The EEFAS System offers excellent thermal insulation properties and is designed to conform to the Building Code of Australia (BCA), National Construction Code Series for Class 2 to Class 9 Buildings especially and including Section J, Energy Efficiency. The Ampelite EEFAS System is manufactured to order being constructed with high quality components designed to completely integrate with the main roofing insulated panels. Exceptional spanning together with the thermal conformities allows designers to achieve natural daylight within any project. The Ampelite EEFAS system provides real thermal advantages as well as natural daylight complimenting the aesthetically pleasing, energy efficient, safe, cost effective and sustainable answers insulated panels provide.

This project involved the construction of a new brewery located within the former Valley Mills site in Geelong. Building works included a full upgrade of the sawtooth wall lights (skylights) with Wonderglas GC as well as installation of $45 million of brewing equipment. The choice of Wonderglas GC offered both 99.9% U.V reduction, paramount to maintaining beer freshness, combined with an exceptional light transmission guarantee. The fit-out included structural modifications, services upgrades and construction of new plant spaces. Works were completed over a twelve month duration with an extremely high level of services coordination and design using BIM.

Industrial Fibreglass is Ampelite's entry level commercial and industrial skylight, and is used extensively to allow naturally diffused daylight into a wide range of applications from warehouses to DIY projects. Available in all current and superseded metal profiles in standard Ice-clear and Opal tints. In Australia's harsh climate it is important to choose a product that blocks 99.9% of UV. All Ampelite products do just that, so you can rest assured your skin or delicate materials will not suffer or degrade.

The building is spread over two-levels of 12,000m2, with a form that expresses the progressive nature of the construction industry. Lexan Thermoclick completely covers the Southern, Eastern and Western facades including the truck size horizontal bi-fold doors. The skylights are also Ampelite Thermal Skylight which contributes notably to the abundance of natural light. The design provides a loose-fit long-life shell that responds to and caters for changing course programmes by maximising flexible spaces and incorporating innovative and sustainable materials. The building was awarded a 6 Star Green Star rating due to its embedded sustainability measures including optimised day lighting through highly insulated facades; a mix of passive and active ventilation; and temperature control systems.

Energy efficiency takes precedence, with Netball Central being illuminated by daylight via a pattern of Ampelite skylights and wall cladding that enable training to occur without requiring artificial lighting during the day. In addition, the combination of angled blade walls and Lexan light-diffusing materials assist in preventing the glare of direct sunlight interfering with play. Importantly, passive heating and cooling principles of the natural ventilation and thermal labyrinth have been incorporated within the building striving for comfortable conditions year round without supplementation of artificial energy.

This 3660 gsm sheeting has heavy gauge woven web matting which provides continuous reinforcement in every direction. The overall strength is such, that wire safety mesh is not required. This is a particularly important benefit in aggressive and corrosive environments that can quickly destroy metal. Where corrosion resistance is vital, complete buildings may be clad and roofed with WebglasGC which can be manufactured 100% coloured opaque, or translucent to transmit natural light. For extreme environments, where high levels of acids or alkalies may occur, Webglas GC+ which incorporates chemically resistant resins, will provide additional protection. Webglas GC is totally corrosion resistant, it cannot rust and is impervious to water, vapours and gases.
