What is the Polycarbonate Roof?
Polycarbonate roofing is a practical, cost-effective way to shelter outdoor spaces while keeping them bright. Polycarbonate sheets are lightweight yet highly impact-resistant, and UV-protected sheets block harmful ultraviolet rays while allowing daylight through.
Clear, tinted and opal (diffused) options let you choose how much light and heat you want. Tinted and heat-reflective sheets are recommended for west-facing areas in Singapore, where afternoon sun can be intense.
We install polycarbonate on rust-free powder-coated aluminium trellis frames, with properly designed falls, gutters and downpipes. Polycarbonate roofs are popular for backyards, laundry areas, side passages, walkways, window awnings and car porches.

Polycarbonate Roof FAQs
Does polycarbonate roof turn yellow?
Low-grade sheets can yellow over time. We use UV-protected polycarbonate designed to resist yellowing and brittleness under tropical sun.
Is polycarbonate roof hot in Singapore?
Clear polycarbonate lets in more heat. For sunny or west-facing spaces, tinted or heat-reflective sheets significantly reduce heat and glare.
How do I clean a polycarbonate roof?
Rinse with water and a soft brush or sponge with mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners and high-pressure jets, which can scratch the surface.
