Low Carbon Technology

The GREEN-IT approved Insulator Rooflight featuring the unique honeycomb core manufactured from sustainable and recyclable materials.

Understanding the make up of the embodied carbon element within a product has for example resulted in the development of innovative raw material engineering leading to a new range of low carbon rooflight products.

Hambleside Danelaw’s Queen’s award-winning Insulator in-plane rooflight has become the first and only British rooflight to be labelled as an energyefficient construction product under the EU’s GREEN-IT scheme and it now offers an embodied carbon element some 64% below other traditional GRP roof lights making it a true low carbon energy saving product.

This product uses enhanced reinforcement materials which substantially reduces the amount of resin required for manufacture, yet results in a product with a service life well in excess of 35 years and a non fragility life in excess of 45 years.
