Adding A Walkway Canopy To Your Design

A walkway canopy is architecture’s way of turning the outdoors into a comfort zone for both commercial and residential settings. Whether your need for a covered walkway canopy is for a home or business environment, you’ll appreciate the benefits that Danpal manufacturing and design bring to canopy architecture. Walkway canopies are often seen in outdoor restaurant seating, where they provide covering for diners but also add to the ambience of the establishment. They are also seen in home landscaping, where they can add a festive touch to the exterior appearance of a house. But a Danpal walkway canopy design is much more than a piece of canvas on a pole. The famed Danpal reputation for innovation and visual appeal makes polycarbonate canopy design an attractive and useful feature for your building.

Of course, we immediately think of the ways that walkway canopy systems offer shelter from the elements, but even the simplest of walkway awnings can transform the visual aspect of the landscape. A street of shops distinguished by the items that are sold within, but connected by an exterior walkway canopy, gives a commercial zone a picturesque appearance. In a domestic setting, a covered walkway canopy at a festive occasion shields guests from rain as they enjoy the fresh air and the company of others. Whether you’re enjoying alfresco dining at your favorite restaurant or chatting with friends at a neighborhood get-together, you can appreciate the ways in which an outdoor walkway canopy enhances the occasion.

A Danpalon Canopy Redefines Outdoor Architectural Canopy Design

Don’t be confused when we talk of daylighting architecture and canopy roof design in the same sentence. The combination of natural light and architecture has brought about a dynamic partnership between what nature can provide and what technology can enhance.

Danpal is a pioneer in daylighting architecture, the process by which natural light becomes one of the building components of a design. Of course, as soon as Danpal is part of the conversation about canopy roof material, the conversation turns to a polycarbonate roof canopy. It’s light in weight and easy to work with, which gives it a versatility that’s especially convenient for an outdoor setting. You’ve seen polycarbonate canopy systems in a variety of locations, and you’re used to seeing polycarbonate used in conservatories, garages, decks, patios and even pool covers. It’s practically unbreakable, which helps to explain how polycarbonate canopy design has captivated the imagination of architects.

Because it’s 250 times stronger than conventional glass, polycarbonate is able to hold up against harsh weather. That means that whether the season features extreme cold or extreme heat, polycarbonate covered walkways are up to the challenge.

The Walkway Canopy Of Hwa Hun

Located near Seoul near Bukhansan Mountain in Korea, Hwa Hun or “Blooming House” is a brilliant example of how Danpal materials and stunning architecture combine to create a design that is both aesthetically impressive and structurally superior. The house not only uses Danpalon® in its Danpal façade system but also in its walkway canopy, where Danpalon® is placed over steel pipes. An architectural canopy is an invigorating element for a residence or a business that also adds to the appeal of the neighborhood.

The Advantages Of Danpalon® For Your Walkway Canopy

The reason why Danpalon® panels are the preferred choice for canopy roof systems is easy to understand. It’s well known in the construction industry that any Danpal product is subjected to rigorous in-house quality control testing so that the final results meet Danpal standards. Because Danpal is an international company with a thriving commercial presence on five continents, its global markets are an important consideration when manufacturing materials for export. Danpal products perform to excel regardless of where they are installed: whether it’s the Alps of France or the Australian Outback, Danpal manufactures materials that will be durable enough to withstand weather conditions all over the world.

Walkway CanopyVersatility Of Materials And Colors In Walkway Canopies

For business establishments that want to make sure the external features of their setting enhance the overall appearance and don’t detract from the impression that’s made on customers, there are various options to choose from when considering polycarbonate canopy details.

You might choose simple walkway canopies that are utilitarian in function, or you might be aiming for a more elaborate presentation that adds visual appeal. Danpal offers various options in building canopy design that will meet the widest range of customer preferences.

Walkway Canopies Provide Shelter From The Elements

People love being outside, until bad weather makes an appearance. With the arrival of summer, more events are held outside. For restaurants welcoming the return to normal after the constraints imposed by COVID, outdoor seating remains a popular option. An attractive walkway canopy design is a visual way for a business to look inviting.

