Helping to make your conservatory
an everyday room
A room for every day
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
SmartPoly, with its integral solar protection, prevents up to 80% of the sun’s solar energy from entering
the conservatory through the roof, helping to maintain a comfortable internal temperature. The roof will
also reduce glare by 80%, further increasing comfort levels in the conservatory. In winter, most of the
heat lost escapes through the roof; with a SmartPoly roof, a large proportion of rising heat is radiated
back into the room, helping to maintain comfortable temperatures and reducing heating costs.
Zero maintenance
SmartPoly 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
SmartPoly combines strength and durability with excellent thermal insulation, while the high impact
resistance of the material ensures long life. An integral ultraviolet light filter prevents the polycarbonate
from yellowing with age and maintains optical clarity. The micro-thin polyester solar protector is highly
reflective but allows natural light to penetrate, so the conservatory remains bright and airy.

Create a new look
With two colour combinations and four colour choices,
SmartPoly provides options to create your own
ambience. Choose standard silver for maximum
light penetration into the conservatory. add a blue
or green tint to your roof or select gold for maximum heat and glare rejection. Whatever your choice,
SmartPoly will capture generated light at night to provide feelings of greater comfort in addition to
providing effective solar control and lower energy costs.
Advanced technology
Unlike traditional methods of climate control which try to dissipate heat once it has built up
within the conservatory - SmartPoly reflects the
sun’s heat, preventing heat gain from becoming a
problem. The integral solar shield uses advanced,
ultra-clear micro-thin metalised polyester exclusively
manufactured by Tec-Sun, Europe’s largest supplier
of solar inserts fro polycarbonate. Tried and tested
throughout the UK, SmartPoly brings new levels of
comfort and energy efficiency to your conservatory
- so you can use it every day.
