Description

Key Features & Benefits

• Twinwall polycarbonate construction for strength and insulation
• High light transmission to maximise natural daylight
• UV1 protection on one side to help prevent yellowing and degradation
• Class 1 Fire Rating BS476/7 for enhanced fire performance
• Lightweight and easy to handle compared to glass
• Suitable for a wide range of roofing and glazing applications
• Cut to your measurements

Sheet Taping Options

To help protect the internal flutes of the sheet, the ends can be supplied pre-taped with:

• Aluminium tape applied to the top of the sheet
• Anti-dust tape applied to the bottom of the sheet

The tape helps prevent dirt, dust and debris from entering the open flutes of the material. The sheet ends should also be sealed using suitable sheet closures during installation.

If you do not require your sheets to be taped, this must be clearly requested at the time of purchase.

Installation Guidance

• For best performance, we recommend that 10mm twinwall polycarbonate sheets should not exceed 700mm in width unless additional support is provided.
• The flutes within the sheet run parallel to the length of the panel and should be installed accordingly.
• The maximum sheet size available in this thickness is: 2100mm wide x 7000mm long

Important Information

• We will always endeavour to cut sheets to your requested measurements; however, due to industry standards, a cutting tolerance of +/- 5mm applies.
• We cannot guarantee where the cutting blade will fall through the sheet, therefore hard edges cannot be guaranteed on every panel.
• Materials may vary in brand depending on supplier availability. We cannot guarantee a specific manufacturer at the time of ordering.
• These sheets are cut to your individual requirements and are therefore bespoke and non-returnable.
• Please store sheets flat in a cool, dry location before installation.

FAQ

How Strong is 10mm Polycarbonate?

Standard 10mm polycarbonate is over 200 times stronger than glass and 30 times stronger than plastic alternatives such as acrylic sheeting. Multiwall polycarbonate like our 10mm multiwall polycarbonate sheets have an impact resistance 250 times stronger than glass. Some claim that it is virtually unbreakable.

What Size are 10mm Multiwall Polycarbonate Sheets?

Our 10mm multiwall polycarbonate sheets come in a maximum size of 2100mm X 7000mm, however this can be cut to size to suit your requirements. Note that once they have been cut to size, they cannot be returned.

What’s the Difference Between Solid Polycarbonate Sheets and Multiwall Sheets?

The difference between multiwall sheets, like our 10mm multiwall polycarbonate sheets, and solid polycarbonate sheets is that solid polycarbonate is a single, solid layer. Multiwall has at least two layers that look a little like cardboard in structure. Multiwall is ideal for outdoor use. Typically, it has excellent thermal properties, trapping heat between the “walls”, and also blocks UV radiation.

Can You Walk on 10mm Polycarbonate Sheets?

Whilst 10mm multiwall polycarbonate sheets are incredibly strong and durable, we don’t recommend walking on them under any circumstances as they are also somewhat flexible, meaning that they could bend under the weight of a person.
