Polycarbonate Sheets
Combining clarity with durability, polycarbonate sheet (also known as Lexan & Tuffak) provides clear, unobstructed views. It can withstand the harshest environments, providing unparalleled quality for years to come. Polycarbonate is an engineering thermoplastic that is known for its high heat deflection. This makes it an ideal material for a variety of applications, from food packaging to medical devices.

Greenhouses
Twinwall polycarbonate provides insulated, diffused light and durable protection for Canadian greenhouses.
Twinwall Polycarbonate
Twinwall polycarbonate sheets offer significant benefits for Canadian greenhouses. Their multi-layered structure provides excellent thermal insulation, crucial for Canada's varying temperatures, while their light weight simplifies installation. Twinwall also boasts high impact and UV resistance, protecting plants and ensuring longevity.
For Canadian greenhouse applications, Twinwall's thermal insulation extends growing seasons and reduces heating costs. Its diffused light promotes even plant growth, and its durability minimizes maintenance, offering a cost-effective and resilient glazing solution for Canada's climate.
Polycarbonate Vs. Acrylic
Need a brilliant, glass-like finish at a lower price point or easier polishability? Consider Acrylic Sheets for retail displays and general signage, or choose Polycarbonate where maximum shatter resistance is required.
