studying architecture within. What do you see to
be common in all of the above buildings? The use
of polycarbonate! With its ability to improve a
buildings thermal efficiency, maximize natural
light, and keep the structure light in weight,
polycarbonate roofing sheets have been used in
all of the above structures. This means that
polycarbonate has become one of the most popular
materials for architects all over the world.
But, other than the above mentioned three
reasons, there are many more reasons why the
material is gaining popularity. Protection from
all kinds of weather Polycarbonate can protect
the building from all kinds of weather like cold,
heat, rain, storm, snow, and hail as it
possesses amazing impact resistance against all
these elements. Easy to cut and install Because
polycarbonate is light in weight and resistant to
impact, it can be easily transported and
installed. It can also be easily cut with the
help of sharp-toothed scissors or circular saws
without producing any harmful shards. Light
maximization along with protection and
privacy Polycarbonate can let in maximum light
because of its transparency. And, if you want to
reduce the amount of incoming light or increase
the privacy you want to have indoors, you can
always opt for colored polycarbonate, or a
textured one. Moreover, polycarbonate is also a
great sound insulator, meaning no sound
disturbance from outside. Also, polycarbonate
