Lexan* Thermoclear* Solar Control IR

With new 5 Star Energy Ratings calling for optimal efficiency, architects are increasingly seeking to maximise natural light, whilst maintaining aesthetics and reducing lighting costs. Intensive use of glazing however, can result in excessive heat build-up, resulting in increased energy costs associated with cooling the building.

 GE Advanced Materials new Solar Control IR Sheet represents an entirely new technology in the challenge for energy efficiency. Proprietary resin additives are used to block near-infrared heat, whilst maintaining high light transmission levels. Studies have shown that this can result in energy savings of 25-40% in a temperature controlled environment!

Lexan* Solar Control IR sheeting is available in both the multiwall Thermoclear* range, or as monolithic sheeting. The sheeting is also available in green, blue or grey tints.

The new Direct Factory Outlets development at Essendon Airport, Melbourne has become the first building in Australia to use Solar Control IR Sheet. It incorporates approximately 550m² of blue Lexan* Thermoclear Solar Control IR sheet in 16mm 3X profile!

Lexan* Thermoclick

Imagine a completely translucent wall with no vertical glazing bars! Lexan* Thermoclick sheet systems are made up of 40mm, UV protected, multiwall sheet panels with a profiled tongue and groove connection. The inter-connecting system eliminates the need for vertical profiles, thereby saving costs and enhancing aesthetics! The X-Structure of the sheet provides exceptional stiffness and thermal insulation.

• Ideal for wall facades

• Easy installation

• Exceptional thermal insulation

• Superior stiffness and strength based on 40mm x-structure sheet

• Hammered Glass finish for excellent light diffusion

• 9 different colours available

Ampelite now stock Lexan Thermoclick in clear and opal colour. Other colours are available subject to order quantities. Please contact your nearest Ampelite office for further information.

Lexan* Thermopanel / Thermoroof

In addition to the extensive range of polyester sheeting and systems such as Dual Roof and Clearslide, Ampelite can supply a range of insulated multiwall panels that can be used in conjunction with metal sandwich panel sheeting. Lexan* Thermoroof and Thermopanel sheeting provides excellent thermal insulation, high stiffness and high light transmission for use in temperature controlled environments.

Lexan* Thermoclear Easy Clean 

This is the world’s first self-cleaning polycarbonate sheet! UV protected on both sides, Lexan* Thermoclear* Easy Clean sheet features a unique hydrophobic coating on the outside surface that reduces the surface tension of polycarbonate and increases the contact angle of water to the sheet. This causes larger droplets to form and wash away dirt, leaving the sheet almost spotless. Furthermore, it stays clean for longer, thereby reducing the frequency and the associated cost of cleaning.

Lexan* Thermoclear SunXP

In addition to the inherent properties of the Lexan* Thermoclear Plus range, Lexan* Thermoclear SunXP offers UV protection as standard on both sides, but with even higher resistance to UV radiation, yellowing and loss of light transmission. This represents a revolutionary development in the use of plastic sheeting in Australia’s harsh environment.

Lexan* Thermoclear Dripgard

This innovative product is suitable for any roof glazing application in which water droplets are unacceptable, such as commercial greenhouses or sensitive food preparation areas.

Lexan* Thermoclear Dripgard has UV protection on the outer surface and a specially developed hydrophilic coating on the inner surface. This coating reduces the formation of condensation droplets by increasing the surface tension of the sheet and decreasing the contact angle. As a consequence, a thin mist of water will form on the inner surface of the sheet, which will not drip and will not affect the excellent light transmission of the material.

Lexan* Thermoclear Hammered Glass

In this unique material, the addition of glass fibres into the sheet provides an original “hammered glass” effect. In addition to the innovative look, it provides UV protection on both sides, high light transmission and good insulation properties. Typical applications include interior partition walls, swimming pool enclosures and bathroom glazing.

Lexan* Thermoclear Venetian Screen Print

Lexan* Thermoclear Venetian sheets are UV-protected on the outer surface and screen-printed with stripes or a honeycomb pattern on the inner surface. The screen-printed sheet provides excellent aesthetics, together with a shadow effect. This helps to reduce heat build-up from solar radiation, resulting in an improved comfort level inside the structure or underneath the structure. 

For viable quantities, a custom screen-printed pattern can be applied to the sheet during manufacture. For smaller quantities, a standard clear or tinted sheet can be screen-printed locally. Please contact your nearest Ampelite office for details.
