While the building or renovating a commercial/residential property, there is often a need for durable, strong yet flexible material that can offer a clean and stylish look with high utility. No doubt that glass and wood have their own distinct advantages and features but they have their own pros and cons and might not fit in all scenarios.
Luckily, one of the new age materials i.e. polysheets also known as polycarbonate sheets, have undoubtedly created their own place in the manufacturing and construction industry. Polysheet is basically a thermoplastic that comes in a transparent sheet. It is incredibly tough and absorbs minimal moisture making it resistant to impact damage as well as water damage. Their versatility, flexibility, and toughness have made them a preferred choice for both constructing a new premise or renovating an old one.
Some of the wonderful benefits they offer are:
Easily Mouldable: Depending upon where you are planning to use the polysheets , be it window, door or roof, its shape, and design can be easily adjusted to match your requirements. Its strength with design flexibility is most important feature. It is several times stronger than acrylic and glass yet more easily molded than glass and is much lighter also.
Versatile Medium: Polysheets can be easily used in both indoors and outdoors as they do not get affected by external weather conditions such as wind, rain etc. Inside the house, they can even be used as shower panels, enclosures, etc without any worry about them getting affected by the water or moisture in the bathrooms as they absorb minimal moisture. Outside the house, they can also be used as panels or shed extension to protect you from the sun and to create private enclosures for your relaxation or entertainment.
Strong and Impact Resistant: While polysheets are very light to handle and work with, don’t get fooled by their lightweight. They have incredible strength and toughness and they are hard to break. Due to this, they are a preferred choice when there is a requirement for tough and strong windows, doors and enclosures instead of glass which is very fragile and delicate.
Transparent: While the sheets can be colored and designed in different shades and colors, the primary form that they are available in is transparent. They allow access to natural light into your premises, resulting in huge savings on your energy bills. That’s why they are used in greenhouse projects in place of glass where natural light is of prime importance.
Heat and Fire Resistant: They are naturally heat resistant and when combined with flame retardant material, they can be safely used in construction and engineering projects where there are flammability concerns.. Many commercial and residential developers prefer using them in their projects due to this factor to ensure the safety of the occupants from any fire related hazards.
Style & Design factor: Due to the wide range of designs and colors that polysheets are available in, you can easily match them with your design requirements for an aesthetic and impressive look in your construction.
Their mix and match ability, along with comprehensive strength gives you the flexibility to sue them almost anywhere in your project for a stylish and elegant look, that will last you for many years to come.
