For B2B distributors and industrial procurement officers requiring a material that surpasses the limitations of standard acrylic and glass, Jinan Jinbao Plastic Co., Ltd. presents our 1/2 Inch (12.7mm) Transparent Polycarbonate Sheet.
Often mistaken for acrylic due to its glass-like clarity, this premium PC (Polycarbonate) sheet is a distinctly superior engineering thermoplastic. While acrylic is rigid, our polycarbonate offers flexibility and 250 times the impact resistance of glass, making it virtually unbreakable. As a leading manufacturer since 1996, JINBAO provides factory-direct access to high-grade PC sheets tailored for security, construction, and industrial glazing applications.
Virtually Unbreakable: withstands high-velocity impact, sledgehammers, and vandalism; ideal for safety glazing.
Optical Clarity: High light transmission rates (up to 89%) comparable to glass but at half the weight.
Premium Raw Materials: Manufactured using 100% Virgin Mitsubishi, Sabic, or Bayer resin to prevent yellowing and hazing.
UV Protection: Co-extruded UV layer protects against harsh sunlight, ensuring a 10+ year service life outdoors.
Thermal Stability: Excellent performance in temperatures ranging from -40°C to +120°C.
Easy Fabrication: Can be cold-bent, drilled, and cut without cracking, unlike standard acrylic.

Q: Does the sheet come with masking?
A: Absolutely. All JINBAO 1/2" PC sheets are protected by high-quality PE film on both sides to prevent scratches during transit and fabrication.
Q: What is the MOQ for wholesale orders?
A: Our standard MOQ is typically 1-2 tons (mixed sizes allowed). Please contact our sales team for a specific quote based on your region.
