As a pioneer in manufacturing and supplying high-quality Polycarbonate roofing sheets in India, Lotus Roofings offers roofing sheets that are highly suitable for swimming pools, walkways, car sheds, and two-wheeler sheds, especially to protect from harsh summers.

 

Polycarbonate Sheets are the most preferred for swimming Pools.

Lotus Polycarbonate sheets have excellent UV protection. This makes them ideal for use in areas that are exposed to direct and harsh sunlight.  This means that they will not crack, yellow, or become brittle over time.

UV-protected polycarbonate sheets are safe for children using swimming pools as they provide a high level of protection from UV radiation that could be harmful to human skin. This is more applicable to children because they have highly sensitive skin. The UV protection provided by polycarbonate sheets helps in blocking harmful UV rays, reducing the risk of sunburn and skin damage.

Additionally, polycarbonate sheets are highly durable and impact-resistant, which means that they are less likely to break or shatter compared to other materials such as glass. This reduces the risk of injury from broken shards of glass in case of any accidental impact.

Furthermore, polycarbonate sheets can be installed with an anti-slip coating, which helps to improve traction and reduce the risk of slips and falls around the swimming pool area.

Finally, polycarbonate sheets are transparent, which means that they allow natural light to pass through. This can help in maintaining visibility around the swimming pool area even though it is covered, reducing risks and increasing safety.

Lotus Polycarbonate sheets are highly durable and can withstand impacts such as extreme wind, heavy rainfall, snow, hail, and others, making them ideal for use in areas with high foot traffic.

Again, Polycarbonate sheets’ transparency allows natural light to pass through, providing good visibility for pedestrians using the walkway.

Polycarbonate sheets are lightweight, easy to install and maintain, making them ideal for use in areas where weight is a concern.

Lotus Polycarbonate sheets are a cost-effective alternative to glass, providing greater value at a lower cost.

Polycarbonate sheets have Design flexibility. They can be easily cut and shaped, allowing for a variety of design options to suit different walkway configurations.

What are the advantages of Polycarbonate?

Toughness

Polycarbonates are tough thermoplastics that can withstand large impact forces and can be used in a myriad of ways. As Polycarbonate is 250 times stronger than glass, it gives much better protection to your assets against theft, etc.

Also, glass can be easily broken and when that happens its pieces can harm you and be potentially dangerous to deal with. Whereas Polycarbonate cannot be easily broken and hence offers much higher safety and protection in comparison.

Polycarbonate is also shatter and scratch-proof, making it perfect for roofing and window glazing.

 

Heat Resistance

Polycarbonate has the ability to resist the heat of up to 250 degrees for long hours, which makes it incredibly energy efficient and a fantastic insulator. Whereas glass can quickly absorb heat and hence is difficult to work with during installation or after service and can get damaged. Lotus Roofings Products have Flame Resistance Test Report and other Certifications.

 

Ultraviolet (UV) Protection

Polycarbonate is exceedingly resistant to UV light, preventing warping or discoloration in the sun. This helps tremendously in protecting the plants grown in Greenhouses. A vast percentage of UV rays can penetrate glass and cause harm to people who are exposed to it.

 

Environment Friendly

Polycarbonate as a highly sustainable material can even be melted down, cooled, and reused – limiting unnecessary waste in landfills.

No scarce timber-based raw material is used in manufacturing Lotus Polycarbonate Sheets and we supply “Green Environmental Products”. It is light in weight making it easy to work with.

 

Lasts Longer

 Polycarbonate is a highly durable, impact-resistant material, which makes it a popular choice for applications where glass would typically break or shatter.

Polycarbonate is often used in applications such as safety glasses, electronic device covers, and bulletproof windows among others which is because, it has high resistance to impact, abrasion, and weathering. While glass tends to damage easily and needs to be replaced very often, polycarbonate has a longer life span cutting down on the cost of replacement.

 

Where is it used?

Polycarbonate sheets are used in unlimited applications, while a few are listed here:

• Conservatories
• Skylights & Covered Walkways
• Industrial Roofings and glazing
• Do-It-Yourself (DIY)
• Displays and signboards
• Swimming pools
• Green Houses

 

Polycarbonates are preferred choice of architects today in construction of buildings as it is well suited for windows to wall panels.

Did you know that Polycarbonate is a high-performing thermoplastic? Yes, it is and that is why it is widely used in the Construction of Buildings, well suited for windows to wall panels. The use of polycarbonate roofing sheets is increasing in places like Tamilnadu, Kerala, Karnataka, Andhra, Telangana and other states due to their durability, versatility and energy-saving properties.

 

Polycarbonate protects you where Glass doesn’t.

Protection during monsoon

Today, a large population live in earthquakes, cyclone, flood, or any other harsh weather condition-prone areas and it is very important to choose building materials that suit these conditions.

Weather is not under our control and will always continue to be a force we have to deal with.

• Lotus Polycarbonate is an ideal material for roofing and cladding applications in areas prone to heavy monsoon rains due to its durability, transparency, and resistance to impact and weathering. Lotus polycarbonate roofing products are completely waterproof.
• Hence, in the coastal regions of Kerala, usage of Polycarbonate sheet is highly prevalent in areas such as Alappuzha, Kochi, Kollam, Thrissur, Kozhikode, Thiruvananthapuram, etc., that often experience incessant rainfall.

 

 Protection from heat and humidity

1. Thermal Insulation: Polycarbonate has a low thermal conductivity, which means, that it does not easily transfer heat. This makes Lotus Multiwall Sheets a good material for insulating against heat.
2. Moisture resistance: Polycarbonate has a low moisture permeability, meaning that it does not easily absorb moisture. This makes it a good choice where protection from humidity is important, such as in greenhouse roofing.
3. UV Protection: Polycarbonate contains a UV stabilizer that protects the material from the harmful effects of ultraviolet radiation.

Also, Polycarbonate is a highly durable material that can withstand a wide range of temperatures, and weather conditions, making it a good choice for outdoor applications. It does not become brittle or break down over time even in high heat or humidity conditions.

 

Easy maintenance
