Polycarbonate is half the weight of glass and virtually unbreakable; 200 times stronger than glass. It meets the most demanding machinery, automotive, safety, and construction applications. It is used extensively in skylights, walkways, flat or curved glazing (canopies), leisure, sports, and various architectural applications. Our Polycarbonate Sheet has UV protection on both sides.

3mm and 4mm Polycarbonate sheets suit cold curved applications such as half-barrel vault walkways, bike shelters, smoking shelters, and sports dugouts. Whilst it is possible to cold curve thicker sheets, the sheets become increasingly more rigid as you go through the different thickness gauges.

For roofing, the thickness required can vary depending on the project's specific requirements, including factors such as the size of the roof, the location, and the intended use of the building. However, in general, solid polycarbonate sheets for roofing applications are typically available in thicknesses ranging from 6mm. Thicker sheets are generally recommended for larger roof spans or additional strength and rigidity.
