost construction.
