First let’s explain what polycarbonate roofing is. polycarbonate is made from strong plastic materials that’s lightweight and able to withstand high temperatures easily, all while keeping the heat in at low temperatures, making polycarbonate perfect for swimming pools, conservatories, patios, and decking areas.

Why Use Polycarbonate Roofing?

There are many advantages to using polycarbonate roofing over traditional glass panes so I’m only going to go over the main ones here with you. The first one being that polycarbonate panels can withstand a large amount of force and are virtually unbreakable, making them perfect for roofing and construction.

Another huge benefit is the UV blockage, our range will block 100% of harmful UV rays and allow 90% of all natural light to come through, which when compared to glass panes only blocks 25% of UV rays, hence polycarbonate comes out on top as a better option for protection against the sun.

Furthermore, polycarbonate sheeting is extremely lightweight making installation easier, transport cheaper, and a great alternative for any roof that has weight restrictions such as lightweight timber and steel structures.

Our polycarbonate range has a fire rating of ‘Class 1’ meaning it’s highly resistant to fire and reduces the spread of the flame. This makes it perfect for use on almost any roof that may be at risk of fires or for anybody just wanting to build a safe living space.

Polycarbonate sheeting is a great roofing product that comes with very little drawbacks, the only real drawback is that you wouldn’t want to use it to roof your whole house! Many people still decide to go for traditional glass panes due to price, but we here at SBF INTERIORS AND OUTDOOR SOLUTIONS LTD believe in innovation and have cut down the price of all our polycarbonate sheeting to pass on all the savings to you, the customer. In addition, there are lots of hidden costs when it comes to glass panes like the installation fees and transport, all of which is either avoided with polycarbonate sheeting or is much more cost effective.
