In the construction industry, skylights are key materials for enhancing the brightness of spaces. FRP (fiberglass reinforced plastic) transparent skylights, as a new type of building material, are widely used in industrial plants, greenhouses, and other locations due to their excellent light transmittance and corrosion resistance.

 

FRP skylights are primarily composed of fiberglass reinforced plastic and offer the following advantages: light transmittance exceeding 85%, strong UV resistance, and a service life of 10-15 years. When purchasing, pay attention to the thickness; common specifications range from 1.5mm to 3mm, with greater thickness providing stronger impact resistance.

 

Before installation, check the purlin spacing on the roof. It is generally recommended that the purlin spacing not exceed 1.2 meters. Prepare necessary fasteners, sealant, and other auxiliary materials. Leave 5-10mm of expansion and contraction space at the edges of the skylights to prevent cracking caused by thermal expansion and contraction.
