Modern uPVC profiles are UV-stabilised and should stay white with normal cleaning. Very old lanterns, especially with polycarbonate panels, are the ones that discolour.
Is uPVC heavier?
Weight is dominated by the glass, so the difference is small.

With the midsummer sun about 62.0° high at noon, roof glass in Chippenham gets strong summer sun. Solar control is recommended for large or south-facing lanterns.
