Looking for a smart way to brighten dark indoor spaces with natural light? Meet the Intura SunTube – a high-performance tubular skylight, also known as a sun tunnel, sunpipe, or solartube.

What is a tubular skylight (or sunpipe)?
A tubular skylight, also known as a sunpipe, suntunnel, solatube, lightpipe or light tube, is an innovative way to bring daylight into windowless rooms using a rooftop dome and reflective tube. With only a small roof opening required, it’s ideal for hallways, bathrooms, closets, stairwells, or any space lacking natural light.
Thanks to its highly reflective rigid aluminium mirror tubing, the Intura SunTube delivers more light than traditional roof domes or skylights. The crystal glass dome stays exceptionally clean and clear, repelling algae, dirt, and resisting UV damage (unlike many plastic domes, which degrade and discolour due to UV exposure in a matter of less than 5 years in some cases!)
