SPECIAL LAYERED POLYCARBONATE SHEETS

PolyShade – High Shading Properties, sheets thicknesses available: 6, 8, 10, 16 mm

PolyShade Selective Layer

The PolyShade layer of polycarbonate structured sheets produces a special metallic shading effect. A perfect solution for hot climate areas. The PolyShade coating contains a special pigment that adds metallic lustre to the surface and provides an optimal level of solar radiation reflection to prevent overheating of a room. The PolyShade-coated sheets are manufactured with different colors: silver, metallic blue and metallic green; and of different thickness, ranging from 8 to 16 mm.

Innovative new technology uses aluminium powder to reflect away the entire solar spectrum range.

• Effectively blocks solar heat
• Extra-high Shading Coefficient, superior to other aluminium-coated sheets.
• Silver metallic surface doesn’t distort interior colors, yet conceals dust
• Excellent shading coefficient
• Highly attractive metallic surface – only product of its kind which is suitable for hot climates
• Rigid sheet structure provides extra strength under wind and snow loads. To see sheet performance under loads, go to “Support / Wind Load Charts”.
• Recommended Uses: Transportation stations, coverings for open markets, parking enclosures, airports, internal partitions, exhibitions and displays.

Polygal PolyShade Sheets feature a UV protective layer to protect against yellowing, and are covered by a 10 Year Warranty against breakage and yellowing (6 mm and higher).

Rainbow – Decorative Layer, sheets thickness available: 8 mm

Rainbow

Harmony in nature can be found in unique combinations of opposites – heat and cold, birth and death, cruelty and gentleness, sunshine and rain, and many more; almost everything has two contrasting sides. This is an integral part of nature, and it is exactly this beauty of nature that Polygal is able to offer you with its new product – Rainbow. Special optical affects in Polygal’s Rainbow sheets combine with the angle of the light to change the sheet color (e.g. from red to green), thus the Rainbow sheets by Polygal present a unique harmony that is both dynamic and varied.

Available in 8 mm thick sheets, Rainbow by Polygal is flexible, heat resistant,easy to install, and can be used for a variety of installations such as: bus stops and train stations, shopping malls, screens and partitions, roofing, stage design, display areas, exhibitions and many more.
