2 sided abrasion resistant coating
Being resistant to marks, scratching and hazing, this sheet maintains its clarity and is far more resilient to surface abuse than standard grade polycarbonate sheet.
Chemical protection
PLASIAX™ DIAMOND provides an ‘easy clean’ solution for surfaces mistreated with graffiti, marker pen and other substances and is also resilient to a wide range of cleaning materials that are not applicable to standard grade sheet.
Strength and Impact Resistant
As an example, PLASIAX™ DIAMOND has 250 times the impact resistance of glass and is therefore a much superior product in terms of security. It is also backed by a 10 year limited breakages warranty.
Light Weight
Polycarbonate is less than half the weight of glass (SG 1.2) saving cost of transportation, time of installation and reduced loadings on glazing framework and structures.
Weather and UV Resistant
This product comes with a 5 year limited warranty against UV discolouration and yellowing due to the hard coating enhancing its weatherability.
Heat resistance and flammability
PLASIAX™ DIAMOND has excellent temperature stability with no loss of property from -40ºC to 130ºC making it secure for most locations around the globe. It complies with BS476 part 7 with a class 1Y rating and has the classification of a self-extinguishing product.
Recyclable
Polycarbonate is an entirely recyclable material.
Workability
As with all polycarbonate sheet the product is easy and safe to fabricate using a variety of simple processes.
