The Architecture of Light
The sun: the best natural source of light and energy. Multilight® harnesses this inexhaustible source, providing exceptional quality of light.
Multilight’s® glazing material features multicell panels which offer customers the best combination of translucency and strength, transmitting an even diffusion of natural light, with superior durability and impact resistance.
The optimal solar and thermal balance
Multilight® provides exceptional quality of light. Its rich non-industrial visual appeal delivers thermal insulation and UV protection.
By filtering the amount of light – depending on the different daytime hours – Multilight® contributes to optimal efficiency and significant savings in energy costs.
The Multilight® Microcell structure:
Exceptional durability and thermal insulation
Multilight® Microcell panels are manufactured with unique and innovative extrusion technology, providing ten times more cells than the majority of other sheets on the market. The smaller spans between the rib supports give customers the best combination of translucency and strength. Multilight® Microcell panels are 100% leak proof, offering superior impact resistance and thermal insulation.
Superior light diffusion
The Microcell structure transmits an even diffusion of natural
light, producing a rich look. Specifically designed for architectural daylight applications, the tight spacing between the ribs produces a superior quality of light, offering unique iridescence - reflecting and dispersing light in a way unmatched by any other material. Multilight® Microcell panels are available in a range of thicknesses and widths.
