Choose from ourtypes of Polycarbonate…
Did you know that polycarbonate has such a good fire rating that the fire service allows its use in most public spaces?
This is thanks to the material’s high temperature resistance. Unlike acrylic sheet, polycarbonate is resistant to fire and has a fire rating of B1, which means that the material will not burn with an open flame. Polycarbonate is self-extinguishing and fire retardant.
Unique material characteristics…
Another characteristic of this material is its ability to withstand bending without breaking, even without prior heating. Additionally, the sheets made from polycarbonate are 50% lighter than glass. These attributes render polycarbonate a superb option for a variety of applications, including burglar-proof glazing, bike sheds, lighting fixtures, ceiling panels, machine components, protective casings, bulkheads, technical apparatus, boat windows, and illuminated signage.
Clear
Polycarbonate is a clear, transparent plastic material with an extraordinarily high impact resistance. The transparent plastic is 250 times stronger than glass of the same thickness. This property means it can be put to great use as safety or protective glazing that needs to be vandal-proof, burglar-proof, impact-resistant or extra secure. We stock a huge range of options with thicknesses from 0.75mm to 20mm.
Tint
Polycarbonate is available in clear or mirror but also in bronze and grey tint. This product is ideal for use as boat windows, machine covers or interior partitions. When impact resistance and fire rating are crucial, but you need colour too, then the Polycarbonate tint is the material for you.
Diffuser
Polycarbonate light diffusers are highly impact-resistant, which makes them vandal-proof. This material has very consistent and has minimal variation to thickness and is fire-rated, so it can be used in public spaces.
Mirror Polycarbonate
Mirrored polycarbonate is an impact-resistant sheet with a reflective surface on one side. The mirror can be used for a large variety of applications. It creates a stylish look in shop windows, reduces heat and light penetration if used as glazing, and provides shade and privacy.
2 – way Mirror is also available.
