Monolithic polycarbonate sheets "Macrolux" and "Policomp" are sheets made using a method of extrusion, characterised by especially high durability, shock resistance and light weight. Polycarbonate is approximately 250 times stronger and almost two times lighter than common glass. It also features better acoustic properties.
Monolithic polycarbonate sheets have UV protection in both sides, which guarantees their durability using plastic both inside the premises and in direct sunlight.
