200x Stronger Than Glass
One of the most unique characteristics of polycarbonate is its ability to withstand extreme temperatures. It remains tough and impact-resistant at temperatures as low as -40°C, making it a popular choice for outdoor applications in cold climates. It can also withstand temperatures as high as 120°C without losing its strength or transparency. This makes it an excellent material for use in a wide range of industries, including construction, automotive, and aerospace.
Environmentally Friendly
Polycarbonate is also an environmentally friendly material. It’s 100% recyclable and can be easily repurposed at the end of its life. It is also a safer alternative to glass, as it will not shatter upon impact. This makes it a popular choice for use in public buildings and schools, where safety is a top priority.
