Description
These premium triplewall polycarbonate sheets provide a lightweight yet exceptionally robust glazing solution for roofing and vertical applications. Manufactured with a multiwall construction, they deliver outstanding impact resistance and excellent thermal insulation while remaining easy to handle and install.
Finished in an opal tint to diffuse light, the sheets reduce glare and solar heat build-up, making them ideal for canopies, walkways, rooflights, shelters and a wide range of architectural and design projects. UV-stable protection helps maintain clarity and performance, even with prolonged outdoor exposure.
Product Features
- Triplewall polycarbonate construction for enhanced strength and insulation compared to single and twinwall alternatives.
- Available in 16 mm thickness, providing a balanced combination of rigidity, impact resistance and thermal performance.
- Opal finish for diffused natural light transmission and reduced glare in covered areas.
- Multiple standard sheet lengths: 2000, 2500, 3000, 4000 and 6000 mm to suit a variety of span and layout requirements.
- Range of sheet widths including 610, 700, 800, 900 and 980 mm, plus additional width options for flexible design and coverage.
- UV-stable outer layer to resist yellowing and degradation under long-term outdoor exposure.
- Lightweight, easy-to-cut panels compatible with common glazing and roofing systems.
Key Features and Benefits
- High impact resistance helps protect against damage from hail, wind-blown debris and day-to-day knocks, reducing maintenance and replacement costs.
- Triplewall profile creates insulating air chambers that improve thermal efficiency and help maintain more stable temperatures beneath the glazing.
- Opal light-diffusing tint improves visual comfort by softening direct sunlight and minimising harsh shadows and hotspots.
- UV protection layer preserves sheet clarity and structural integrity, extending service life in demanding outdoor environments.
- Low weight compared with glass means easier handling, faster installation and reduced structural loading on supporting frameworks.
- Can be trimmed to size on site with suitable tools, offering flexibility for bespoke projects and complex roof geometries.

- Covered walkways, entrance canopies and smoking shelters in schools, hospitals and commercial sites.
- Rooflights and skylights in workshops, warehouses and outbuildings.
- Veranda and pergola roofing for gardens, terraces and outdoor seating areas.
- Architectural cladding and vertical glazing panels where impact resistance and light control are important.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can these triplewall polycarbonate sheets be cut to size on site?
Yes, the sheets can be cut on site using suitable tools such as a fine-toothed circular saw or jigsaw. Always support the sheet fully, follow the manufacturer’s safety guidance and ensure the open flutes are sealed appropriately after cutting to prevent moisture and debris ingress.
Which side of the sheet should face upwards during installation?
The side with the UV-protected surface should always face outwards towards the sun. This surface is usually clearly marked on the protective film supplied with the sheet. Installing the sheet the correct way round ensures long-term resistance to weathering and discolouration.
Are these sheets suitable for completely flat roofing installations?
Triplewall polycarbonate sheets should not be used on completely flat roofs. A minimum fall is required to allow water run-off and to help keep the flutes dry and clean. Always follow recommended installation guidelines for the correct pitch, support spacing and fixing details.
