Allplastics recently supplied a childcare centre on the northern suburbs of Sydney with clear polycarbonate panels which segregated the centre from the neighbourhood.
UV resistant polycarbonate in 9.5mm thickness was chosen due to its toughness – which is 250 times stronger than glass – making it hail-proof and safeguarded against objects that may be thrown at it, such as toys, rocks or pebbles.
Solid polycarbonate sheets are available in various thicknesses ranging from 3mm thick to 12mm. There is MAR resistant or AR2 (protection on both sides) polycarbonate available for table-top use, as this application requires regular wiping and having objects rubbing against it.

Allplastics Engineering recently completed an interesting installation in Sydney’s Central business district. The client required to have transparent panels to fill the openings between the existing structure posts.
9.5mm thick clear polycarbonate UV2 grade was selected due to its outdoor features, exceptional strength and resistance to hail. Frameless fixtures were utilised to maximise the aesthetics. This design allowed the occupants on levels 10 and 11 of the York street building to enjoy the sun and fresh air as well as preventing the risk of using the ledge to climb up.
