FAQs

Can these sheets be cut to size?

Yes, they can be easily cut using a fine-toothed circular saw or a jigsaw with a fine-tooth blade designed for plastic.

Are these suitable for a greenhouse?

Yes, their high light transmission and durability make them an excellent choice for greenhouse roofing.

What is the recommended slope for installation?

A minimum slope of 5 degrees is generally recommended to ensure effective water drainage and to prevent debris buildup.

Can I paint the sheets?

Painting is not recommended, as it will interfere with the light transmission and may compromise the UV-protective surface coating.

How should I store the sheets before installation?

Store them indoors or in a shaded area, kept flat and dry. Avoid leaving them stacked in direct sunlight, as heat can build up and deform the sheets.

Troubleshooting

Sheet is buckling or warping

Ensure fasteners are not overtightened and that you have pre-drilled holes to allow for thermal expansion.

Water leaking at seams

Check that the overlap is sufficient and that fasteners have proper rubber sealing washers installed.

Sheet discoloration over time

Verify that the sheet was installed with the UV-protected side facing outward; exposure to direct sunlight on the wrong side can accelerate aging.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly more durable and impact-resistant than standard PVC
  • Excellent long-term clarity due to built-in UV protection
  • Lightweight construction makes it easier to transport and install
  • Provides bright, natural lighting for covered areas

Cons

  • Requires proper support spacing to avoid structural sagging
  • Clear material can lead to heat buildup in enclosed spaces
  • Not intended for use as a primary load-bearing roof surface

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation requires basic woodworking tools and appropriate fasteners designed for polycarbonate roofing. Always pre-drill holes slightly larger than the fastener shank to allow for thermal expansion and contraction, which prevents the sheets from buckling. Use UV-rated sealing washers to ensure a watertight finish at each fixing point. When overlapping sheets, ensure a minimum of one full corrugation overlap to prevent leaks. To clean, use mild soap, water, and a soft cloth; avoid abrasive sponges or solvent-based cleaners that may damage the protective UV layer.
