4mm Twinwall Polycarbonate Sheets
Mainly used for Greenhouse glazing, 4mm polycarbonate sheets are a lightweight and safer to handle alternative to glass. The sheets are manufactured from damage-resistant polycarbonate and have fine optical clarity. They also have co-extruded long life protection from the effects of UV rays. The high performance UV absorption layer means longer life. This is shown in prevention of yellowing and loss of strength. Polycarbonate offers excellent protection against vandalism and accidental damage. It has an impact resistance up to 200 times greater than glass. This is maintained over a broad temperature range and long service life. Whether you are replacing broken panes in your greenhouse or increasing the level of insulation, 4mm twin wall polycarbonate sheet is the perfect choice.

Frequently Asked questions
Which way up does my polycarbonate sheeting go?
Polycarbonate sheets are delivered with a peel off protective film covering both sides. The top side of the sheet has co-extruded (built in) UV protection so the sheet must be installed the right way up. Usually only one side of the sheet will have writing on the protective film. That indicates that it is the top of the sheet and the roof sheet should be fitted with that side facing the sky. If there is writing on both sides look for the one that says 'this side up'.
Are the ends of the sheets taped?
The open ends of the 4mm polycarbonate sheets are not taped.
Which is the length and which is the width of a sheet?
The length follows the lines of the flutes down the sheet and the width is across them.
Is 4mm polycarbonate sheet suitable for replacement greenhouse glazing?
Yes, 4mm is perfect for greenhouse glazing. 6mm twin wall polycarbonate is also popular.
