Upgrade your conservatory roof to Smart Poly
Today's homeowner wants more from his conservatory. It is now seen as an extra
room to be used seven days a week, 365 days a year, whatever the weather. However,
as many owners can testify, a conservatory can become almost unusable on hot
sunny days because of solar heat gain, and uncomfortably cold in winter because
of heat loss. This is because up to 80% of the sun's solar energy passes directly
through a standard polycarbonate conservatory roof, creating a 'greenhouse effect'
inside, rendering the room too hot for use.
Increased comfort
Smart Poly Solar Inserts, with its integral solar protection, prevents up to
84% of the sun's solar energy from entering the conservatory through the roof,
helping to maintain a comfortable internal temperature. A smart poly conservatory
roof will also reduce glare by up to 80%, further increasing comfort levels
in the conservatory. In winter, most of the heat lost escapes through the conservatory
roof ; with a Smart Poly roof, a large proportion of rising heat is radiated
back into the room, helping to maintain comfortable temperatures and reducing
heating costs.
Zero maintenance and no need to install expensive conservatory blinds
Your improved Smart Poly roof is an integral part of the conservatory and so
requires no additional cleaning or maintenance. It will provide effective solar
protection for the lifetime of the polycarbonate (see guarantee). There is no
need to install expensive internal blind systems (so there will be none of the
cleaning problems associated with dust or dead flies) and the light, roomy feel
of the conservatory is maintained.
Strong and durable
Smart Poly Solar Inserts combines strength and durability with excellent thermal
insulation. The micro-thin polyester solar protector is highly reflective but
allows natural light to penetrate, so the conservatory remains bright and airy.
Moreover, with 99% UV protection your furniture and fabrics are protected against
fading for longer life.
Create your own ambience
The differential light technology employed by Smart Poly inserts means you can
use the conservatory at any time of day: clear blue daylight is visible through
the roof during the day, while the roof becomes opaque at night. Generated light
and heat from appliances within the conservatory are reflected back into the
room, creating a warm, welcoming ambience - just like any other room. Alternatively,
choose from a range of subtle tints to create your own look.
Advanced technology
Unlike traditional methods of climate control - which try to dissipate heat
once it has built up within the conservatory - Smart Poly reflects the sun's
heat, preventing heat gain from becoming a problem. The integral solar shield
uses advanced, ultra-clear micro-thin metalised polyester. Tried and tested
in over 10,000 installations throughout the UK, Smart Poly inserts brings new
levels of comfort and energy efficiency to your conservatory - so you can use
it every day.
We provide effective solutions to the problem of heat gain and heat loss in conservatories.

Moreover, we have been specified by architects and carried out contracts for local authorities and commercial customers. Our aim is always to provide quality and value coupled with an outstanding price to performance ratio.
Benefits and features:
Smartpoly polycarbonate incorporates differential light technology. When light is brighter outside the conservatory, a highly reflective surface is created which, rejects 80% of the suns solar energy whilst allowing high levels of natural light in. Looking from the outside in the appearance is solid. However, looking out from the inside, the roof is transparent. This is achieved by incorporating finely divided metals into the polyester laminate. At night the roof takes on a "solid" appearance which can be enhanced by up lighting to create a warmer more room like feel.
