Pick Polycarbonate Panels for Your Building Choice

Building materials have come a long way. The customer of today expects to live and work in a structure that conforms to energy regulations, remains comfortable and dry inside no matter what kind of weather is taking place outside, delivers a level of efficiency that translates into savings in the budget, and is attractive as well. That might sound like a lot to ask for, but the industry has advanced to an exciting performance level where companies thrive on providing the kind of customer satisfaction that keeps clients coming back. The evolution of quality in building materials is particularly impressive when we consider the way polycarbonate panels have become the go-to choice for architects who want to work with a material that’s strong, tough, and attractive. Its durability and high-impact resistance make it ideal for usage in construction, with the added appeal of its transparency to visible light, which gives it much better light transmission than glass does. Polycarbonate panels are so popular that they are replacing other traditional building materials.

Polycarbonate Panels Protect Insulation with Ventilation
The exterior of a building is the initial line of defense against the elements that can weaken a structure’s interior. Danpal facades utilize natural ventilation that creates an air gap so that, behind the panels, convective motion is constantly taking place. The insulation stays dry and maintains its energy efficiency.
Polycarbonate Panels are Better than Glass
We’ve already told you that our polycarbonate panels are becoming more popular than traditional building materials, but the competition between our panels and glass has really revolutionized the building market and it’s no wonder. Both glass and polycarbonate are equally translucent, but glass is twice as heavy as our panels. Polycarbonate wins out in the strength competition as well: polycarbonate sheeting and paneling are approximately 200 times stronger than standard glass, and 20 times stronger than tempered glass. But because of the significantly lighter weight, polycarbonate panels are so much easier to transport and to install.
Cost-Effective, Energy-Efficient Polycarbonate Panels
A building material like polycarbonate easily becomes the favorite for architects because it allows them to design a building that meets all the requirements of the client without sacrificing affordability. No one wants to spend any more on their utility bills than they have to, and polycarbonate panels help to economize because they’re high-quality insulators. Energy isn’t wasted and it doesn’t escape out of the building, so the building occupants benefit from the savings of only paying for energy that they’re actually using.
Polycarbonate Panels Deliver Satisfaction
The earliest versions of polycarbonate weren’t very popular because they cost too much and they didn’t deliver the energy efficiency of today’s model. Back then, the building industry used toughened glass and polyethylene membrane, but Danpal designers, benefitting from the company’s years of experience and dedication to research, led the way in the development of polycarbonate panels that blend high-impact strength, anti-drop, frame resistance, UV protection, transmission of light, and visual appeal.
