34 MAY 2016 PRO INSTALLER FIT SHOW 2016 FLAT ROOF TREND BENEFITS ATLAS The ten-strong team at Atlas Glazed Roof Solutions picked up hundreds of enquiries for the industry’s slimmest glazed roof at the FIT Show. »»Atlas proved it could compete with the bigger players in the industry as crowds gathered to see its range of conservatory roofs, lanterns, rooflights and contemporary mock orangeries. Visitors saw the recently extended range of contemporary lanterns and a full sized Skyroom – the most realistic contemporary mock orangery on show at FIT. With its dummy ring beam and sleek high aluminium external cornice to create the appearance of a real orangery, the Skyroom wowed visitors, many of whom thought it was a genuine orangery. The real draw to the stand was the new Atlas flat roof light, which brings ultimate performance and maximum light in a sleek, minimalistic design. The competitively priced new product has been developed to satisfy a growing trend for flat roof products. Seven orders were placed within hours of the show opening. As demand for larger contemporary style lanterns has risen sharply in recent months, it was no surprise that the ultra-slim range of four-pane contemporary lanterns also attracted lots of attention. The collection, which features the hallmark internal and external aesthetics of an Atlas roof, is now available in sizes up to 3000 x 1500mm. Delivering ‘more sky, 25% less roof’, this is a fully aluminium, thermally broken system. The Atlas Contemporary Lantern features a 60% slimmer ridge and 38% slimmer hip internally and an external ridge and hip, which is more than 50% slimmer than its rivals.
