Glass awning or polycarbonate awning

December 12,2022

In modern life, PC board canopy and glass canopy are widely used for sun shading and rain shelter.

For many people, it is difficult to choose which of these two types of awnings? What's the difference between these two kinds of awnings? What are their characteristics? Many problems lie ahead of us.

1-1

When selecting the canopy, its use safety must be considered, and safety is a problem worthy of attention.

Our first reaction when we heard "glass" was fragile and dangerous. At first, the glass awning will give people a transparent feeling. When it is windy, rainy and exposed to the sun, the glass canopy is not very firm, and it will become easy to crack, heavy, not insulated, and may fall off, which is not safe for people and vehicles.

The PC board awning is different from the glass canopy. Compared with other canopies, PC board canopies have the advantages of good lighting performance, long service life, beautiful appearance, low noise, strong impact resistance, etc.

The specific analysis is as follows:

Daylighting performance: PC board canopy is made of highly transparent 2mm - 8mm PC board, with a light transmittance of more than 85% and high light transmittance. Due to the ultraviolet coating on the surface, it has anti ultraviolet function. Traditional plastic awnings are made of low-quality plastic, most of which are light tight.
Service life: PC board is made of engineering plastics, with a warranty period of more than 10 years. The traditional plastic canopy has been used for 1 year, with various cracks and holes. If the typhoon passes, it will basically collapse.
Impact resistance: If something falls on the PC board, the PC board roof will not be damaged, because the PC board and bulletproof glass are made of the same raw materials, and the glass canopy will break and hurt people.
Beautiful and sound insulation: PC board is highly transparent, easy to install, beautiful and firm in appearance. The PC board can be bent freely, which greatly reduces the noise.
