Full polycarbonate (PC) - extremely durable material for industrial and security applications
Full polycarbonate sheets are the ultimate solution for applications where maximum durability is key, safety and optical clarity. Their high impact toughness makes them ideal for machine enclosures, protective shields, safety fillings and industrial structures.
Unlike other plastics (e.g. clear Plexiglas) or glass, full polycarbonate offers a combination of extreme strength, light weight and long life, making it the material of choice in modern industry.
Solid polycarbonate (PC)
Full (compact) polycarbonate is a transparent thermoplastic that is up to 200 times more impact resistant than glass. At the same time, it retains very good light transmission and high mechanical stability.
Thanks to these properties, it is often used where conventional materials fail - for example, in environments with an increased risk of mechanical damage.
Key features of full polycarbonate sheets:
Extreme impact resistance
Full polycarbonate is virtually unbreakable. Suitable for:
- machine and equipment covers
- protective safety features
- industrial plants
High clarity and optical quality
The panels achieve up to 90% light transmission, which is comparable to glass. Ideal for:
- transparent polycarbonate covers
- sneeze guards
- visual controls
Thermal and dimensional stability
The material withstands a wide range of temperatures and retains its properties even under long-term loading.
UV stabilisation
The polycarbonate sheets supplied and processed by us (EXOLON, MAKROLON, IMPEX) have double-sided UV protection.
Available formats and thicknesses of full polycarbonate sheets:
- Formats: 2050 × 3050 mm, 2050 × 1525 mm
- Polycarbonate plate thicknesses: 0.75 - 15 mm
- Colours: clear PC, opal PC, smoke - bronze PC

We provide sale and cutting of full polycarbonate to customized. You only pay for the material you actually need. We provide We also provide surface treatment of the edges after cutting. Small batches of clear polycarbonate are usually can be produced in our factory on demand.
Hollow polycarbonate roof sheets (PC)
Hollow polycarbonate roof sheets bear some significant thermal, insulation and stiffness properties
Polycarbonate sheets bear UV protection. This protection results in suitability for outdoor use (regardless climate conditions).
Due to its high impact resistance polycarbonate sheets provide great safety. There is no chance of shattering or fragmentation. Risk of damage during transport and installation is very low. Hollow polycarbonate roof sheets can be installed flat or cold bent.
Hollow polycarbonate roof sheets properties:
- extreme resistance to breakage
- high resistance to weather and climate
- lightweight material
- easy processing, machining and installation
- stability of physical and mechanical properties in wide temperature range (-40 °C to +115 °C)
- outstanding thermal insulation properties
- can be cold bent
