FILON MONARCH-F GRP
BARREL VAULT ROOFLIGHTS

Filon Monarch-F GRP barrel vault rooflights are a versatile and durable solution for commercial and industrial buildings. Featuring a series of arched, barrel shaped rooflights, Monarch-F GRP Barrel Vaults create a continuous vaulted rooflight that provides exceptional light transmission and durability, offering a blend of functionality and a modern architectural aesthetic. Our GRP Barrel Vaults are designed for use on standing seam and secret fix roofing systems, continuous ridge applications and flat roofs – making them an ideal choice for a wide range of commercial and industrial roofing applications, such as factories, warehouses and retail spaces. They are also suitable for shallow roof pitches and curved roofs down to a minimum 25m radius.

Known for its extreme durability, high impact resistance and ease of handling, we’re proud to manufacture our Filon Monarch-F Barrel Vault Rooflights from high-quality glass-reinforced polymer (GRP) to ensure maximum efficiency and effectiveness from day one until years to come.

BENEFITS OF FILON MONARCH-F GRP BARREL VAULT ROOFLIGHTS

Filon Monarch-F GRP Barrel Vaults are built to last, featuring a robust construction, the high-quality GRP material provides exceptional durability, resistance to breakage and protection against extreme temperatures.

Additionally, our Filon Protect UV absorbing coating ensures long-lasting performance and a lifespan of over 30 years.

For roofing applications where in-plane or individual dome rooflights are not suitable or maximum light transmission is required, our GRP Barrel Vaults are the perfect solution, boasting properties you can rely on.

OUT OF PLANE DESIGN REDUCES THE RISK OF ACCIDENTS

As an out-of-plane roofing application, the risk of falling through rooflights is significantly reduced when Filon GRP Barrel Vaults have been installed, due to their highly visible nature. This, paired with GRP’s naturally lightweight composition, creates a rooflight that is safer and easier to handle and install.

EXCELLENT LIGHT DIFFUSION

A key benefit of  Filon Monarch-F GRP Barrel Vaults is their exceptional diffused light transmission, designed to flood large open spaces with natural, even light distribution, minimising internal glare, excessive shadows and hot spots.

This not only reduces the need for artificial lighting but also creates a more pleasant and productive working environment for employees working in factories and warehouses by providing optimal visibility and comfort.

TOUGH AND DURABLE

Filon Monarch-F GRP Barrel Vault Rooflights are fabricated from high-quality Filon glass reinforced polyester sheets which are robust, shatter-resistant and unaffected by extreme temperatures.

Long-term surface protection is provided by Filon Protect – a UV-absorbing film that is bonded to the weather surface during manufacture and protects against UV degradation, corrosion, fungal exposure and other elements.

These combined qualities reduce the risk of discolouration, fading and wear and tear whilst increasing the life of your Filon GRP barrel vault to an expectancy of more than 30 years.
