For roofing and external cladding, fiberglass sheets from the Elyplast range by Brianza Plastica offer an excellent solution in terms of ease of installation, durability, and both chemical and mechanical resistance. Widely used in industrial and agricultural settings, Elyplast sheets and rolls are also the ideal choice for building carports, pergolas, tool sheds, garages, garden houses, and small greenhouses.

The translucent rolls are available in flat and corrugated profiles (76/18). The sheets come in opaque or translucent options, with various corrugated and trapezoidal profiles and sizes. The product is manufactured using a continuous lamination process reinforced with fiberglass, ensuring significantly better mechanical properties than other plastic products, using polyester resin.
The polyester resin is UV-stabilized, and the application of a special isophthalic resin outer layer—called a gelcoat—enhances the product's performance.
Examples of Corrugated and Trapezoidal Profiles
When planning your project, consider complementing your sheds or greenhouses with durable fiberglass panels for natural light diffusion.
ELYPLAST Range: Fiberglass Rolls and Sheets, Translucent and Opaque
Side Overlap: One Wave
Proper overlap is critical for weatherproofing. For larger structures like pergolas or gazebos, ensure the sheets are aligned correctly.
Side Overlap: Two Waves
For areas with heavy rain or snow, a two-wave overlap provides extra security, ideal for home improvement projects.
How to Install ELYPLAST Sheets
- Drilling always on a wave crest: This prevents leaks. Use a sharp drill bit for clean holes.
- Water won't enter with the gasket: Always use proper sealing washers. Check your garden supplies for compatible fasteners.
- Don't crush the wave with the screw: Over-tightening can crack the sheet. Snug is sufficient.
- Marking with a felt-tip pen: Easy to see and won't damage the gelcoat.
- Cutting with a metal-cutting disc: For clean edges, a fine-tooth blade or abrasive disc works best.
- Overlap of 2 waves on low slopes: Essential for preventing water ingress on flat or low-pitch roofs.
For outdoor living spaces, pair your new roof with outdoor patio furniture to create a comfortable, shaded retreat.
