Applications
Eight areas we sheet every week — with the grade, thickness and construction each one actually needs.
Most buyers arrive with an application rather than a grade. These pages work backwards from the job — what fails in service, what thickness is actually needed, and which material is the honest choice.
If your application is not listed, describe it in an enquiry. We have been extruding polycarbonate for long enough to have seen most of the ways it gets specified wrongly.
Outdoor and structural
- Roofing & daylighting — roof lights, canopies and covered walkways.
- Carports & canopies — vehicle shelters, bus stops and entrance canopies.
- Greenhouses — horticultural glazing that holds heat and survives hail.
- Curtain walls & facades — architectural glazing and rainscreen infill.
Industrial and technical
- Machine guarding — guards and viewing windows rated for impact and fire.
- Energy storage insulation — battery module barriers and electrical insulation.
Retail, signage and interiors
- Lighting & signage — diffusers, lightbox faces and illuminated fascias.
- Interior partitions — screens, dividers and decorative glazing.
