Pioneering Carbon-Neutral Rooflights: Featured in ‘The Times’

At Next Generation Rooflights we are redefining sustainable glazing with large-format, high-performance rooflights our carbon-conscious solutions, recently featured in ‘The Times’

Sustainable Construction

We recently featured in ‘The Times’ – Home & Garden, 26th July 2025, highlighting our role in sustainable construction at a specialist installation on Sheen Lane, London, which demonstrated how architectural vision and environmental responsibility were combined to stunning effect.

Massive Rooflights, Minimal Carbon Footprint

The project at Sheen Lane featured two very large, single-piece fixed rooflights — one measuring 6,021mm x 2,946mm, the other 4,689mm x 2,964mm — weighing 1,750kg and 1,550kg respectively. They were custom designed and built units that not only achieved a clean, minimal finish but also reflected our commitment to high-performance, carbon-aware design.

Engineered for Light, Comfort, and Compliance

Our focus on bespoke precision means we can offer environmental responsible:

Fixed, opening, and sliding rooflights
Configurations which can optimise for natural light, ventilation, and rooftop access
Bespoke designs that provide open feel and compliance with Part K building regulations

Our opening and sliding rooflights can (optionally) be electrically operated to further improve comfort by encouraging fresh airflow and enhancing indoor light quality.
