Sunlight radiating through a transparent conservatory roof emits harmful UV rays which can fade furniture, ornaments and flooring causing permanent damage not to mention often making it impossible to read or watch TV. Our none translucent, insulated conservatory roof panels help prevent the fading of contents as harmful rays will no longer be able to radiate through the roof and the room will become much more comfortable to use.

As Thermotec is a bespoke, precision product it can be made to fit any size or shape of existing roof structure; we meticulously survey your roof to ensure each and every panel is a precise fit.

Oak, anthracite or light grey are all popular choices and you can even select from a matte or gloss finish and introduce partial glazing if some natural roof light is a requirement.
