What is the difference between aluminum roofs and polycarbonate roofs in terms of transparency?

What is the difference between aluminum roofs and polycarbonate roofs in terms of transparency? 1

The primary difference between aluminum and polycarbonate roofs lies in their transparency, which makes them suitable for completely different applications. Polycarbonate roofs are specifically designed to allow natural light to pass through. They are a transparent or translucent plastic material, making them an ideal choice for canopies, greenhouses, skylights, and areas where natural lighting is a primary objective. However, they do not provide complete privacy and can contribute to heat gain if not treated against UV and infrared radiation. Aluminum roofs, on the other hand, are completely opaque. They are designed to provide full coverage, complete privacy, and solar protection. Their primary function is to create a solid, durable, and insulating roof. However, the design flexibility of our aluminum systems allows for the ingenious integration of lighting elements. We can easily integrate LED luminaires or recessed lighting within the roof system, creating sophisticated, tailor-made light ambiences. Therefore, the choice depends on the need: polycarbonate for natural light, aluminum for privacy and complete control of the indoor environment with elegant artificial lighting capabilities.
