Eurocell The Future Of Roof Lanterns Has Arrived With ICONIQ
Home improvement specialists, Eurocell, has brought to the market a premium aluminium roof lantern that is a complete game changer for how fast and easy it is to fit on a flat roof - with size options spanning larger than any other roof lantern in UK home improvements.
Iconiq from Eurocell sets a new standard for roof lantern installation with its cutting-edge, patent-pending, Q-lok system. Designed with installers in mind, the innovative horse-shoe locking mechanism allows the lantern’s frame to be effortlessly pushed together - with fewer fixings and no drilling, just a quick and secure push-and-fit assembly through simple slide and lock connections in a matter of moments.
The entire installation process takes under an hour, making it faster and simpler than every other lantern in the market.
Sean Bunyan, Roof Lantern Specialist at Eurocell, believes Iconiq is the future of roof lanterns in the UK. He said; “Iconiq is something special. We know the demand for aluminium roof lanterns continues to grow and adding Iconiq to our offering means customers now have a complete choice to finish flat roof extensions and garden rooms in style.
“But it was key to us to bring to the market a premium aluminium roof lantern that is going to help fabricators and installers grow their share of their markets beyond what they can achieve with what’s already out there. That’s what has fueled the innovation behind Iconiq. It offers a new innovative installation method that really speeds up time on site with its simple push-and-fit mechanism, increasing the capacity of projects the trade can deliver.
“Alongside this, there’s a huge range of size options, going from 1.75m by 1.75m and over 4m by 8m, making it the largest roof lantern currently available on the market.”
With an innovative GRP (glass-reinforced plastic) Eaves beam, it creates an insulating barrier to protect against heat loss - making it the most thermally-efficient lantern on the market. The GRP ring beam is also the strongest of any roof lantern to date, giving it unmatched strength to weight ratio. Bespoke glazing clips secure the glass firmly in place, with an anti-tamper edge frame too, ensuring safety and security.
