Polycarbonate Multiwall / Hollow Sheets

Multiwall Sheets Twinwall (2 wall, Box Type)

SABIN® Multiwall Sheets is an aesthetically pleasing twin wall extruded multiwall polycarbonate sheet which offers higher light transmission products with lower weight for handling and transportation.

SABIN® Twinwall is transparent and translucent with both side UV protected sheet. Standard colours are clear, opal and bronze. Available in thicknesses of 4, 6, 8 and 10 mm.

Knife cutting operation is used both online and offline to avoid saw dust.

SABIN® Twinwall has a 10 year limited warranty against discolouration, loss of impact strength and light transmission due to weathering.

Excellent fire performance complying requirements to EN 13501-1 (EUROPEAN BUILDING STD). In case of fire, the sheet will melt and allow venting where heat and smoke will be let out and therefore reduce the growth of fire by flame spread.

SABIN® TWINWALL BENEFITS:

  • High light transmission
  • Excellent bending radius
  • Both side UV protection
  • Light weight - simple handling and installation

APPLICATION AREAS:

Building industry – roofing, cladding, sidewalls, conservatories, domes, skylights, sheds, car ports, smoke vents, swimming pool covers, suspended ceilings, glasshouses, shopping centre roofing, railway/metro station, stadium roofing and partitions. Lighting/packaging lamp optics and neon signs boxes, pallet shields, protective covers for fragile items. Advertising illuminated signs and advertising panels. Agriculture greenhouses, lorry/ tractor ports and farm/barn buildings.

Multiwall sheets (5 wall, X type)

SABIN® Multiwall X-Type is a range of 5 wall extruded polycarbonate sheet specifically designed to offer increased stiffness allowing cost saving by using less glazing bars for installations hence increased light transmittance.

SABIN® Multiwall X-Type is transparent and translucent with both side UV protection (also available without UV protection). Standard colours are clear, opal and bronze. Available in thicknesses 16 and 20mm.

Knife cutting operation is used both online and offline to avoid saw dust.

SABIN® Multiwall X-Type has a 10 year limited warranty against discolouration, loss of impact strength and light transmission due to weathering.

EXCELLENT FIRE PERFORMANCE complying requirements to EN 13501-1 (EUROPEAN BUILDING STD). In case of fire, the sheet will melt and allow venting where heat and smoke will be let out and therefore reduce the growth of fire by flame spread.

SABIN® MULTIWALL X-TYPE BENEFITS:

  • High light transmission
  • Excellent bending radius
  • Cross structure offering greater stiffness
  • Good thermal insulation

APPLICATION AREAS:

Building industry – roofing, cladding, sidewalls, conservatories, domes, skylights, sheds, car ports, smoke vents, swimming pool covers, suspended ceilings, glasshouses, shopping centre roofing, railway/metro station, stadia roofing and partitions. Lighting/packaging lamp optics and neon signs boxes, pallet shields, protective covers for fragile items. Advertising illuminated signs and advertising panels. Agriculture greenhouses, lorry/ tractor ports and farm/barn buildings.
