Why Commercial Builders Love Polycarbonate

Polycarbonate roofing has revolutionised commercial construction in Kenya. Its unique combination of strength, lightness, and transparency makes it ideal for a wide range of applications.

Key Benefits

1. Natural Light Transmission

Polycarbonate sheets allow up to 90% light transmission, reducing the need for artificial lighting during daytime hours. This translates to significant energy savings for warehouses, factories, and retail spaces.

2. Impact Resistance

200 times stronger than glass, polycarbonate is virtually unbreakable. This makes it ideal for areas prone to hailstorms or where safety is a concern.

3. UV Protection

Our polycarbonate sheets come with built-in UV protection, blocking harmful rays while still allowing natural light through. This protects both people and merchandise inside the building.

4. Lightweight Installation

Polycarbonate is significantly lighter than glass or traditional roofing materials, reducing structural load requirements and installation costs.

5. Cost-Effective

When you factor in reduced lighting costs, lower structural requirements, and minimal maintenance, polycarbonate offers excellent long-term value.
