Description

Trimdek Clear Roof Polycarbonate Sheeting | Vulcan Corrugated PC panels

VULCAN TRIMDEK (190/27) polycarbonate sheet

VULCAN TRIMDEK polycarbonate sheet matches closely to the TRIMDEK metal roofing profile used in Taiwan and most Asian countries.

The four 131mm valleys in between crests each have three additional low profile corrugations specially designed for better drainage.

For example, on polycarbonate TRIMDEK clear roof sheeting, water, dust and all types of debris tend to accumulate and with time, can diminish the overall performance of the covered area, not to mention the ruined aesthetics when seen from the outside.

The tall and angular crest corrugations combined with additional shorter crests at the valleys creates a very industrialized look, making TRIMDEK corrugated profile a very popular choice when building factories or warehouse facilities.

Product Overview

Product Overview

Introducing VALUVIEW Series

VULCAN Valuview Series is targeted towards projects seeking optimal price versus value.

VULCAN Valuview Series comes in 6 standard colors and is fully customizable in size and length to meet your requirements. Special colors can also be produced upon request.

For example, ROMA Valuview clear sheets is the most popular of all the clear corrugated roofing sheets we offer, with its transparency offering high visible light and solar transmission identical to standard clear glass, but at almost half the weight and 250 times its strength.

All VULCAN polycarbonate sheets carrying the Valuview name use 100% Virgin UV stabilized Covestro resin. As an added option, sheets can be co-extruded with Clariant CESA-Light UV and Light Stabilizers for extended lifespan and added protection against light transmission losses and yellowing caused by excessive exposure to solar radiation.

Product Strengths

Base Material

VULCAN TRIMDEK clear roof sheeting use only 100% Virgin Covestro UV stabilizer included master-batch.

UV Resistant Coating

Co-extruded with the Base Material, the Clariant CESA Light UV and Light Stabilizers blocks harmful UV rays from 280~400nm. With co-extruded UV protection, VULCAN TRIMDEK clear roof sheeting last 10 years or more.

Production Method

Co-Extrusion ensures evenly spread, evenly thick base material and UV coating.

Clean Room Manufacturing

VULCAN TRIMDEK clear roof sheeting are produced in ISO Class 7 (FED STD 209E equivalent Class 10,000) clean room to ensure impeccable quality.
