Commercial rooflights for natural daylight, ventilation & access

Rooflights, polycarbonate domes, glass roof systems and bespoke structural glazing to suit any commercial application.

With a vast range of solutions for new-build and refurbishment projects, the commercial rooflights and glass roof systems range from VELUX Commercial offers ultimate flexibility for natural daylight and ventilation, smoke and heat exhaust ventilation and maintenance access.

As an architectural feature, commercial rooflights can be beautiful additions to buildings such as offices, schools and public access buildings.

Their purpose goes far beyond being visually appealing focal points. Commercial rooflights are versatile and functional elements that can provide enormous benefits to the building and it’s occupants. Commercial rooflights offer:

  • Natural daylight - Increasing the amount of natural light in a building can cut energy costs and contribute to a more environmentally friendly building. It can also benefit building occupants and studies have shown that better daylight conditions can increase productivity, satisfaction and performance among workers for example.

  • Natural ventilation for comfort - Rooflights can be fitted with natural ventilation systems that provide fresh air to improve the indoor climate to improve the comfort and health of occupants.

  • Smoke ventilation - Commercial rooflights can also act as natural smoke and heat exhaust ventilation (SHEV) systems in the case of a fire.

  • Roof access - Commercial flat roof rooflights, such as polycarbonate domes can provide discreet access to a building rooftop for maintenance purposes. Flat glass units, larger rooflight systems and structural glazing can be used for regular access to communal roof terraces.

  • Fall-through protection - These systems can be installed to help increase safety and reduce risks for people who need to access the rooftop for maintenance purposes.

Commercial rooflight solutions

VELUX Commercial offer a wide range of rooflight systems, providing solutions for both refurbishment and new-build projects, and every type of commercial building; from warehouses and manufacturing facilities to prestigious offices and high-end shopping centres.

Industrial rooflights

Whether your project demands standardised polycarbonate dome rooflights for an existing industrial flat roof, access hatches for maintenance of a roof top or large lightweight expanses for flooding warehousing with light, VELUX Commercial has a solution.

Our single-unit systems are cost effective and ideal for adding further ventilation and provided roof access, while also providing natural light.

For industrial applications where large natural light is required our continuous rooflight range is ideal.

High specification and bespoke rooflights

In higher specification projects, our glass rooflights and glazed roof systems are more suitable. Options include VELUX Modular Skylights which combine building performance design flexibility with the convenience and simplicity of a prefabricated system.

Bespoke rooflights

VELUX Glazing Panels can be tailored to suit bespoke requirements and are often used on mono-pitched roofs and to create features such as ridge rooflights and pyramid rooflights.

Structural Glazing products provide the ultimate in terms of customisation, with a fully made-to-measure approach.

VELUX Commercial has a team of technical specialists offering advice and guidance throughout the build process, and after sales support for once the building is in use. Whatever the building type, roof configuration or performance requirement, our breadth of quality solutions, coupled with our technical expertise will help you deliver a sustainable and long lasting commercial rooflight for your project.
