Eurocell has launched the Skypod Acute, following the success of the Skypod range of PVC-U skylights.
The Skypod Acute is suitable for more commercial applications such as schools, colleges, hospitals and offices, where the pitch degree is better suited to larger, multi-storey buildings, as it features a steeper pitch at 35 degrees.
It has the same stylish, narrow glazing bars and generous sightlines for residential properties as the rest of the Skypod range and in its square format it now fits an even smaller aperture, allowing more light into the home.
Sightlines are improved and more natural light is let in as no sidebars are required on sizes up to 1.5m x 2.75m. Skypod Acute is supplied with self-cleaning, temperature controlled glass in Blue, Neutral, Bronze and Clear as standard, with a U-Value of 1.0W/m2K achievable.
Skypod is the most effective way to boost headroom and volume, while welcoming extra natural light into otherwise drab flat-roofed rooms. Also, with pre-drilled screw holes, it is easy to fit.
Available with a ten year guarantee, the Skypod Acute is available in the full colour range of Anthracite Grey, Moondust Grey, Golden Oak, Rosewood and White.
The latest Builders Merchant Building Index (BMBI) report shows builders’ merchants’ value sales in October were up +1.2% compared to the same month last year.
