Polycarbonate Sheets for Vertical Glazing: Partition wall, Room divider, curtain wall
Why Polycarbonate for Vertical Glazing?
Polycarbonate sheets are becoming a popular choice for vertical glazing due to their strength, light transmission, light weight, and energy efficiency. Whether you need clear solid polycarbonate for full transparency or translucent multiwall sheets for privacy with diffused light, polycarbonate offers an ideal balance of aesthetics, insulation, and durability.
Perfect for applications such as curtain walls, facades, office partitions, sports halls, plant rooms, and warehouse glazing, polycarbonate is a lightweight yet impact-resistant alternative to glass, making it suitable for both residential and commercial projects.
Types of Polycarbonate for Vertical Glazing
Polycarbonate sheets come in two primary variations for vertical applications:
1. Solid Polycarbonate partion wall
- Ideal for areas where maximum transparency is required
- Glass-clear finish or Frosted polycarbonate for privacy
- Highly impact-resistant, making it a great alternative to glass
- Commonly used for side screens, office partitions, and safety glazing
2. Multiwall Polycarbonate Vertical Glazing (Translucent partition)
- Provides diffused light transmission while ensuring privacy
- Features internal walls within the sheet structure, more rigid and creating soft, evenly distributed light
- Excellent thermal insulation, reducing energy costs
- Used as room divider, portable partition, sports halls, and curtain wall, Ribbon windows
Applications of Polycarbonate Vertical Glazing
1. Office Partitions & Dividers
Polycarbonate office partitions and dividers allow businesses to create flexible workspaces. They help:
✔ Divide office spaces efficiently without blocking natural light
✔ Reduce noise levels in open-plan areas
✔ Enhance privacy while maintaining a modern aesthetic
✔ Create waiting areas, break rooms, and semi-private work zones
2. Curtain Walls & Facades
Polycarbonate is a great material for continuous facades, ribbon windows, and exterior wall systems. Its lightweight nature reduces structural load while providing high impact resistance compared to traditional glass.
3. Warehouse partition wall, Industrial partitions
In large facilities like warehouses and sports halls, polycarbonate sheets help:
✔ Maximize natural light, reducing the need for artificial lighting
✔ Ensure privacy, while allowing visibility when required
✔ Enhance durability, as polycarbonate is virtually unbreakable
4. Weather screen
Polycarbonate sheets are often used in patio covers, canopy sides, and windbreak panels to create a weather-resistant barrier. Structural glazing bar systems or aluminum-framed panels ensure easy installation.
Key Benefits of Polycarbonate for Vertical Glazing
✔ Unbreakable Strength – 250 times stronger than glass, making it ideal for impact-prone areas
✔ Lightweight & Easy Installation – Reduces labor and structural support requirements
✔ Thermal Insulation – Multiwall polycarbonate achieves insulation values up to U=0.5 W/m²K
✔ Sound Insulation – Reduces noise with soundproofing values of up to 40dB
✔ UV & Weather Resistance – Designed for long-term outdoor durability without yellowing
✔ Customizable Light Transmission – Choose from clear, translucent, or tinted options for varying levels of privacy and brightness
✔ Cost-Effective – More affordable than glass, with lower maintenance costs
