As an industry leader, Stabilit America ensures every panel meets strict quality and durability standards. Beyond providing unmatched resilience, our corrugated polycarbonate roof panels solutions reduce construction system costs and support energy efficiency by maximizing natural daylight. Whether you’re an architect, contractor, or homeowner, choosing our roofing panels means gaining a trusted partner for projects that demand both beauty and performance.
How long does corrugated polycarbonate roofing last?
Corrugated polycarbonate roof panels can last 10 to 20 years, depending on exposure and maintenance. Stabilit America panels include a 10-year warranty against yellowing and a 5-year warranty for hail resistance, ensuring long-lasting performance.
What is the difference between polycarbonate and corrugated?
Polycarbonate refers to the material, while “corrugated” describes the panel’s ribbed structure. Corrugated polycarbonate roof panels combine the strength and transparency of polycarbonate with the added structural benefits of corrugation, making them more resistant to impact and environmental stress.
What are the disadvantages of polycarbonate roofing sheets?
While highly durable and resistant, polycarbonate roofing sheets may scratch more easily than glass and can expand under temperature changes if not properly installed. However, their lightweight strength and UV protection outweigh these minor drawbacks for most applications.
