The most com­monly used twin-wall and triple-wall prod­ucts are now read­ily avail­able and easy to obtain here in Col­orado Springs. Pick-up is free, save on crat­ing and freight cost if your local and able to pick up. Local charges for local deliv­er­ies do apply.

Twin-wall prod­ucts

Multi-wall poly­car­bon­ate twin wall sheets are pro­duced in 4mm, 6mm, 8 mm and 10 mm. These prod­ucts pro­vide high light trans­mis­sion, good ther­mal insu­la­tion, high tem­per­a­ture resis­tance, high impact strength (hail resis­tance) and can be spe­cial ordered with min-dew coat­ing which elim­i­nates con­den­sa­tion and water droplets.

Twin wall is the most eco­nom­i­cal grade of multi-wall sheet avail­able; it comes with a 10 year war­ranty against yel­low­ing and dam­age from hail.

Instal­la­tion tip
Poly­car­bon­ate pan­els are sup­plied with a pro­tec­tive PE film which should be kept on until sheet is installed. The UV pro­tected side is to be faced towards the sun and is marked with a white printed film, light blue film or a sticker say­ing Macrolux® multi-wall poly­car­bon­ate sheet. Macrolux® crates or sheets should be stored in an area not exposed to the sun, or indi­rect heat from the sun, which could make the removal of pro­tec­tive film difficult.

Stiff fix­ing by means of adhe­sive or putty is to be avoided. Top and bot­tom ends of a sheet must always be sealed by means of alu­minum tape to pre­vent dust or dirt pen­e­trat­ing inside the flutes. Alu­minum tape must be pro­tected with proper poly­car­bon­ate “U” profiles.

Triple-wall prod­ucts

Multi-wall poly­car­bon­ate triple wall sheet thick­nesses are 6mm, 8 mm, 10 mm, 16 mm and 20 mm and pro­vide even greater ther­mal insu­la­tion prop­er­ties than twin wall prod­uct.  All triple wall prod­ucts pro­vide high light trans­mis­sion, good ther­mal insu­la­tion, high tem­per­a­ture resis­tance, high impact strength (hail resis­tance) and can have our min-dew coat­ing which elim­i­nates con­den­sa­tion and water droplets.

While increas­ing ther­mal insu­la­tion prop­er­ties, triple wall still lets the light in with a min­i­mal drop of light trans­mis­sion ver­sus the twin wall prod­uct. It is the most eco­nom­i­cal grade of multi-wall sheet avail­able; it comes with a 10 year war­ranty against yel­low­ing and dam­age from hail.

Five-wall prod­ucts

Five Wall poly­car­bon­ate sheet is avail­able in gauges from 16mm, 20 mm and 25 mm. It has a sig­nif­i­cant improve­ment in ther­mal insu­la­tion prop­er­ties over the twin and triple wall while only hav­ing a min­i­mal drop in light trans­mis­sion. While these higher end prod­ucts are not as fre­quently used in Hor­ti­cul­tural appli­ca­tions, they are avail­able for those unique appli­ca­tions where supe­rior insu­la­tion prop­er­ties are required at a min­i­mal upcharge.

Five Wall has all the stan­dard prop­erty per­for­mance you would expect from multi-wall poly­car­bon­ate; heat resis­tance, high light trans­mis­sion, great impact and hail resis­tance and high ther­mal insu­la­tion val­ues and can have our min-dew coat­ing which elim­i­nates con­den­sa­tion and water droplets and also it comes with a 10 year war­ranty against yellowing.

The appli­ca­tions for poly­car­bon­ate are end­less, per­fect for any home improve­ment project like patio cov­ers, car­ports, deck cov­ers, hor­ti­cul­tural green­houses, and so much more.
