ELYSOL: THE NEW POLYCARBONATE SHEET

Product catalog summary
Introduction
Elysol is a versatile, lightweight, and transparent polycarbonate sheet designed for natural lighting in various installations such as roofs and curtain walls. It is easy to apply and suitable for multiple uses including terraces, gardens, greenhouses, canopies, and walkways.

Specifications
Elysol sheets are UV-protected on one or both sides, lightweight, resilient, and weather-resistant. They offer good fire performance and excellent light transmission. Available in corrugated or ribbed profiles, these sheets are not designed to be walked on.

Installation Procedures
  • Choose screws based on the structure material and drill holes 3 mm larger than the screw diameter to allow for thermal expansion.
  • For cutting, measure the structure and transfer measurements to the sheets. Use a false square for non-90° angles.
  • Mark cuts accurately by placing a full sheet on top to trace the cutting line.
  • Use an angle grinder with a thin metal disc or diamond-coated discs for cutting, ensuring clean and smooth edges.

Roofing Installation
  • Drill holes on the top rib or corrugation, ensuring they are 3 mm wider than the screw.
  • Position sheets starting from the leeward side with a lateral overlap of one rib or corrugation.
  • Ensure a minimum end overlap of 15 cm for each horizontal row.

Curtain Wall Installation
  • Inclined cuts should accommodate the roof slope, measured with a false square.
  • For corrugated sheets, position the corrugation towards the inside.
  • Drill holes 3 mm larger than the screw diameter, ensuring alignment at overlapping points.
  • Use shorter screws for inverted installations where the sheet corrugation contacts the wall structure.

Recommendations
Ensure sheets protrude by 20 cm along the lower edge of the pitch, and allow one rib or corrugation to protrude for side overhangs. Always fix sheets at the rib or corrugation for stability.

TRANSPARENT AND RESISTANT Elysol compact polycarbonate straight sheets are UV-protected on one or two sides sides, lightweight, highly resilient, versatile, with an excellent weather resistance; they have both a good fire performance and an exceptional capacity to transmit light. They are available in corrugated or ribbed profile. Corrugated ELYSOL sheet 1 Choose the screws according to the material of the structure and, to correctly fix the sheets, drill a hole 3 mm larger in diameter than the screw, in order to compensate the thermal expansion of the sheet. 2 To cut the sheet, take the measurements...

ELYSOL: THE NEW POLYCARBONATE SHEET-3

THE LARGE SIZE OF THE HOLE IS FUNDAMENTAL 1 ELYSOL FOR ROOFING Lightweight and easy to handle, Elysol can also be easily installed on lightweight structures, even in case of large roof surfaces. It is recommended that the sheets protrude by 20 cm along the lower edge of the pitch; if you also want an overhang on the sides, allow one rib or corrugation to protrude. 1 For the first row of sheets, holes can be drilled even before laying the sheets; this is quicker, but it is important to have taken the exact measurement from the free edge of the sheet to the first fastening batten, at the centre...

ELYSOL: THE NEW POLYCARBONATE SHEET-4

ALWAYS MAKE A HOLE AND FIX IN CORRESPONDENCE OF A RIB OR CORRUGATION 1 ELYSOL IN CURTAIN WALLS 1 To accommodate the slope of the roof, inclined cuts must be made; measure the exact inclination with the false square and mark it on the sheet correctly. 2 On the wall, the fixing procedure does not change, except for the fact that, if the sheets are corrugated, the corrugation must be positioned towards the inside. The screws must still be applied in correspondence of the corrugation or of the rib. 3 The holes (3 mm larger than the diameter of the screw) must be drilled with the sheets positioned...
