Poly Carbonate
Polycarbonate Sheets (PC sheets)
Our Polycarbonate sheets are made from raw materials sourced from some of the best suppliers in the industry based in Europe and Saudi Arabia. We use only prime quality virgin raw materials. Our polycarbonate sheets find use in various glazing, roofing, sound barrier applications across industry sectors and for applications like cladding, flashing, decorative applications, lighting, thermoforming etc.
Ranges of Polycarbonate sheets
- Solid Polycarbonate Sheet
- Embossed/Textured polycarbonate Sheet
- Crystal Polycarbonate Sheet
- Polycarbonate antiglare (AG Sheet)
- All of the above available in an extensive range of colors. Custom colors possible based on meeting our MOQ levels

Features of Polycarbonate sheets
- Impact strength: The impact strength of solid PC sheets is 200 times that of glass
- Light weight: The weight of a solid PC sheet is only about half of glass
- Transparency: The light transmission of PC sheet is 80-90 %( clear), for different thicknesses
- UV-protection: Our PC sheets are manufactured using UV stabilized PC resin that keeps the PC sheet from discoloring. Our state of the art machines can co-extrude up to 50 microns of UV coating on both sides of our Polycarbonate sheets to further enhance its UV resistant properties
- Resistance to weather: A PC sheet has resistance to bad weather and maintains excellent properties in a wide temperature range (from -40 to 120°C)
- Thermal insulation: The K-value of glass is 1.2 times that of a solid PC sheet. So PC Sheets have much lesser heat conductivity than glass and are very useful for insulation.
- Easy installation: A PC sheet can be bent while hot or cold and can be used on curved roofs, domes and windows. The minimum radius of curvature of a PC sheet is 175 times of its thickness
