Polycarbonate panels offer high transparency, excellent impact resistance, lightweight construction, UV protection, and outstanding thermal stability, making them suitable for various applications.

Polycarbonate panels are widely used in building curtainwall system, skylights system, greenhouses, signage, protective covers, acoustic barriers, and industrial safety solutions.

Yes, it is highly recommended.

Panelwell's products are designed as a complete system to ensure the best possible installation. Using the full system (panels, closure strips, fasteners, etc.) minimizes potential issues and ensures the product warranty will be honored.

Not always—this depends on the specific product and installation conditions.

For Panelwell’s U-Connection Panels and Interlocking Panels, pre-drilling is not required during installation. These panels are designed for ease of use while maintaining excellent functionality, including 100% waterproof performance, ensuring long-lasting durability without the need for additional preparation steps.

It can be difficult to determine the quality of polycarbonate sheets just by appearance. While all sheets may look good when newly produced, poor-quality sheets will start to discolor or break after just 1–2 years of sun exposure. In contrast, Panelwell polycarbonate sheets are guaranteed to last 15 years without yellowing or breaking. Here are some key points to consider when assessing sheet quality:

1. Appearance: The sheets should be as clear as possible.

2. Strength: The material should be as strong as possible.

3. UV Coating: The UV coating should have a blue tint. The more distinct the blue color, the better the UV protection.

Easily. 

You can use a circular saw with a very fine blade, such as one designed for cutting plywood, or a jigsaw. 

For smoother results, it often helps to cut multiple sheets at once to reduce vibration. If you are using a toothed circular saw blade, you may achieve better results by running the blade backward. 

Alternatively, you can cut the sheets by hand using tin snips or a utility knife with care. For more detailed instructions, please refer to our product manuals.

Store the sheets in a protected, shaded, and well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight and strong winds. If outdoor temporary storage is necessary, cover the sheets with an opaque protective film, avoiding PVC films or any heat-absorbing materials.

Important Note: The surface protective films on the sheets are very sensitive to heat and direct sunlight. Exposure to excessive heat or direct sunlight before removing the protective film can cause it to stick to the sheet, making it extremely difficult to remove.

Polyethylene surface films are applied to some sheets to protect them from dirt and scratches and to provide important information for the installer and end customer. These films often indicate which side of the sheet is UV protected and should face outward when installed.

It is recommended to peel off the protective films only after installation. If this is not possible and you need to remove the film before installation, make sure to mark the UV-protected side clearly to avoid incorrect installation.

Important Note: The surface protective films are sensitive to heat and direct sunlight. Prolonged exposure before removing them can cause the film to stick to the sheet surface, making it extremely difficult to remove.

Yes. 

The sheets can be cold-curved and used for arched designs, as long as the relevant Panelwell specifications for the minimum radius in cold curving are followed. Solid sheets can be cold-curved in any direction. Corrugated sheets can be curved lengthwise, following the corrugations. Multi-wall sheets can also be curved lengthwise, so that the ribs curve as well. However, curving across the ribs is not recommended.

Yes. 

All plastic materials are flammable to some extent and can catch fire when exposed to an external flame. Polycarbonate sheets have an ignition temperature of 490°C (915°F), while PVC sheets ignite at 391°C (736°F). 

Both materials are self-extinguishing, meaning the fire will subside once the external flame source is removed. Compared to polycarbonate, acrylic sheets are more flammable.

Yes. 

Plastic sheets expand when heated and contract when cooled. As engineering plastics, polycarbonate (PC) have a relatively lower rate of expansion and contraction compared to other plastics, but changes in dimensions still need to be considered. To accommodate this, use enlarged screw holes for corrugated sheets and aluminum profiles for multi-wall and solid sheets. 

Always follow the instructions provided in the Panelwell installation guide.
