Product Strengths

Base Material

• 100% Virgin Optical Grade resin from Bayer, providing maximum clarity and lifespan for your sheets.

UV400 Coating

• Optical Grade SD Polyca UV400 coating as used on lenses, glasses, and sunglasses. 99.5% of harmful UV wavelengths between 290nm~400nm are blocked.

LightGuide Technology

• LiteGuide technology softens and disperses light evenly, which suits plants and flowers, which burns when encountering direct sunlight and is best avoided. LiteGuidesheets are also suitable for Signs and Billboards, which provides good aesthetics.

Production Method

• Co-Extrusion ensures evenly spread, evenly thick base material and UV coating. (A chain is only as strong as it’s weakest link.)

High impact resistance

• 250 times the impact strength over glass and 10 times over FRP and Acrylic.

Fire Retardant

• Polycarbonate sheets produced with 100% Virgin material have a melting point of at least 190 degrees Celsius and produce only odorless smoke when burned.

Design Flexibility

• VULCAN Polycarbonate sheets can be tailored with different coatings to provide different light transmission rates and properties. Customers can choose between LiteGuide, Pearly RED, Pearly GREEN, Ti-Lite, and Valuview.

Quality Standards

VULCAN Polycarbonate sheets are produced with the highest of standards available in the industry. We are the first Polycarbonate manufacture in Asia to incorporate clean rooms for all of our extrusion lines. Our latest Breyer Solid Flat sheet machine is installed in a Class 5000 clean room (the maximum number of particles per cubic foot of air of diameter greater or equal to 0.5 µm is 5000).

Machinery

We have a total of 5 co-extrusion lines, 2 for corrugated sheets and 3 for solid sheets. Our machines are imported from Toshiba-Hitachi Japan, Omipa Italy and Breyer Germany. Our co-extrusion machine uses feedblocks from the industry leading EDI (Extrusion Dies Industries) company and controlled by the also industry leading Dynisco company computers.

LiteGuide is specially designed for structures, buildings and greenhouses requiring dispersed and soft lighting. Dispersed lighting eliminates burn on plants, vegetation, animals and even human beings. 

Optical grade UV400 raw material imported from Bayer Germany, which is identical to raw materials used on high-end LED TV panels.  Only one small ray of light is needed to light up the entire sheet, which suits areas with less sunshine or lighting.

VULCAN Polycarbonate Corrugated LiteGuide ROMA sheet is coated with another layer of Optical Grade SD Polyca UV400 resin from Sumitomo Dow Chemicals Japan to block harmful UV rays.

Co-Extrusion Process

Feedblocks: EDI (Extrusion Dies Industries) to ensure even material flow.

Co-extrusion process is fully computer controlled by Dynisco systems.

Impurity leads to less quality, which is why VULCAN Polycarbonate sheets are produced in clean rooms; the cleaner the environment, the cleaner the sheets, and hence a longer lifespan.

Class 5000 Clean Rooms

Optional Plus+ surface treatment provides added light softening properties. (MOQ required)