Diners sitting at a table might have an umbrella to shelter them from harsh sunshine or blustery conditions, but servers bringing menu items to those tables can benefit from a canopy that shields the transit paths from exposure. Danpal flexibility and ease of access are always an important factor when making a decision on the dimensions of the walkway canopy that’s needed.

Optimizing Natural Light With Danpal’s Walkway Canopy Systems

Danpal is a pioneer in daylighting architecture, the process by which natural light becomes one of the building components of a design. Whether you are in the market for a walkway canopy or skylight roofing or any of the Danpal systems, it’s quite likely that you’ll want to check out the options that come with daylighting architecture. Studies have shown that adding more natural light improves productivity and nurtures a sense of wellness. In these stressful times, a little more sunshine can go a long way toward making building structures more holistic for those inside.

Newhaven Energy Recovery Facility, a Curvaceous Colosus

Imposing in size but well-integrated in its environment, the Newhaven Energy Recovery Facility on quite a difficult terrain, along the Ouse river, wedged between heterogeneous industrial buildings and residential areas, along a regional park.

The building is partially buried and emerges from the ground only 27 m high out of the 45 m required for the waste treatment process that is carried out over 200 m in length.

All that can be seen has been softened, rounded, curved to visually blur the building and reduce the impact on the environment. The building exterior is designed in three parts, which correspond to different stages of waste treatment.

On one side, the waste is received under a steel cladding, whereas at the other end an apse in porous textile covers the cooling elements. Between the two, a huge Danpalon® hall covers the processing pit and the heart of the system. During the day, light enters and lights up the installations. At night, the continuous activity of the building is gently enhanced with minimal light pollution.

In slightly cloudy weather, the milky appearance of the cladding allows it to almost merge with the sky, thus minimizing the visual impact of the imposing building. It was a difficult architectural choice to have made transparent what is usually opaque, and curve what is usually square. A choice that has had a positive effect as this treatment center has not been subject to the usual controversies that these kinds of projects are generally known to face.

Best Polycarbonate Roofing

The popularity of polycarbonate as a building material has made Danpal the building company with the best polycarbonate roofing in today’s market. What’s so remarkable about polycarbonate roofing?  Its strength, for one thing; its flexibility for another. The reason that Danpal is a leader in roofing manufacturing is that clients are so pleased with the process and the results that they see.  Architects enjoy the options that polycarbonate roofing gives them and everyone appreciates the visual beauty of the finished product. Danpal’s reputation for quality is well known in the industry and our roofing is one of the reasons why. 

Best Polycarbonate Roofing Systems

Danpal® roofing systems can be installed above or below a structure depending on its engineering and design requirements. With a variety of snap-on, interlocking, dry-glazed connectors, the roofing is a marvel of flexibility.  Its flexibility doesn’t diminish its strength, however; the polycarbonate roofing is made to stand up to weather, no matter how extreme. 

Energy Efficiency and the Polycarbonate Roofing Sheets

Improved “U” and “R” values attest to the impressive energy efficiency of Danpal’s polycarbonate roofing systems.  Its resistance to the elements prevents the pounding hail, driving rain, and heavy snow from penetrating a building’s defenses and causing damage to the insulation inside.  Compromised insulation lets heating and cooling escape to the outside, leading to wasted energy and higher utility costs. 

The Esthetic Qualities of the Polycarbonate Roofing System

It’s microcell technology that improves the quality of roofing by Danpal. There is a tight spacing between the ribs, which displays better natural lighting and, as a result, a more attractive appearance. You can see what we mean when you look at the Zennith Sports Center, a South Korean golf course.  Here, the beauty is apparent, the strength is expected.

Skylight Roofing Lets Daylight In But Keeps Weather Out

We want it all! We want the beauty of the outdoors but we don’t want to give up the comfort of our indoor dwellings. We yearn for the bright light outside, but our work is conducted within four walls and it seems as if there’s no way to combine the vitality of the outdoors with the practical efficiency of our inside lives. But don’t give up, because there is a way to welcome the sunshine and daylight of the outside world without trying to convince your boss that you’d be more productive if you worked from a treehouse. Skylight roofing is the answer. It’s easy to work with and easy to install and once you have it, you’ll never want to go back to the old-style roofing that keeps the daylight out of sight.

