The Benefits of Clear Polycarbonate Sheets


The design and properties of the clear polycarbonate sheets and cut to size polycarbonate sheets available right here at The Plastic People make them great for DIY tasks and professional applications alike.
Our clear polycarbonate sheets are great for many reasons, including:
  • They offer fantastic protection against UV rays and fire.
  • They’re just as transparent as glass and about half the weight.
  • They’re also around 250 x the strength of glass.
  • Polycarbonate is one of the toughest plastics on the market today – known for its high impact resistance.
  • Clear polycarbonate sheets purchased directly from us come with a 10 year guarantee against yellowing, ageing and hailstones.
 

Where Can Clear Polycarbonate Sheets Be Used?


Such properties mean that both our clear and cut to size polycarbonate sheets are more than suitable for fitting secondary glazing to a property for making windows and doors more secure. The material is also ideal when used as replacement greenhouse glass.

Due to its scratch-resistant qualities, polycarbonate has the potential to maintain a high-quality appearance for years – wherever it’s used.

Its lightweight nature makes it very straightforward to fix and handle – so if you’re a novice when it comes to DIY, there’s no need to fear.

We can drill holes into the plastic if required, so it’s ready to fit as soon as your order arrives. We even supply the screws and screw covers as well.
 

Delivery Options for Clear Polycarbonate Sheets

 

We take extra care to make sure your clear polycarbonate sheet order reaches you in tip-top condition.

We make sure that each order is individually covered and protected prior to being dispatched. Although polycarbonate is very strong – we don’t want to run the risk of it becoming damaged in transit.

When it does eventually arrive, all you need to do is take the protective film off the plastic before you fix it into place.

Unless stated otherwise, all orders are dispatched through our standard delivery service.

You can upgrade to next day delivery if you need your order to arrive promptly, or order through our named day delivery service if you have a particular day in mind where it would be most convenient to receive the delivery when it arrives.
