Velux roof windows are made using a unique technology, which provides double protection for your home. Outside the window - tempered glass, so strong that it will not break either from strong hail, or from falling branches and stones, will withstand the loads from snow, which only the roof can do. From the inside of the window - laminated glass "triplex", consisting of two glasses connected by a layer of PVB film. Thanks to this film, the glass will not shatter into fragments, even when it breaks, it will protect your interior and furniture from excessive UV radiation and will increase the sound insulation properties of the window by 10%. According to the European standard EN 12600, laminated glass has passed a test procedure, as a result of which fragments of broken glass did not fall off when a load weighing 50 kg fell on it four times from heights of 190, 450 and 1200 mm.