WEATHER AND SKYLIGHT ROOFING WORKING TOGETHER

The treehouse idea really wouldn’t work at all so before you start measuring the height of the branches where you live or work, give skylight roofing some consideration. Weather is a 24/7, 365-days-a-year presence in our lives. The plentiful daylight of summer gives way to the early darkness of fall and winter. Hot, sunny days share equal time, in season, with bitterly cold ones. You might stroll from your car to the office on a bright spring day, but when the rain is pouring down, you’re sprinting as fast as you can to get inside where it’s dry. Skylight roofing lets the weather be the weather and keeps you comfortable inside. You enjoy the way that the light transforms the illumination in your working and living spaces with skylight roofing, and you’re not inconvenienced when the weather is inclement, because you’re inside.

HOW SKYLIGHT ROOFING KEEPS WEATHER IN BALANCE

Once again, it’s Danpal innovation that has developed the means to satisfy everyone who wants it all. Skylight roofing allows sunshine to enter the building, but it blocks snow, rain, wind, and hail from coming inside. That’s because of microcell technology, which has been perfected so that it provides 100% watertight protection against wet weather. You know it’s raining or snowing outside, but it doesn’t interfere with your activities. You’ll reap the benefits of weather—more exposure to sunlight which will improve your Vitamin D levels, without having to wear sunscreen in order to prevent sunburn; you’ll see better because natural light is so beneficial to vision, but you’re not without access to the familiar features of the workplace and living space. The panel ribs of the roofing are spaced tightly together in order to enhance the effect of the light.

WORKING WITH SKYLIGHT ROOFING IS EASY

Another favorite aspect of skylight roofing is the ease of installation. Danpal offers varying lengths and sizes of roofing, all of which slot into designated spots effortlessly and easily without a lot of work. So, not only is skylight roofing please you, but it’s also a pleasure for the crew that’s installing it.

If you want the best of weather without its drawbacks, skylight roofing is the solution.

Danpal Latin America Conference 2019

Danpal recently held its latest biennial Danpal Latin American Conference 2019, brilliantly hosted, with the help of our extended Danpal family in the Dominican Republic. The conference, which ran between the 03 to the 06 June 2019, was well-attended by our partners from 9 different countries. The venue for this year’s conference, chosen by Danpal, was the centrally located resort town, of Punta Cana.

The beaches of Punta Cana, are renowned for their picture-perfect quality and remain a world-wide drawcard. Our 24 delegates, however, were gathered together and focused for three days of training, expertly presented by our team from Danpal. The three days ran from 09h00 each morning and was kept on schedule, with the help of our regional manager from Chile, Paula Abrigo. During this time we also shared our experiences in marketing our brand and together generated new ideas on how to best grow market share.

We boldly kicked off our conference with a brief but much needed introductory presentation, delivered expertly by Paula. This was then followed by technical presentations on our more advanced solutions, based on standard Danpal systems. The importance of these presentations cannot be over-emphasized, as an intimate knowledge of our systems, is crucial for their correct implementation. This lead on to a more detailed focus on our newer systems, such as the new Danpatherm RK7 Roofing and Everbright Roofing Solutions. Our chief-engineer, Israel Wielgus, was as usual on top form, providing us, his blend of technical information – peppered with his own brand of humor.

There were several impressive case-studies presented by our members from Mexico, Chile, Colombia, The Dominican Republic, Argentina, and Costa Rica. These projects demonstrated the successful use of various Danpal building envelope solutions, for both facades and roofs. All in all, it was an impressive display of Danpalon 3DLITE, Danpalon Compact, NM and even Danpatherm K7 systems featuring integrated LED’s.

On day three, we took the time to re-focus on marketing, an essential element, necessary for any successful business. Our LATAM area manager, Paula Abrigo, once again took center stage and presented on our latest focus and the digital tools that we rely on to reach our global market base. These marketing tools and the processes we have implemented, provide the backbone of our current efforts. During these presentations, we encouraged our extended Danpal family from across Latin America, to engage with us as we proposed the inclusion of these technologies.

