Polycarbonate Roof Sheeting Installation
Polycarbonate’s versatility allows it to be used extensively as a roof sheeting material. The many Polycarb roof sheeting benefits include:
- High-impact resistance
- Translucency that allows for easy light transmission
- Good fire-resistance rating
Polycarbonate sheeting is a durable product and a practical roofing solution. Its translucent light transmission qualities make Polycarbonate sheeting ideal for use in outdoor areas such as conservatories, decks, patios and terraces.
What is Polycarbonate?
Polycarbonate is a lightweight thermoplastic material, possessing a unique balance of dimensional stability, high heat resistance, electrical resistance, optical clarity and toughness. Typical uses for Polycarbonate in the building industry include skylights and windows, roof domes and wall panels. Manufactured to withstand extreme weather conditions, from intense cold to high heat, Polycarbonate sheeting is perfect for outdoor use. Because Polycarbonate sheeting is heat resistant, its thermoplastic qualities provide quality shade.
Multiwall Polycarbonate is widely used because it is virtually indestructible.
Compared to glass, it provides up to 60% more thermal insulation. This may be a lightweight product, but Multiwall Polycarbonate is incredibly strong and durable, making it ideal for use in outdoor structures.
Multiwall polycarbonate is available in a variety of colours and tints. The sheeting is transparent or opaque and is tougher than glass or fibreglass. Polycarbonate sheeting is manufactured to tolerate temperatures see-sawing from -40C to +120C.
Another huge advantage of Multiwall Polycarbonate sheeting is that it is extremely lightweight, weighing only 16% of the weight of glass and 34% of the weight of acrylic sheets. This makes them easy to transport and to install.
