Fibreglass Roofing

Topglass® translucent roofing has been specifically developed to combat the effect of ultraviolet rays and atmospheric pollutants, without the yellowing and rapid product degradation associated with commonly available glass-reinforced roof sheeting.

At Alsynite we manufacture and distribute a vast range of natural lighting products under the well-respected Topglass® Brand, for industrial, commercial, horticultural, and domestic projects.

Topglass® is a fibreglass product that is a commercial-grade GRP (glass fibre-reinforced polyester) and is used as a translucent roofing and cladding product. Through research and development, Alsynite has expanded its range of products into twin skin and tripleskin systems to address condensation issues where an insulated product is a requirement.

Alsynite sheeting is available in a wide range of products, weights, pigments, and colours. It is competitively priced and supported by warranties of up to 25 years, depending on the product selected. Fibreglass roof sheeting is manufactured to meet the AS/NZS.4256:3 manufacturing standard, and is JAS-ANZ Certified, which has legal recognition in more than 90 countries.

Alsynite^® Topglass^® is manufactured exclusively with Owens Corning^® high performance fibre reinforcement products.

HIGH WIND ZONE INFORMATION

A new wind zone category has been introduced in the NZS 3604:2011 Timber-Framed Buildings, and the amended E2/AS1. The Extra High Wind Zone Category allows for a wind speed of up to 55 m/s. This means more buildings come within the scope of NZS3604:2011 and E2/AS1. Source: Build Magazine, Feb/March, 2012. Author: Elide Alkink, Freelance Technical Writer.
