Order Polycarbonate cut to your exact dimensions in a wide range of colours and thicknesses.
Polycarbonate is a high-performance thermoplastic material known for its exceptional impact resistance, toughness, and versatility. It is commonly used where strength, safety, and durability are critical, while still offering good optical clarity.
Unlike Perspex (Acrylic), Polycarbonate is virtually unbreakable under normal conditions, making it the preferred choice for safety glazing, machine guarding, and high-impact environments.
It can be cold-bent, thermoformed, machined, and fastened, making it suitable for a wide range of industrial and commercial applications.
MATERIAL PERFORMANCE
Up to 250 times stronger than glass, providing exceptional protection in demanding and high-impact applications.
Polycarbonate will typically bend or deform rather than shatter, making it particularly suitable for protective applications.
Approximately half the weight of glass, helping simplify handling, fabrication and installation.
Clear grades provide high light transmission, combining excellent visibility with outstanding strength.
Performs effectively in both hot and cold environments, supporting a broad range of applications.
Can be cut, drilled, routed, fastened or thermoformed for custom parts, panels and protective applications.
UV-stabilised grades are available for outdoor applications where exposure to sunlight is expected.
APPLICATIONS
RANGE
Polycarbonate sheet is available in a selection of clear, translucent and tinted finishes.
Colour swatches shown are indicative only. Actual tint, opacity and appearance may vary between product grades and screen displays.
Polycarbonate is a strong, lightweight plastic sheet known for its excellent impact resistance, clarity, and durability. It is commonly used as a tougher alternative to acrylic and glass.
Yes. Polycarbonate is significantly more impact-resistant than acrylic, making it a better choice for applications where strength, safety, and durability are important.
Yes, polycarbonate can be used outdoors, especially when it has UV-resistant protection. UV-grade polycarbonate helps reduce yellowing and weather damage from long-term sun exposure.
Yes. Clear polycarbonate sheet has excellent transparency and allows a high level of light transmission, making it suitable for windows, guards, covers, and display panels.
Yes. Polycarbonate sheet can be cut to custom sizes using CNC cutting, saw cutting, or other plastic fabrication methods. It can also be drilled, routed, and shaped depending on the application.
Polycarbonate is commonly used for machine guards, protective screens, windows, roof panels, safety barriers, display covers, signage, and general fabrication where strength and clarity are required.
The best thickness depends on the application. Thinner sheets are suitable for lightweight covers and displays, while thicker sheets are better for guards, panels, glazing, and impact-resistant barriers.
Yes, we can assist with a range of custom machining options, including drilling, internal cut-outs, rounded edges, chamfering, polishing, CNC routing, Laser cutting and custom shapes. If you have specific requirements, feel free to get in touch with our team.
Standard sheets are supplied with clean, machine-cut edges. If you require a polished or more refined edge finish, this can be arranged as an additional service.
While polycarbonate is very impact-resistant, it is not completely scratch-proof. To keep your sheet looking its best, we recommend cleaning with a soft cloth and avoiding abrasive materials or harsh chemicals.
