Glass roof solutions for commercial buildings
[edit]
Glass roof solutions can transform commercial buildings with daylight and fresh air.
A VELUX Commercial glass roof system is a daylighting solution that can be customised to fit any commercial building project's specifications and daylighting needs. To maximise the amount of daylight entering a space, glass roof systems can be put on flat and sloped roofs. Glass roof systems can incorporate double or triple-glazing panels within new-build or refurbishment projects, or as part of an extension.
Glass roof systems come in various shapes, sizes, and configurations to fit even the most intricate roof structures. Prefabricated, standard, or made-to-measure rooflights promote cutting-edge architectural concepts and sustainability objectives.
Glass roof systems can lower energy usage, indoor carbon dioxide levels and help create environments that improve the well-being of occupants by introducing fresh air via comfort ventilation and safety with smoke and heat exhaust ventilation.
