Industrial Skylight Polycarbonate
High Performance IR
Product
Taylon Skylights’ Dual-Glazed Industrial Skylight with ACRYLITE® Heatstop over Polycarbonate is designed to deliver exceptional daylighting while significantly reducing unwanted heat gain. The innovative dual-glass system combines an outer layer of Heatstop with an inner polycarbonate layer, allowing high levels of visible light to enter while reflecting a substantial portion of infrared (IR) radiation. By using special coatings and insulative materials to reflect solar energy and improve U-factors and Solar Heat Gain Coefficients (SHGC), this skylight creates brighter, cooler, and more energy-efficient industrial spaces, making it ideal for warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and distribution centers.
Engineered for demanding environments, the Heatstop provides superior thermal performance, UV resistance, and long-term optical clarity. The polycarbonate inner layer adds impact resistance and durability, ensuring the skylight maintains integrity under harsh weather and heavy-duty industrial conditions. Together, the dual-glazed design delivers a robust system that reduces heat transfer, limits condensation, and ensures consistent performance over time, while maintaining maximum natural daylight.
The dual-glazed Heatstop-over-polycarbonate system is highly effective at lowering energy costs. Facilities replacing traditional skylights with this system can see a reduction in HVAC and overhead lighting loads by up to 33%, while natural sunlight reduces reliance on artificial lighting. The IR-reflecting properties of Heatstop are inherent to the material—not a coating—ensuring long-lasting thermal benefits without sacrificing daylight transmission. This combination enhances workplace comfort, safety, and operational efficiency.
With its unmatched balance of energy efficiency, impact resistance, and daylighting performance, the Taylon Skylights Heatstop-over-Polycarbonate system is an ideal solution for “green” building initiatives and industrial facilities seeking reliable, high-performance skylights. Available with optional impact modifiers for additional protection, it provides a long-lasting, sustainable, and cost-effective daylighting solution for large-scale commercial and industrial projects.
