Polycarbonate Sheets (PC)

Yes. Polycarbonate sheets are suitable for outdoor applications such as roofing, skylights, canopies, walkways, greenhouses and sheds. They offer weather resistance and UV protection, making them suitable for outdoor environments.

GB PLAS polycarbonate sheets are designed with UV protection to improve weather resistance and help maintain their appearance when exposed to sunlight. For outdoor projects, it is still important to select the appropriate grade and configuration for the intended application.

Depending on the thickness and sheet type, polycarbonate can provide approximately 90–92% light transmission. This makes it suitable for applications such as skylights, canopies and greenhouse structures where natural light is desired.

Yes. Polycarbonate offers good fabrication flexibility and can be cut, formed and thermoformed for different applications. If your project requires a specific shape, dimension or fabrication requirement, it is best to discuss the specifications with GB PLAS before ordering.

Polycarbonate can be a practical alternative to glass when impact resistance, lighter weight and easier handling are important. However, the best material depends on the application’s requirements, including transparency, strength, insulation, installation and budget.

Yes. Polycarbonate sheets are commonly used for roofing, skylights, canopies and covered walkways. Solid/profile sheets and twin-wall hollow sheets offer different performance characteristics, so the appropriate option should be selected according to the roofing structure and insulation requirements.

Polycarbonate is generally easy to maintain. For outdoor applications, regular cleaning can help maintain its appearance and light transmission. The cleaning method should be appropriate for polycarbonate to avoid damaging the sheet surface.
