Why Should You Upgrade To A Polycarbonate Roof?
You may have a patio, awning, skywalk, skylight,
carport, greenhouse, or any other such structure
within your premises that is made from glass.
This material definitely lets you extend your
home without blocking away the light that it
receives, thus making your space look equally
bright and spacious, as it would without these
structures. But, have you ever considered how
effective, long lasting, and protective the
material is? When the scorching sunlight comes
in through these roofs, how harmful is it for the
inhabitants? When heavy winds and storms
prevail, how sturdy is your structure? When heavy
impacts of hail and stone are felt, how tough is
your roof? Glass cannot be as strong when it
comes in contact with such heavy impacts and
harsh environmental conditions, as it may tend to
crack and break easily. Plus, when sunrays fall
over it, it lets in all of it indoors, which
makes it great for lightening up the indoors,
but have you considered the fact that the direct
rays of the sun can burn your skin, and over
exposure to sunlight can cause other health
issues?
So then, what do you do? Do you give up on
having a transparent structure and opt for
solid opaque materials like bricks, wood, slate,
and clay instead? No! You neednt compromise on
the

transparency of these structures, but you must
definitely think of another superior material
one like polycarbonate. Polycarbonate is a
thermoplastic polymer that has gained high
popularity against traditional glass to build
all the kinds of structures spoken of above. It
is way superior in characteristics than glass,
in terms of protection, safety, strength, impact
resistance, durability, and more. Moreover,
polycarbonate sheet manufacturers are coming up
with varied kinds of polycarbonates in various
colours, prints, and types like solid, textured,
multiwalled, corrugated, and profiled. This
helps you choose the polycarbonate that perfectly
suits your application, while bringing to it a
visual appeal too, which has not been possible
with glass. Polycarbonate is light in weight.
This quality makes it very easy to carry,
transport, and install polycarbonates, without
the need of any kinds of additional tools,
labour, and machinery. And, all of this also
reduces the costs involved. Polycarbonate is
durable. In fact, it has an impact resistance
that is 200 times that of glass! So, you can
imagine the amount of impact and pressure it can
withstand against even the harshest of
conditions. So, there is no need to worry about
breaking of your structure, as in the case of
glass. Polycarbonate is UV-resistant. This one
property in itself is enough to make
polycarbonate stand tall against glass. While
glass lets in all the light, polycarbonate lets
in maximum light, while also preventing the
harmful UV radiations of the sun from entering
the structure, thus keeping the inhabitants
protected. This is one reason why greenhouses are
being built with polycarbonates today. If these
reasons are not enough, you would definitely want
to opt for polycarbonates after realizing that
polycarbonate is fire resistant, temperature
resistant, long lasting, and sound proof. Will
you get all of these benefits with glass?
Certainly not! So, waste no more time thinking,
and get your glass roofs replaced with
polycarbonates right away before you face any
consequences, only to regret later. And, if you
are in the process of having a new transparent
structure built, polycarbonate is what you must
choose. Get in touch with Tuflite Polymers, the
