Polycarbonate sheets are a go-to material for modern construction and interior projects due to their durability, transparency, and weather resistance. But with different types like Embossed, Corrugated, and Solid polycarbonate sheets available, choosing the right one for your needs can be confusing.
In this blog, we’ll break down each type of sheet and help you decide which one suits your project best.
What Are Polycarbonate Sheets?
Polycarbonate is a lightweight, shatterproof plastic known for its strength and clarity. It’s often used as a substitute for glass, offering impact resistance and UV protection in applications like roofing, skylights, partitions, and advertising panels.
