VULCAN Ultra-Thin Solid FLAT Polycarbonate sheet
VULCAN Valuview Ultra-Thin SOLID Flat polycarbonate sheets have visible light transmission rates identical to, acrylic, PMMA, glass among other clear glazing materials, and allows maximum visible and solar light transmission. Different colors can be achieved by simply adding color master-batches, which creates a whole new atmosphere to the covered area.
New for the year 2021, and manufactured on our brand new thin sheet dedicated Breyer production line, which is of course, also enclosed in a state of the art ISO class clean room. This translates to VULCAN Valuview Ultra-Thin SOLID Flat sheets with an extra smooth, flat, bubble free surface, superior physical strength, and physical properties.
Maintaining these physical properties is extremely important, especially when the sheets are being thermoformed or vacuum-formed into shape, and require additional post processing such as painting or assembly.
For example, Ultra-Thin sheets can be formed into polycarbonate face shields where the field of vision has to be clear and without distortion, RC (remote controlled) car shells, or protective covers or protection cases for consumer electronics such as watches or mobile devices.

Product Overview
VALUVIEW Series
VULCAN Valuview Series is targeted towards projects seeking optimal price versus value.
VULCAN Valuview come in 6 standard colors and fully customizable in size and length to meet your requirements. Special colors can also be produced upon request.
Currently, Valuview Ultra-Thin Solid Flat sheets is offered in clear, with its transparent, high visible light and solar transmission identical to standard clear glass, but at almost half the weight and 250 times its strength. Polycarbonate is also shatterproof, a property that is unseen on other clear glazing materials.
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 Avient 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 polycarbonate sheets use only 100% Virgin Covestro UV stabilizer included master-batch.
UV Resistant Coating
Co-extruded with the Base Material, the Avient CESA Light UV and Light Stabilizers blocks harmful UV rays from 280~400nm. With co-extruded UV protection, VULCAN Polycarbonate sheets last 10 years or more.
Production Method
Co-Extrusion ensures evenly spread, evenly thick base material and UV coating.
Clean Room Manufacturing
VULCAN Sheets are produced in ISO Class 7 (FED STD 209E equivalent Class 10,000) clean room to ensure an impeccable quality.
Light Transmission Rates
Projects which requires direct light projection
• Valuview Clear: 88%
Projects which requires reduced light projection
• Valuview Blue: 40%
• Valuview Green: 40%
• Valuview Grey: 26%
• Valuview Bronze: 25%*
• Valuview Opal: 20%*
*Custom light transmissions are available, and subject to minimum order quantity.