Danpal Latin America Conference 2019
Danpal Latin America Conference 2019

It was not all hard work and presentations however, as evenings were spent networking with our counterparts at the welcoming La Cana Steak House. The eatery takes its name from the sugar cane crops that surround the town of La Romana, and provided the perfect backdrop, for time spent liaising with colleagues. All in all, it was a pleasure using the time getting to know and network with all of our various delegates.

A few key points were made clear to us, during this time we set-aside and spent together. Amongst them, Danpal recognizes the need more than ever, to provide our global distributors and partners, localized support. Sometimes, this can mean adapting to the needs of each market’s customs, languages, and regulations. Importantly, this conference also gave us the opportunity to engage with our valued global family, and to reaffirm our message of Light Architecture. Finally, we can confidently report back, that whilst all who attended, provided us with invaluable feedback. All who attended also learned more about how we can all work together to continue to grow our global market share. – Adios, y hasta la proxima!

Skylight Roofing Lets Us Live In The Light!

Wouldn’t you like to have a little more daylight in your life? Have you ever sat in a meeting and found your attention wandering as you gazed out the window and wished that you could enjoy more of the sunlight? Does your life feel as if the day is taken up with too many ceilings and floors and doors, and not enough natural light? What you’re feeling is actually natural, pun intended. As human beings, we crave the light. Natural light is the magic ingredient in the formula of life. It can lift our spirits when we’re feeling down. It can make us more productive when we can’t seem to break out of a dull routine. And it also helps us to see better! Grateful as we are for artificial light, it doesn’t compare to the original light of the sun.

Try Skylight Roofing For More Daylight In Your Life

Now that we’ve settled on the fact that we’d like more sky, less roof in our lives, what do we do about it? Tents and treehouses have their place in our outdoor options, but they really wouldn’t work for a permanent lifestyle. Well, what about skylight roofing? Buildings have to have roofs, and people have to have light. Why not choose the option that allows you to have what you must include without sacrificing what you really want?

Skylight RoofingSkylight Roofing Is Strong Enough To Handle Weather

Skylight roofing is a much better option than living out of doors, so before you starting moving the dining room furniture out to the lawn, stop for a minute and think about it. The reason humans don’t live outside is because that’s where the weather is. When we’re inside, we’re comfortable and safe. Outside—well, that’s where the rain falls and the snow flies; it’s where the winds blow, the hail hits, and the sun burns. You don’t really want to have to deal with all that, do you? Of course not. With skylight roofing, you won’t have to. Danpal’s skylight roofing, thanks to microcell technology, is completely, 100% watertight and won’t allow moisture from rain and snow to enter. It’s also able to withstand the intensity of the sunlight because it has UV protection. Light inside, weather outside; that’s what you have to look forward to with skylight roofing.

More About Skylight Roofing and Natural Light

Danpal has been a leader in the building materials industry for over 50 years. During that time, we’ve also pioneered daylighting architecture, a wonderful innovation that brings natural light inside, in exactly the amounts that you want. People who have access to natural light in the workplace find that they’re more productive. Those whose homes are blessed with natural light have discovered that their mood improves and the atmosphere is a much more pleasant one. Since we already know how much natural light benefits us, and we realize that all of our buildings have to have roofs, doesn’t it make sense to choice skylight roofing?

Roofing Stands Tough Against Weather

With the rise of environmental consciousness has come a dynamic new outlook on the way we live, the foods we eat, the cars we drive and, last but not least, the buildings in which we live and work. At Danpal, we fulfill our purpose to develop cutting-edge building materials that support the environmental needs of the planet and meet the expectations of our clients. Not all companies regard their mission in this light but for us, the products that we create are designed to last. We believe that any product with a life span should accommodate the next generation of Earth’s occupants. Danpal’s plastic roofing is just one of the products in our line that reflects this awareness of Global Vision, Local Focus. That’s the Danpal motto and it’s the way we do business.

