Replacement Polycarbonate Greenhouse Panels - Cut To Size
Choose superstrong polycarbonate panels for greenhouses here at The Plastic People and create a virtually indestructible greenhouse. If you are trying to choose between greenhouse glass or greenhouse plastic (polycarbonate), then make sure to consider that the panels that we have available are lighter than glass yet 250 x stronger. Our transparent plastic for greenhouse panels comes in both cut-to-size and standard sizes, to suit all requirements. A polycarbonate greenhouse can fullfil the functions of a traditional glass greenhouse without the fragility or weight.
We also offer a cut to shape service which you can access here. We offer 20 popular greenhouse glass shapes. If the shape you require for your poly greenhouse is not there, please email us and we will reply with a quote for you.
Rest assured that as well as our polycarbonate sheets for greenhouses being 250 x stronger than greenhouse glass, they are also half the weight and so are a superb choice as replacement greenhouse panels for broken or existing glass panels.
Polycarbonate is much stronger than other alternatives, so you can be confident that once you have installed your greenhouse polycarbonate panels, you won't need to replace them anytime soon.
When selecting your polycarbonate greenhouse sheets we recommend a minimum gauge of 3mm for adequate rigidity. This is because some customers have told us 2mm thick polycarbonate can be 'too bendy' particularly on larger panel sizes.
We also supply:
- Acrylic Standard Sized Greenhouse Panels
- Acrylic Cut to Size Greenhouse Panels
- Polycarbonate Standard Sized Greenhouse Panels
- Polycarbonate Special Shaped Greenhouse Panels

If you prefer, we can drill any holes for you, just let us know how many you'd like (we generally recommend a hole every 300mm) by completing the optional extras section when you place your order.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are there any independent reviews of polycarbonate greenhouse glazing?
Yes, you might find this article interesting – read here to see what The Telegraph gardening section say.
How do I install the polycarbonate greenhouse panels myself?
First things first – buy polycarbonate greenhouse glazing panels which are the same size as your original panels, then you can fit them in exactly the same way and use the same clips that you already have. On wooden frames, you can choose to drill the polycarbonate on or use putty. If you would like us to pre-drill holes in your polycarbonate for you, we can do that so your holes are ready when the panels are delivered.
How do I order polycarbonate panels to fit my greenhouse?
Write down the sizes of your existing panes – these sizes are what you will need to order your new polycarbonate replacements. Simply enter these measurements into our Cut To Size calculator above. Using this method, the panels will be ready to fit straight onto your greenhouse.
What effect does UV have on polycarbonate?
Solar radiation has a particularly harmful effect upon materials that are not protected. Our multiwall polycarbonate comes with a UV protected surface, ensuring long-term optical quality even under UV exposure.
Why is polycarbonate good for greenhouse glazing?
Our polycarbonate is 200x stronger than glass yet half its weight. This makes the material a superb, easy-to-use choice for replacing broken or existing greenhouse glass panels. We think it beats glass panels hands down – but don't take our word for it.

Protective Films
All plastic sheet products will have a Clear, Blue or White protective film on both sides or a combination of all three. This is to protect during transit and needs removing before usage. Sometimes it can be difficult to peel off but use a thumbnail gently on any corner to lift and peel. Alternatively gently wet any corner with a cloth to separate film and peel.
Adhesives & Sealants
When using any adhesives or sealants with your plastic sheet product great care must be taken in ensuring its compatibility. Some products can react adversely and either not bond/seal properly or would cause the acrylic to cloud or become white at the bond line. Refer to our web pages for advice if unsure. Check your sealant/adhesives ‘use by date’ to ensure its still current for best performance in your project.
Delivery Damages

Please email a photograph of the damage along with your order number and contact details as soon as possible to service@theplasticpeople.co.uk.
