  1. Advantages and Disadvantages of Using Polycarbonate Sheet New technologies lead to better materials that deliver more flexible and cost-effective roofing solutions. One of these developments is polycarbonate, a highly impact-resistant and durable thermoplastic substrate used in cutting-edge roofing systems like Suntuf and Laserlite 2000. Here at Versatile Structures, we pride ourselves on our ability to adapt and overcome unique design challenges related to using a polycarbonate sheet in Brisbane. We owe our extensive experience with this material to products like Palsun, Danpalon, EGR Thermoplastics, Palram, and Makrolon. One of our key projects is at the West End Urban Common, where we designed, customised, manufactured, and installed insulated polycarbonate roof panels for the Brisbane City Council. Should you use a polycarbonate sheet? In this blog, we will share its pros and cons to help you make an informed decision. Advantages of using polycarbonate sheet roofing Polycarbonate sheet is ideal for Brisbane structures because it offers 99.9% protection from the sun’s harmful UV rays. Moreover, it offers outstanding thermal insulation while withstanding extreme temperatures. Despite these properties, it remains lightweight and is available in many forms, including roofing panels and standing seams. Moreover, it delivers reliable light transmission and thermal control. Here are more benefits of polycarbonate roofing: Virtually unbreakable: Its impact strength is 30 times greater than acrylic and 50 times more than float glass. It’s also bullet-proofed, so it’s often used as police shields. Lightweight: Easy to manage and transport, more effective, and quicker to install. Versatile: Polycarbonate sheet is ideal for various shading solutions, including skylights, roofing, cladding, patios, and facades. Durable: Its typical lifespan is up to 15 years with special treatments.

  2. Are there disadvantages? The disadvantages of using a polycarbonate sheet in Brisbane have to do with its potentially high cost, maintenance, and susceptibility to dents and surface damage. The material needs a special cleaning solution that doesn’t have solvents, alkaline, or abrasives. Plus, it can expand. Don’t worry — by letting our team design, manufacture, and install your Brisbane polycarbonate sheet to our team, you can maximise the advantages and minimise any drawbacks. We use only the products of trusted brands like EGR Thermoplastics, Palsun, Danpalon, Makrolon, and Palram and customise their design and installation to suit your requirements.