Danpal Plastic Roofing Partners With The Environment

Roofing may not seem like a topic that measures up to something as broad as environmental responsibility, but Danpal’s designers and engineers reflect the company philosophy as they develop our products. Roofing is the defense system that protects a building from the invading forces of nature. In that role, Danpal’s plastic roofing, because it’s designed to keep out moisture and drafts, is partnering with the environment so that the energy that’s used remains inside the building. There’s a lot that people don’t know about how effective plastic roofing is and we’re happy to explain why you should consider it for your roofing needs.

Plastic RoofingPlastic Roofing Supports Energy Efficiency

Buildings in developed countries are the source of about 40% of the energy usage in those respective nations. That’s why plastic roofing, which is so environmentally efficient, is the smart, savvy choice for today’s eco-minded clients. Keeping energy within the building is vital. That’s why we recommend our high-quality plastic roofing. It saves on energy usage by avoiding waste, and that saves money. Any building that’s made from low-quality materials isn’t going to last against the day-to-day buffeting that it receives from weather and that’s when energy efficiency is at risk. If moisture manages to penetrate a building, it’s only a matter of time before insulation is compromised and energy is lost. Not only will you be paying for the energy that you use, but you’re also paying for the energy that’s escaping. Danpal plastic roofing is designed to keep energy inside and weather outside.

Keeping Weather From Getting Inside Your Building

Part of the reason that plastic roofing is so effective at supporting energy efficiency within is that it’s so good at keeping weather outside. Nature is a powerful force and no matter in which region you live, it’s quite likely that you’ve experienced the elements. A thunderstorm, with its powerful winds and driving rain, lets us know that nature calls the shots. Or maybe it’s a furious winter storm that sends freezing temperatures, heavy snowfall, and gusts of wind that lets us know that we’re at nature’s mercy. We have the option of going indoors to escape the fury of weather but buildings have nowhere to go. It’s for that reason that they must be designed and built with the highest quality of products, like our plastic roofing.

Skylight Roofing Brings Weather Resistance To Your Building

Some people never notice the roof of their homes or offices until something happens. When a roof develops a leak after a particularly powerful rain storm or a heavy snowfall, people notice. When there’s damage to a roof that’s caused by hail or winds, it’s noticed. But other than that, roofs are mostly seen as no more than the top of a building, not very interesting, not very esthetic. Just a roof.

But skylight roofing changes the dull image of a roof into something that’s contemporary and attractive. Skylight roofing lets a building enjoy more of what we all appreciate, and that’s daylight. Skylight roofing turns a roof from dull to dynamic, because it maintains the security of a roof’s function while adding esthetics to the formula. When you place a roof upon a building, your first concern is whether or not it will be able to do its job and withstand the potentially devastating effects of weather. But what if you can have that high level of performance in your roof, and can also have the charm and appeal of skylight roofing?

Skylight RoofDanpavault Barrel Vault Skylight System

Danpal’s reputation for excellent skylight roofing has been sealed with the effectiveness of tis Danpavault Barrel Vault Skylight System. Our skylight roof system is compatible with building that it’s covering; it can be installed on all kinds of roofing, profiled metal, and concrete. Microcell technology, a trademark of Danpal’s superior product line, keeps snow and rain out so that leaks don’t develop. The superior performance of microcell technology, by shielding the building from moisture, is a primary factor in preventing mold from developing inside a building. Once mold spreads, it affects the health and wellbeing of the occupants of a building, particularly those who may have allergies or respiratory conditions such as asthma.

Letting In The Daylight With Skylight Roofing

Skylight roofing is very effective in preventing the negative effects of weather, such as rain and snow, from invading a building’s internal area. Skylight roofing is just as effective in letting in the outside features that building occupants do want to see, and that’s daylight. Natural lighting makes an incredible difference in the way a building’s occupants feel about themselves. It adds to their sense of wellbeing and it improves productivity.. It’s also easier to see when more natural light is admitted into a building.

