Overview:
One of the first roofing materials manufacturers to recognize the benefi ts of commercial daylighting, Carlisle SynTec now offers Drylight™ – a fully encapsulated skylight glazing system designed to provide premium energy savings for commercial buildings.

Why Daylighting?
Commercial daylighting saves building owners money, and provides numerous additional benefits:
  • Reduces operating costs by minimizing the use of electrical lighting
  • Reduces electrical loads during peak times, when utility rates may increase
  • Studies have shown that daylighting increases productivity in the workplace, improves learning in schools, and increases purchasing by 5-8% in retail stores.

Why Drylight?
Carlisle’s Drylight takes advantage of all daylighting benefits while avoiding the headaches associated with traditional multi-component skylights.
  • Fully encapsulated technology, new to the commercial skylight industry
  • Full encapsulation has been a proven technology in the auto and aeronautics industries for more than 20 years
  • Full encapsulation creates a watertight bond between the frame and dome
  • Components that expand and contract simultaneously, eliminating stress fractures
  • Superior thermal performance
  • Inclusion in Carlisle’s 10- and 20-year total system warranties
