In the world of construction and exterior design, finding a material that combines aesthetics, strength and functionality isn't always easy. However, the PC 20 Sunsystem, a compact polycarbonate roof system, is an ideal solution for those looking for a modern, durable and easy-to-install option.

What is Sunsystem?

Sunsystem is a panel of compact polycarbonate designed to offer an elegant and efficient alternative to more traditional materials such as glass. Its innovative design allows it to be installed on beams with a high load capacity, ensuring stability and safety.

Sunsystem advantages

This roof system offers a number of benefits that make it a prominent option:

• Sophisticated appearance: Its transparent finish mimics the elegance of glass, providing a modern touch to any structure.
• Easy installation: Thanks to their profiled design, the panels are screwed directly to the support structure by means of an overlapping system.
• UV protection: Blocks 99.9% of ultraviolet rays, protecting both people and objects under the cover.
• High strength: Withstands extreme weather conditions, including strong wind, snow and hail loads.
• Minimal maintenance: Its composition and design allow it to be kept in optimal condition with little effort.
• Fire resistance: Complies with regulations Euroclasses EN13501-1 Bs1d0, making it a self-extinguishing and safe material for various applications.

Sunsystem applications

Its versatility makes it perfect for a wide variety of outdoor uses, such as:

• Pergolas and kiosks: Recreational spaces with protection without sacrificing natural light.
• Patio covers: Ideal for expanding outdoor areas and making them more functional.
• Solariums: It allows you to enjoy the sun without being directly exposed to UV rays.
• Carports: Protects vehicles from the elements without the need for heavy structures.

Availability and Design Options

Sunsystem is available in different colors, such as solar gray, bluish breeze and colorless, allowing it to be adapted to different architectural styles. In addition, with a thickness of 3 mm and a width of 600 mm, its structure offers the perfect combination of lightness and resistance.

Installation and Maintenance

• Minimum slope: A minimum slope of 5% is recommended for proper water evacuation.
• Lateral overlap: It must be done with other plates of the same profile to ensure tightness.
• Thermal expansion: Due to the thermal expansion coefficient of polycarbonate, which is higher than that of other covering materials, it is essential to provide systems that allow its free expansion.
• Adequate attachment: The fastening must be done on the griddle, using hats to distribute pressure and improve tightness. The screws must be selected based on the material of the support and the requirements for strength and durability.

Conclusion

If you are looking for a roof solution that combines design, strength and easy installation, PC 20 Sunsystem is an option that makes a difference. Its adaptability and multiple advantages make it the ideal choice for projects that require a touch of modernity and functionality.
