Packing
Standard Packing
Kingspan Polycarb Rooights are stacked in-
terleaved (to minimise pack height). The top,
bottom, sides and ends are protected with
foam and timber packing and the entire pack
is wrapped in plastic. Spacers are provided
loose in packs, typical maximum pack height
is 1100 mm.
Delivery
Road Freight
All deliveries (unless indicated otherwise) are
by road transport to project site. Unloading
is the responsibility of the customer.
Sea Freight
Fully timber crated packs are available on
projects requiring delivery by sea freight
shipping, at additional cost. Alternatively,

All fasteners, seals and llers to be of correct
specication and installed as indicated in the
Kingspan Polycarb Rooight Installation
Guide.
Fasteners to be checked and adjusted if nec-
essary to ensure they are weather tight and
external rooight facing is not distorted.
Safety
The contractor is to determine and use a safe system
of working throughout the installation and construction
period which complies with the HSA or HSE and CDM
requirements. Crawling boards should be used when
xing rooights.
NOTE
In the interest of safety, you should never walk
on a rooight no matter what grade or construction
it may be.

and the entire palette is wraped in plastic.
The number of panels in each pack depends
on panel thickness and length.The table
below is shown as a guide. Quantities are
reduced for exceptionahy long panels.
Typical palette height is 1,100 mm.
Delivery
All deliveries (unless indicated otherwise)
are by road transport to project site.
Off loading is the responsibility of the client.

Introduction
The Kingspan Wall-Lite is a translucent wall
panel that allows natural daylight into buildings,
whilst maintaining thermal efciency and aesthetic
appearance.
This can help to lower both energy bills and CO
2
emissions, whilst allowing occupants to enjoy
high levels of daylight. The system is suitable for
use as an alternative to traditional vertical daylight-
ing systems and need not restrict design options
as it integrates fully, with Kingspans range of
Architectural Wall panels, Kingspan Optimo
TM
,
and Kingspans range of complete wall and
faade systems including the Thermabrick
TM
,
Thermastone and Thermatile systems.
The Kingspan Wall-Lite is UV resistant,
lightweight and offers a U-value of 1.26 W/m
2
K
offering designers and installers choice of freedom
to create energy efcient buildings of distinction.

Standard Packing
KS1000 WL panels are packed in the stacks
on wooden pallets. The top, bottom, sides
and ends are protected with polystyrene
spacers and the whole package is wrapped
with foil.
Delivery
Road Freight
All deliveries (unless indicated otherwise) are
by road transport to project site. Unloading
is the responsibility of the customer.
Installation
Installation instructions are available in Kingspan
Technical Department. We also provide, on request,
trainings for contractors.
Colour Range
Kingspan Wall-Lite is available in a range of colours to give designers choice and freedom.
Safety
The maximum spacing of supports for WL
panels installed as a single band highlight is 6 m.
Maximum spacing for WL panels installed
in series is 3 m.
BUILDING REGULATIONS
KS1000 WL panels meet the requirements
of national building standards
and regulations.
Infra-red (IR) Absorbing Lights
This range of Kingspan Wall-Lites absorb
greater levels of infra-red light which
reduces solar gain. These can allow for
greater control of ambient temperature
within the building providing a possible
reduction in HVAC usage.
