Polycarbonate Carports

Polycarbonate roof sheeting for carports is fast replacing shade cloth as a preferred covering. This thermoplastic polymer is impact resistant, can tolerate high temperatures, deflects damaging ultra-violet rays, has inbuilt light transmission qualities and offers years of untroubled service.

Apart from the fact that polycarbonate products are low maintenance, it is lightweight and easy to work with, making the construction of a carport a simple task for DIY enthusiasts. Other advantages are:
• High impact resistant to extreme weather conditions
• Durability
• Shatterproof
• Energy efficient
• Scratch-resistant

Polycarbonate sheets are available in a variety of colours, shapes and thicknesses. Despite its translucent qualities, polycarbonate roof sheeting protects vehicles from the sun because of its ability to deflect ultraviolet rays. Its popularity as a carport roof cover has grown because of its insulation capabilities that distribute heat evenly.

As a DIY product, polycarbonate sheets can be cut and shaped easily. They are affordable and offer homeowners many years of maintenance-free use. All that is needed is a wash down with water and mild soap detergent. Only soft cloths should be used in the cleaning process.

The advent of polycarbonate products has changed the lifestyle of many South Africans. This flexible plastic polymer product is used in the manufacture of awnings, skylights, greenhouses, fencing and barriers. It is also a popular security and protection product in the manufacture of bullet-proof shields.

If you need a material that provides durability, resistance and strength, while being lightweight and malleable, polycarbonate sheets are the ideal choice.