People who have skylight roofing appreciate the way in which it transforms a building. They relish the way that daylight is no longer denied to them just because they have to spend the day indoors working. Skylight roofing is a liberating architectural innovation that, like all Danpal products, is as strong as it is attractive. At Danpal, a company with half a century invested in its industry, commitment to performance is the way we do business. We believe in our products, we believe in satisfying our customers, and we believe in making the world a better place with the buildings we construct. If you’re looking for roofing that is more than a drab cover to a building, it’s time for you to give skylight roofing a try.

Skylight Roofing Captures Daylight

As the weather begins to change from cold, chilly winter to warmer spring, we all try to spend as much time outside as we possibly can. For everyone who lives in the climate zones where snow, cold winds and ice are a feature of daily existence for three to four months of the year, spring is like the call of the siren. We want to go outside and enjoy the beauty of nature, the fragrant breezes, and most of all, the daylight. But we can’t, because we have to stay inside to work. Once we get home, we’re so busy with household tasks and family needs that the day seems to escape from us. Maybe that’s why skylight roofing is so popular; it’s a way to capture some of that daylight even though we’re inside. Danpal skylight roofing, with the famed daylighting architecture that Danpal has pioneered, is one way to hold onto as much natural light as possible, even when inside.

SKYLIGHT ROOFING BRINGS IN MORE LIGHT

If you think that you feel better in natural light, you’re not imagining it. Studies have proven what we already now: we like the light! We’re more productive in natural light; we feel better about ourselves; our attitude is more positive. We need artificial light, too, but there’s just nothing like the natural light and with skylight roofing, that natural light is present inside your living space or work space.

Skylight Roofing THE COMPATIBILITY OF SKYLIGHT ROOFING WITH OTHER ROOFING TYPES

You’ll be glad to learn that whether your existing roof is concrete or profiled metal, skylight roofing is easy to install. Danpal’s roofing systems are customizable so that they can vary in length and size; this makes them easy to integrate and connect into place. What does this mean for the customer? Less time and effort during the installation process equals less inconvenience and less cost.

SKYLIGHT ROOFING IS STRONG ENOUGH FOR THE WORST WEATHER

Danpal uses microcell technology because it’s so strong. Weather is a fierce foe but a building has to be able to withstand the forces of nature, whether it’s the powerful rainstorms that send water flooding from the skies, or harsh winter snows and winds. There’s no way to avoid weather, so the only solution is to design buildings that are strong enough to handle it. That’s why microcell technology, with its resistance to the damage that weather can do, is such an asset for skylight roofing. And Danpal skylight roofing also has UV protection, because even those hot, sunny days that we love can be hard on a roof if it’s not protected.

LEARN MORE ABOUT THE DANPAVAULT BARREL VAULT SKYLIGHT SYSTEM

With the Danpavault Barrel Vault Skylight System, your building benefits from a skylight roofing system with evenly diffused natural light, optimum insulation, easy integration, and UV protection. Installation is no problem because it can be a self-supporting skylight or it can be placed on top of a metal structure. Different span sizes can be accommodated with aluminum framing options. Customization, always a favorite feature with architects, offers more freedom and flexibility in the design.

If you’re eager to have more daylight in your life, skylight roofing can make it happen.

Skylight Roof, Stronger and Lighter Than You Think

Construction in today’s world needs to be able to adhere to regulations which maintain safe and sustainable practices. It must be able to create a structure that delivers energy efficiency. It should be attractive in appearance. Skylight roofing meets all of those requirements, with a little something extra: it’s the kind of roofing that gets noticed. Danpal skylight roof also offers a little something extra, particularly in its versatility. With varying lengths and sizes that slot into their designated places, our skylight roofing is easily integrated and installed. That means that, regardless of whether your roofing is concrete or profiled metal, you can still use skylight roofing. There are so many advantages that you’ll wonder why you didn’t install it sooner.

Skylight RoofingNo Weather Worries: Skylight Roofing Can Handle the Weather

Skylight roofing has an esthetic flavor that traditional roofing lacks, but don’t worry that it acquired that trait at the expense of its strength, because that’s not the case at all. Skylight roofing can hold its own when it comes to protecting a building from the powerful forces of nature that can cause damage. Danpal’s microcell technology is 100% watertight, permitting no rain or snow from outside to invade the interior of a building or allow moisture to develop.

