Acrolite
Acrolite refers to a brand name of corrugated acrylic roofing and wall panels. These panels are known for their translucence, allowing natural light to pass through, and their durability, making them suitable for a variety of applications. Common uses include greenhouses, patios, carports, skylights, and industrial buildings. Acrolite panels are typically lightweight and easy to install, contributing to their popularity in both residential and commercial construction. While the term "acrolite" specifically refers to the brand, it is sometimes used generically to describe similar corrugated acrylic panels regardless of the manufacturer. The panels are often chosen for their resistance to impact, weathering, and UV degradation, contributing to a long lifespan. The manufacturing process may include adding UV inhibitors to enhance resistance to sunlight and prevent yellowing or cracking over time.
