Polycarbonate, like so many other plastic sheet materials, is in high demand by businesses nationwide. One of the main reasons why polycarbonate sheets are so popular is because they can be used for a wide range of projects – from lenses in eyewear to protective gear and medical equipment, anti-vandal glazing, and machine guards.

Polycarbonate is well renowned for its strength and durability. In fact, it is 200-250 times stronger than glass, which makes it an ideal alternative material.
