Description

Opalux® SunCool™ is a metallised PVC based solar control film designed for use on many polycarbonate, GRP and plastic substrates; such as conservatory roofs. This film is of particular use where there is a need to control heat and glare issues. It’s satin finish minimises the visual impact and reduces the internal reflection. Opalux® films filter the damaging UV-rays to prolong the life of the internal furnishings. (for specialist UV Control Film). The film is recommended to be applied internally and in the daytime will lend itself to a translucent tinted grey effect.

Opalux® SunCool™ is accomplishing it’s solar heat gain rejection through absorbing a large solar spectrum, preventing it’s direct entry into your home. As a consequence, under high summer temperature, Opalux® SunCool™ will heat up. It is therefore advised to check: the stability of the panels to thermal stress. Co-extruded panels are more stable to heat. The roof plates should resist to temperature above 100oC Ventilation is also a very important consideration in controlling high summer temperatures. A space should be allowed  between the panels and the frame to permit the physical expansion.
