Overview
Dynaglas offers high durability, high light transmission and weather resistance. It is ideal for greenhouse coverings and skylight applications. Professionals favor Dynaglas for noncorrosive industrial structural roofing and siding (cladding), while homeowners favored Dynaglas for a multitude of DIY projects. Dynaglas is available in a wide variety of colors and profiles,

Light Transmission Characteristics
DynaGlas offers the same sparkling clarity as glass. But because DynaGlas requires no shade casting glazing system, DynaGlas transmits as much as 7% more light than glass. DynaGlas Plus SolarSoft 85™ offers high light transmission (85%), but also offers 100% light diffusion, helping to spread light throughout the greenhouse and reduce shadows.

| Visual Defects (inclusions, bubbles, black specks, gel, etc.) | If defect is not visible by inspection from a distance of 1 meter, it is not considered to be a defect. Surface abrasion may occur in transit. This is not considered a defect as DynaGlas is not intended for “architectural optical clarity” applications. This type of abrasion will not affect durability. |
