Armoured skylight
Looking for an unbreakable skylight? Then polycarbonate is the best choice. The polycarbonate is highly impact-resistant. That is why we call it an ‘armoured skylight‘.
No discolouration by UV light
The polycarbonate that Skylux uses is UV-resistant, so the skylight maintains its colour and light transmission.

Avoid solar heat, go for Heatstop
Prevent your room from heating up. Our polycarbonate skylights are also available as Heatstop version. This means an additional heat-reflecting Heatstop layer is provided, which filters out infrared rays from the sun. This reduces the heating under the skylight. The Heatstop skylight has a pearlescent look.
An opal skylight is milky white and slightly less translucent than a clear skylight. The difference, however, is very small. The main reason why people choose an opal skylight is because it partly reflects solar heat. A clear skylight allows almost all heat rays to pass through, while an opal skylight only lets 42% through. The milky white appearance also provides privacy.

The more dome walls, the better the insulation value
Up to 30% more energy saving
A plastic skylight can have 1 or more dome walls. The more dome walls, the better the insulation value. Heated rooms require at least 3-walled skylights to ensure a high insulation value. we advise the best insulation possible. The best solution is a 4- or 5-walled skylight, if the budget allows.
Did you know that triple-walled skylights insulate up to 35% more than double-walled? Thanks to the triple-walled skylight, there will be no condensation when the roof is extra insulated during renovation. A small additional cost for even better insulation and energy saving. Win-Win!

Recognisable look
The red dome caps provide a recognisable look. If you see the red caps, you know you are looking at a polycarbonate skylight. The cap is made of solid plastic and has a press seal for excellent watertightness.

Pre-mounted for openable skylights
A skylight in your home is a good daylight solution, but a skylight that can be opened for fresh air ventilation is even better. An openable skylight requires a PVC frame between the dome walls and the curb. The frame is highly insulating and makes sure the seal is perfectly pressed against the curb when closing the skylight. Skylux pre-mounts everything for you. You only need to choose which opening system you want to have installed: manual or electric. This allows for a quick and easy installation.
