4 Applications of Polycarbonate Roofing in Singapore
Polycarbonate is a lightweight thermoplastic material that can endure both low and high temperature. This resilient and functional roofing material is ideal for many applications, but it is not feasible to serve as the full roof of a house.
Polycarbonate roofing is made of synthetic resin manufactured from polymers containing carbonate groups. Polycarbonate roof or sheets are used for many building and constructions tasks that require lightweight roofing or natural sunlight. Below are some of the usage of polycarbonate roofing you can try in Singapore.
Pool Cover
When retractable awning can do wonders as a pool cover, they can totally block the sunlight from entering the pool area which isn’t a good thing when you want to go sunbathing or you simply wish to enjoy the summer sun. Polycarbonate roof often comes in the form of translucent sheet, making it a perfect cover for the pool area. It will perfectly shade the area by filtering excess and harmful UV rays while still allowing a little bit of sunlight to penetrate underneath the roof.
Patio Roofing
We love our patio with a little bit of sunlight! With a polycarbonate roof for your patio, you can let an ample amount of sunshine in to bring a pleasant vibe over your afternoon tea. It is also a good roofing material if you are fond of doing your hobbies in the comfort of your patio. Knitting can be easier with the aid of the morning sun. Likewise, repairing home equipment is also more convenient to do on the patio during the daytime.
Room Observatories
Most of us are starting to get fond of the night sky. Thus, adding skylights on the bedroom roof has become a trend. Aside from reinforced glass, polycarbonate roofing can also be used to make observatories right inside your bedroom! Although this lightweight material isn’t advisable for full roof applications, it can do very well for skylights.
Rooftop Garden and Clothesline
Adding a polycarbonate roof as a shade for the rooftop is also a popular trend nowadays. Since most of us are utilising the rooftop of our houses to dry clothes or for a mini garden, using a shade to filter excessive sun rays is a good house upgrade.
These are just some of the practical applications of polycarbonate roofing, with its translucent nature and relatively lightweight, this roofing material provides an endless option for home and building renovations.
