Project Overview
A large industrial warehouse complex in Jiangsu required an energy-efficient roofing solution for its 12,000 square meter facility. The client needed a roofing system that provided excellent natural lighting, thermal insulation, and durability. Jietai supplied hollow polycarbonate sheets as the primary roofing material for this major logistics center.
The Challenge
The warehouse required large spans of roofing with minimal structural supports to maximize storage space. The material needed to support heavy snow loads in winter while providing insulation to maintain stable temperatures for stored goods. Insufficient natural lighting would require continuous artificial lighting, significantly increasing operating costs. The solution had to be installed quickly to meet the construction deadline.
Our Solution
Jietai supplied 16mm five-layer hollow polycarbonate sheets in opal white for the 4,500 square meter roof area. The multi-wall structure provides excellent thermal insulation (U-value of 2.1 W/m²K), reducing heat loss by 40% compared to single-layer roofing. The opal white finish diffuses natural light evenly, eliminating hotspots while maintaining 55% light transmission. Pre-cut panels with aluminum profiles were delivered in batches for rapid on-site assembly.
Results
The completed warehouse roof provides uniform daylight illumination across the entire floor space, reducing artificial lighting requirements by 70%. Temperature monitoring shows stable internal conditions year-round, with summer temperatures averaging 5°C lower than external ambient. The project was completed two weeks ahead of schedule due to the ease of installation and pre-fabricated components.
