VELUX has launched a new mid-range glass rooflight, the VELUX Standard, designed to bridge the gap between plastic domes and premium glass options for flat roof projects. This new product is suited for residential renovations, extensions, and public buildings where premium glass is not necessary.
The VELUX Standard glass rooflight is built for the middle of the market, offering a realistic glass option at a lower price point than premium glass. It comes with the same fit-and-finish expectations as other VELUX products, making it a viable recommendation for installers.
Previously, VELUX offered two rooflight options for flat roofs: plastic domes and high-performing premium glass. The new Standard glass rooflight fills the gap between these two options, providing an upgrade over plastic domes without the high cost of premium glass.
The VELUX Standard glass rooflight does not have a kerb, reducing the work required around the opening and allowing for cleaner and faster installations. This can result in significant time savings, especially for larger projects.
Compared to plastic domes, the new Standard glass rooflight offers improved thermal performance and sound reduction. While it is not premium glass, it provides a noticeable upgrade that homeowners will appreciate.

The VELUX Standard glass rooflight is compatible with the VELUX blind range, allowing installers to offer a complete solution that includes blinds. This can be a major selling point, as homeowners who opt for glass rooflights are often interested in adding blinds as well.
With the launch of the VELUX Standard glass rooflight, installers now have a new option to offer homeowners who want to upgrade from plastic domes without breaking the bank. They can find full specifications and installation information on the VELUX website.
It is clear that the VELUX Standard glass rooflight is a significant addition to the market, providing a mid-range option that balances quality and affordability. The company’s decision to launch this product reflects their commitment to providing a range of solutions for different types of projects.
This can help to increase customer satisfaction and loyalty, as well as provide a competitive advantage for installers who offer this solution.
