Benefits:

  • Translucent, polycarbonate canopies avoid problems inherent in metal canopies:
    • A dark and unpleasant industrial appearance.
    • A “closed-in” feeling.
    • Constant maintenance requirements.
  • When a metal canopy is next to a building, it darkens adjacent windows or doorways. CPI Daylighting’s translucent canopy designs let the light in. The canopies and walkway systems are attractive and affordable alternatives to the high cost and safety concerns associated with glass, acrylic and fiberglass canopy systems.
  • Increase the facility’s property value.
  • Healthy, natural daylight in the space with soft translucent light and accurate color rendition.
  • No required maintenance or re-coating costs—individual exterior panels  are easily replaced.
  • In retail environments, increased daylighting has been shown to increase sales by as much as 40%.
