Description

Polycarbonate Sheet

Polycarbonate is a virtually unbreakable, high-impact plastic known for its strength, clarity, and versatility. It is significantly stronger than acrylic and glass, while still being lightweight and easy to fabricate. Polycarbonate sheets are UV-resistant (in outdoor-rated grades), flame retardant, and highly durable, making them an excellent choice for safety glazing, protective barriers, and structural applications in demanding environments.
