CO-EX BDL panel system is highly versatile and suitable for a wide range of daylighting applications such as:
• SKYLIGHTS • WALKWAYS
• CANOPIES • WALLSYSTEMS
• INTERIORSYSTEMS
The CO-EX BDL polycarbonate panel offers many advantages when com-pared with other glazing alternatives. HIGHIMPACTRESISTANCE – 200 times greater than glass
LIGHTWEIGHT – less than 1 lb. per sq. ft.
TRANSLUCENT – controlled natural daylight
DOUBLESIDEDU.V.PROTECTION – either side may be exposed to the weather
FLAMESPREAD/SMOKEDEVELOPMENT – excellent behavioral properties
EASYTOINSTALL – complete system and accessories
SAVESENERGY – excellent thermal properties
HIGHLYFLEXIBLE – cold forms to a 11' radius, heat formed even tighter
•WideRangeofColors
• NoAdhesivesRequired
• CleanAestheticsCreated by Snap Covers
• ThermalMovementis Captured Internally within the System
• Uniquepanel construction
• SuperiorLightDiffusing Properties
• HighU.V.Resistance on Both Side
