JINBAO Flexible Solid Polycarbonate Sheets allow for on-site cold bending without heating. Engineered for curved roofing, barrel vaults, and safety shields. Virtually unbreakable (250x glass strength) and UV co-extruded. Available in 1mm-6mm thicknesses for maximum flexibility. 10-year warranty.
Flexible Polycarbonate Sheet
JINBAO
For architects, greenhouse builders, and industrial fabricators requiring a transparent material that can curve, Jinan Jinbao Plastic Co., Ltd. presents our Flexible Solid Polycarbonate (PC) Sheet.
Often misidentified as "flexible acrylic," this product is actually Solid Polycarbonate, the only engineering thermoplastic capable of cold bending (curving at room temperature) without cracking. While acrylic is rigid and brittle, JINBAO’s PC sheets offer the ductility of steel with the transparency of glass, making them the superior choice for arched walkways, dome skylights, and riot shields.
Cold Bendable: Can be curved into arches on-site without thermal forming. Minimum bend radius is 175x the sheet thickness.
Virtually Unbreakable: withstands extreme impact (hail, stones, hammers) without shattering. 250 times stronger than glass.
Crystal Clear: High optical clarity (up to 89% light transmission) comparable to glass.
UV Protected: Co-extruded UV coating on both sides prevents yellowing and brittleness for 10+ years outdoors.
Rollable (Thin Gauges): Thicknesses under 3mm can be supplied in rolls (up to 30m long) for seamless installation.
Fire Retardant: Self-extinguishing (Class B1) rating for safe use in public buildings.

Designed for projects requiring curves and impact safety:
Arched Roofing: Barrel vaults, covered walkways, and swimming pool enclosures.
Safety Glazing: Curved machine guards, riot shields, and motorcycle windshields.
Advertising: Curved light boxes and flexible signage faces.
Greenhouses: Seamless roofing that withstands hail and heavy snow loads.
Precision Extrusion: Our 35 production lines utilize Toshiba extrusion technology to ensure uniform thickness, which is critical for consistent bending radii.
Technical Support: We provide precise "Cold Bending Calculators" to help your engineers determine the safe curvature for each thickness.
Packaging for Export: Flexible sheets are shipped flat on pallets or in rolls (for thin gauges) wrapped in PE film and kraft paper to prevent deformation during transit.
Global Reach: With 26 years of experience, we understand the specific UV and climate requirements for markets from Brazil to Russia.

Q: Is this "Flexible Acrylic" or Polycarbonate?
A: This is Polycarbonate. We must clarify: Acrylic is rigid. If you try to bend standard acrylic cold, it will snap. Only Polycarbonate offers the flexibility to curve at room temperature safely.
Q: How much can I bend a 3mm sheet?
A: The safe "Cold Bending Radius" is generally 175 times the thickness. For a 3mm sheet, the minimum radius is 525mm (approx 20.6 inches). Bending tighter than this induces stress.
Q: Can you ship these sheets in a roll?
A: Yes, for thicknesses of 1.5mm to 3mm, we can supply long rolls (e.g., 1.22m x 30m) to reduce seams in your roofing project. Thicker sheets (4mm+) must be shipped flat.
Q: Does it scratch easily?
A: Polycarbonate is softer than acrylic. For high-traffic areas, we recommend our Hard-Coated (Abrasion Resistant) PC grade to prevent scratches.

Why do acrylic sheets in the same market have such different prices? This side-by-side fire test demonstrates how material quality can affect burning behavior.We first tested two low-priced acrylic sheet samples supplied by our customers and purchased from their local market. During the test, the samples produced heavy black smoke and a strong, unpleasant odor. After burning, their surfaces turned completely black.We then tested Jinbao premium acrylic sheet, manufactured using 100% virgin MMA material. It produced fine white smoke with a slight sweet odor. After the test, the surface showed only slight yellowing and small burn marks.Test observationsLow-price acrylic sheet samples:Heavy black smokeStrong, unpleasant odorSurface turned completely blackJinbao premium acrylic sheet:Made with 100% virgin MMAFine white smokeSlight sweet odorOnly slight yellowing and small burn marksStable and consistent qualityThis comparison helps illustrate the difference between different acrylic sheet quality grades—and why prices can vary significantly within the same market.Jinbao Acrylic Sheets — 100% virgin material, stable quality, and reliable performance.Contact us for product specifications, samples, quotations, or customized acrylic sheet solutions.