The Danpavault Barrel Vault Skylight System

Danpal is known as a pioneer in daylighting architecture, so it’s no surprise that we’ve perfected skylight roofing that incorporates natural lighting into our buildings. You’ll see how Danpal roofing systems and the Danpavault Barrel Vault Skylight System deliver easy integration, superior insulation, and UV protection for a longer life.

With daylight as a feature of the building, longer life also means better life, because natural lighting is so much better than relying solely on artificial light. Imagine how it will be when your skylight roofing brings daylight into your building so that you can see better, feel better, and work better. It’s not just productivity that’s improved with the inclusion of natural light. Studies show that people find that they actually do feel better when natural light is added to the interior of their workspace and living space. You might not expect skylight roofing to improve your quality of life, but daylight makes a difference that matters!

How Daylighting Improves a Building’s Appearance with Skylight Roofing

We’ve explained how much the inclusion of natural daylight into your building can add to its appeal. But the esthetic improvements that skylight roofing makes possible don’t end there. The ribs of the panels are tightly spaced so that, when joined with the light, the visual effect is stunning. With skylight roofing, you have transparency that’s actually superior to the appearance of glass.

Skylight roofing is roofing that knows how to please. It’s flexible and easy to work with, which is a bonus for architects, construction crews, and clients. It offers the benefits of natural light within an internal structure so that you enjoy daylight from the comfort of your living space or workspace. Why not choose the skylight roofing that you’ve always wanted?

Our skylight roofs are also highly compatible with many other different kinds of roofing. It’s easy to install our roofs, even next to concrete or metal ones, and there is no chance that they will look out of place. And the other roof won’t even affect the performance of your new skylight.

For most of our customers, lighting is one of the biggest things they have on their minds when they buy a Danpal skylight roof system. We have the Danpavault Barrel Vault Skylight roof system that is perfect for ensuring the maximum amount of light gets through the roof, as it is extremely effective at diffusing light through your space. Not only that, though, but it also comes with extended UV protection and brilliant thermal insulation.

Something that all types of Skylight Roof Systems have to deal with on a day to day basis is the weather. Excessive wind, snow, and hail can all damage roofs over time but, thanks to our microcell technology in our skylights, each of our roofing systems come with a very high resistance. Plus, they are also 100% watertight, meaning you won’t need to worry about any leaks or insulation issues.

Choosing the right Roofing Material

Useful advice to keep in mind when choosing the right roofing material

No matter what sort of structure you are involved with designing, the roof is always one of the most important pieces of the overall puzzle. It is the icing on the cake. If you get the roofing material wrong, all of your hard work that has gone into the overall structure will have been for nothing.

This is how precise you have to be with your selection, as there is a staggering amount of options out there on the market today for you to choose from, that it can often be a stressful period trying to find the one that is best suited to that particular design and structure.

There are some key factors to take into consideration during the selection process and by thinking about them carefully, you will get a much better idea of what it is that you are looking for.

Weather conditions

One of the fundamental things that you have to consider when selecting a roof is ensuring that it will be able to withstand any potential conditions that are going to be thrown at it, whether that is heavy winds, hail or snow.

This is the main barrier between the interior and the exterior of the building and needs to be able to withstand large volumes of snow if you are in such an area, as well as the effects that excessive heat or cold may have on the roof. Certain types of roofs work better in particular types of climates.

Appearance

You want your structure to look visually pleasing. The roof is very visible when you look at any structure from the street, so this has a significant effect on the finished look of the building. You should have the texture, type and colour of the roof matched with the rest of the building’s exterior style and finish.

Always stay true to your vision as an architect or designer, as well as keeping in line with the architectural style of the building. You don’t want to mismatch two different styles, as it will look conjoined and rushed.

Durability and longevity of the roofing material

While cost of the roof is an important factor to consider, you really need to figure out how long this roof will last on the structure. You could buy a cheap roof that gives you all sorts of problems not long down the line and you will incur more expense trying to repair it than you would have spent paying extra for the higher quality roof.
