Polycarbonate Sheet

The transparent polycarbonate sheet is made of polycarbonate particles. The transparency is above 91%. It is easy to maintain. You can customize your size, and we provide a range of thicknesses. It is as durable as an acrylic sheet.  UV coating can be done during the process. According to the Typical Hardness Rockwell M, Polycarbonate hardness is 70 – 95.

Cast Acrylic Canopy

It is also known as a plexiglass shed. Jinbao’s have cast acrylic canopy with a high light transmittance which reached 94%. It is easy to clean and maintain. During the production, an anti-UV coating will be sprayed onto the surface of the plexiglass. This will reduce the UV damage to the surface of our acrylic. According to the Typical Hardness Rockwell M, Acrylic hardness is 105.

To wrap it up, both of the materials hold a high transmission. There was a slight difference in the hardness between acrylic and polycarbonate. Acrylic sheet stands out for its hardness. You can choose these two materials freely. They are all a great choice depending on your personal preference.
