Polycarbonate Sheet Extrusion

Polycarbonate sheet extrusion produces flat and profiled sheet with the impact strength polycarbonate is known for — many times tougher than glass or acrylic at the same thickness, with excellent clarity and good temperature tolerance. Extruded polycarbonate sheet is used for glazing, guards, screens, rooflights and covers where breakage is not an option.

Sheet work sits alongside the profile work described on our main polycarbonate extrusions page.

Polycarbonate wins on impact strength and temperature range; acrylic offers higher surface hardness and clarity at lower cost. For guards and safety glazing, extruded polycarbonate sheet is usually the right choice; for display and decorative work, compare it with our acrylic extrusions. Our team will advise on the right material for your application — the full list is on our materials page.

How strong is extruded polycarbonate sheet?
Polycarbonate has outstanding impact resistance and is the material typically chosen for machine guards and vandal-resistant glazing.

Can polycarbonate sheet be used outdoors?
Yes — with a UV-protective grade or coating it performs well outdoors and is widely used for canopies and rooflights.

Do you also extrude polycarbonate profiles?
Yes — profiles, tubes and bespoke sections are covered on our polycarbonate extrusions page.
