With the amazing qualities that it has,
polycarbonate roofing sheets have become a
very popular material, making its way up ahead in
the field of architecture and construction. Some
of the most popular polycarbonate buildings
around the world include

• Municipal Sports Hall in Spain, with
  translucent panels of polycarbonate with a
• colourful pixellated backdrop that adds an
  ethereal quality matching the colours of the sky
• Casa Policarbonat in Spain, with a polycarbonate
  façade that forms a layer of external
  insulation, while passively heating the
  interiors, and glowing up the windows when
  yellow lights are switched on inside after dusk
• House for Tousuienn in Japan, with translucent
  polycarbonate walls that enable light to flood
  the interiors without compromising on privacy
  indoors
• The Mansio in UK, designed to reflect a Roman
  fort, built with polycarbonate to make it stand
  out from the surroundings and remain visible from
  even a distance
• The Leff Art Studio in USA, with polycarbonate
  creating a reserved private space filled with
  diffused natural light that glows from inside-out
  when lights are switched on at night
• Gwangmyeong Upcycle Art Center in South Korea,
  with polycarbonate panels paired with a steel
  frame that gave an abandoned building the
  position of a popular art center

What do all these structures depict? They all
portray the beauty of polycarbonate that makes
the structures glow up with the light within
after dusk, while flooding the interiors with
beautiful natural sunlight during the day. Thus,
you can have a beautiful and bright structure
built with polycarbonate roofing sheets. This is
why many people prefer using these sheets
instead of glass. There are many other reasons
why polycarbonate is preferred over glasslike
being light in weight, more durable, more
cost-effective, and more. However, one main
reason is also the beauty that comes with
polycarbonate. Polycarbonate roofing sheets are
available in a variety of colours, textures, and
types. You can choose from the wide range to
suit your requirements and enhance the look of
your structure. Plain solid polycarbonate sheets
These are absolutely plain polycarbonates that
come in a variety of colours. You can choose
from completely transparent sheets or translucent
ones or you can pick out from the range of
colours available to either blend in or be in
contrast with the structure you are building the
extension for. Textured polycarbonate sheets
These are just like plain solid sheets, but with
a textured surface. The textures could be prints
or engravings. These are the perfect choice when
you want natural light to enter your structure,
but limit the amount. The texture minimizes the
amount of light coming in. Corrugated
polycarbonate sheets These appear to be double
layered sheets, but are a single layer shaped
into a series of parallel ridges and grooves,
which gives the end product added rigidity and
strength. Again, these sheets too are available
in a wide range of colours. Multiwall
polycarbonate sheets These are polycarbonates
with a hollow and cellular structure, available
in two to five layered options. These sheets,
even though have multiple layers, are very light
in weight. Moreover, they have improved thermal
insulation. These sheets can provide minimum 25
and maximum 80 light transmission, depending
upon the number of layers and the colours
used. You can get all of the above mentioned
polycarbonate roofing sheets at Tuflite Polymers,
the leading manufacturer of the same in the
country.
