Polycarbonate

Product Overview

Polycarbonate sheets are a naturally transparent amorphous thermoplastic that act as a tough glazing alternative. It is a very useful plastic and offers a combination of properties; strength, transparency, lightweight, flexibility, durability, thermal and fire resistance.

Polycarbonate plastic sheets are virtually as transparent as glass (80% LT Approx.), 200 times stronger than float glass and nearly half the weight. In addition to all of these features, polycarbonate sheets can be bent either hot or cold.

The resistance of the tough glazing alternative to breakage qualifies it as the best existing glazing thermoplastic material available, with impact resistance that is virtually impervious to hammer blows, stones, etc. Polycarbonate sheets are suitable for use in areas exposed to vandalism and constitutes a breakthrough in both design concept and construction methods.

Manufactured to comply with European standard specifications. The polycarbonate sheets have built-in UV Protection and UV Resistance. They have a co-extruded UV protective layer, while Polycarbonate UV2 offers co-extruded UV protective layer on both sides. This dramatically improves its durability and compliance with outdoor appliances.
