What is a polycarbonate roof ?
A polycarbonate roof consists of light-transmitting sheets designed for intensive outdoor use. The material combines light weight with very high impact resistance. This strength allows for large spans without the need for heavy beams or additional columns. Polycarbonate filters out harsh sunlight and diffuses the light evenly across your conservatory. This keeps the temperature more comfortable on sunny days. The sheets offer reliable protection against rain, hail and changing weather conditions. You’ll enjoy everyday comfort, reduced maintenance and a roof that retains its quality for years to come.

Advantages of a canopy with a polycarbonate roof
A canopy with a polycarbonate roof uses translucent plastic sheets that have been specially developed for outdoor use. Polycarbonate combines low weight with high impact resistance and can withstand prolonged stress without any problems. The material allows plenty of daylight through, but diffuses the light more gently than glass. Thanks to its low heat transmittance, less solar heat penetrates, meaning the space heats up less quickly. You are sheltered from rain, hail and changing weather conditions, whilst the open character of the space is retained. The low-maintenance material ensures everyday comfort and carefree enjoyment of the outdoors.
Polycarbonate roofing combined with bespoke solutions
With a bespoke polycarbonate canopy, you decide on the dimensions, positioning and appearance. The structure is tailored to your home and garden, ensuring the canopy becomes a natural part of the whole. Optionally, the canopy can be fitted with sliding panels or sun blinds, maintaining a balance between shelter and openness. Every design is based on your preferences and how you intend to use the space.
Durable materials and robust construction
Polycarbonate is combined with a strong aluminium support structure that ensures stability and longevity. This construction supports the roof evenly and retains its shape in the face of wind and temperature fluctuations. Aluminium does not rust and withstands prolonged exposure to rain and sun. The lightweight polycarbonate sheets place minimal strain on the structure and facilitate larger spans. This allows for design freedom without the need for additional posts or heavy beams. The joints between the roof panels and the structural members fit precisely, preventing stress. As a result, the canopy remains stable and quiet during daily use. Together, the materials and structure ensure a serene appearance and lasting comfort.
