competition? Choose Global from Synseal. Backed by 30 years of
manufacturing experience and a company that delivers first class

The UK’s No 1 best selling conservatory roof system
We took the No 1 position in 2005 and have been there ever since! The roof has been designed to be easy to fabricate, easy to fit and easy to sell. That’s what makes the Synseal conservatory roof the obvious choice in your market.
Wind speed resistance
> 250 kph
Designed without compromise
Using state-of-the-art design software, each Global roof system is designed to take conservatories to the next level and are only limited by the homeowner’s imagination.
Every element of the Global roof system has been exhaustively tested by Synseal and has been passed by the British Board of Agrément (BBA).
To be sure it can stand up to the most extreme weather conditions, we put it, our standard roof forward for independent tests and the results far exceeded expectations.
Insulated box gutter
Our unique box gutter is twin skinned and insulated to cut condensation.
A special fixing plate means, unlike other roofs, no holes are drilled in the gutter - so no leaks and its large 205mm wide design also helps it to cope with extreme rain water demands. The double skin construction also increases strength and reduces sound pollution through the gutter.
Snow load capability
> 2.7m
Construction industryBBA
accreditationHigh strength rafters Our rafter bars are designed for increased loads so you don’t have to compromise on design or weather performance.
Aluminium top caps
Our woodgrain and painted top cappings are made from aluminium so will not warp or distort under extreme heat or split under extreme cold.
Tie bolt
Our precision engineered security locking bolt eradicates movement between the bolt and rafter, to give a strong and rigid anti-slip joint connection.
Single fixing bolt
We don’t think it’s a good idea to drill holes in something that should be watertight. The unique single fixing bolts are fastened internally for easy and quicker installation. We do not penetrate the main aluminium rafter so there are no fixing holes for water to ingress through.
Low level gasket system No one wants to look at their conservatory roof and see thick black gaskets around every glazing bar.
That’s why we have designed our roof with concealed gaskets.
Variable valley
The valley is designed to suit varying pitches and angles and is cloaked internally and externally to give an attractive aesthetic finish.
Perfect lead flashing The starter bar is designed to leave a perfect lead flashing line seamlessly connecting the house and conservatory. The lead dresses into a built-in soaker forming a watertight seal and no lead needs to be dressed over the top cap, therefore preventing any unsightly lead lines or staining.
End caps
Our end caps have a shoulder around the visible face for a more attractive appearance and have been designed with built-in drainage to relieve any trapped water.
The benefits of Global roof
Coloured roofs to suit every home style
We offer conservatory roofs in traditional woodgrain and painted effect foils in a wide range of colours to complement your customer’s home.
A world of possibilities
With the added option to powder- coat the aluminium roof with any RAL colour – so your customers have a world of colour options open to them.
All foils are available on both inside and outside of the conservatory, or to complement the style of your home, combinations of these colours on white are also available.

Available in sizes up to 6.5m wide.

A style that maximises floor space.
Available in sizes up to 6.3m wide.
P-shaped
A combination shaped roof usually constructed from a lean-to section at the side of a Victorian/
Edwardian shaped roof. This creates a versatile living space.
Gable
Gable Ended roofs are a variant of the Edwardian style roof and consist of duo-pitched sides with a flat faced frontage. These can include the use of a decorative designed gable frame.
A style for every customer’s home
Your individual customer’s house and tastes will differ, so at Synseal we can design a conservatory roof, which will suit their home perfectly.
T-shaped Another combination roof style. Our T-shaped conservatories are aesthetically balanced and create a versatile living space.
Custom
Our conservatory roofs are bespoke manufactured, so whatever your customer may have in mind, our technical and design teams can help you evaluate design options and find the best possible solution.
Lean-to
A conservatory with a mono pitched roof. The pitch of the roof can be varied making it a versatile option. We can even cope with pitches as low as 2.5 degrees.
Lantern
Distinguished by two tiered roofs, the Lantern design adds light, height, space and grandeur.
Sizes
The Global conservatory roof system is capable of wide spans due to its robust design. Alternatively, our SkySpace portal frame solutions enable bespoke designs with sizeable, wider spanning structures to be constructed.
Polycarbonate
Polycarbonate is a light weight insulating glazing material
manufactured from damage resistant material. Added protection provides resistance against the effects of UV weathering.
The Synseal computer systems calculate the exact size of the polycarbonate you require, therefore ensuring there are no errors at the fitting stage and your polycarbonate will be delivered at the same time as your roof. Polycarbonate is available in a range of styles to suit all customers and in 25mm or 35mm.
Glazing options
Glass
Nowadays nearly half of all new conservatories are fitted with a glass roof. Synseal’s wide range of roof glass options at competitive prices make it easy for you to order glass at the same time as the roof kit. One order, one invoice and we make sure the glass sizes are correct, so no waiting for glass sizes or mis-measures.
We offer the following glass options:
• Clear
• Low e-Clear
• Low e-Bronze
• Low-e Neutral Solar Control
• Low-e Blue Solar Control

Global finial & Global cresting
The finishing touch
Finials and Crestings
One of the most visually striking aspects of the
conservatory are the finials and crestings. The interlocking PVC-U sections of the crestings incorporate an interlock that ensures once connected they remain in a perfect line.
There are decorative finial designs to suit every home and these are available in suited colours.
Self-Cleaning Glass
Our range of self-cleaning and solar control glasses are the perfect choice for customers looking for the ultimate in glass solutions.
How self-cleaning glass works:
• Actively breaks down organic dirt
• Water sheets across its surface to wash dirt away
• Clear vision even when it’s raining
• Dirty water droplet marks are all but eliminated
• No need to re-apply the self-cleaning coating
Every glass unit incorporates true, dual action self-cleaning glass, which breaks down dirt and washes it away as illustrated in the diagrams shown above. Since the water does not form into droplets on its surface, this means that you can see clearly out of your windows even when it is raining.
Additionally, when the water evaporates it doesn’t leave behind the usual dirty water droplet marks.
The result is that windows stay cleaner for longer!
The self-cleaning coating is also applied as the glass is actually being manufactured. This means that it is fused into the surface and therefore lasts the lifetime of the pane of glass, unlike the spray on
‘easy-clean’ coatings which wear off after a period of time and need to be re-applied.

Our SkySpace portal frame
department is experienced at creating extremely large glazed structures for a variety of residential and commercial applications. Able to project manage from initial concept to finished structure, SkySpace can help realise your vision - whatever the size!
