How to choose a better quality polycarbonate awning?

Polycarbonate awning is not durable? You won’t choose polycarbonate board. The quality of polycarbonate board depends on the type of material used in the manufacturing process. Usually, manufacturers use these two types of materials to produce polycarbonate board: new raw materials and recycled materials. How do we distinguish the quality of polycarbonate board? Come and have a look with Stable Awning！

1. Look at the transparency. Under the same thickness, the transmittance of high-quality polycarbonate plate is about 94%. The lower the transparency, the more the return material increases. The polycarbonate plate made of recycled materials has a yellow surface when viewed in the sun, while the polycarbonate plate made of new raw materials is clear and bright.

2. In the bending test of polycarbonate plate, low-quality materials can only be bent about 2-3 times, and high-quality polycarbonate plate can be bent more than 15 times. Check the cross section of polycarbonate sheet. High quality sheet piles are vertical and uniform in thickness.

3. Whether the surface of polycarbonate plate is coated with UV coating. UV has a strong destructive force on the plate, which will destroy the molecular structure of the plate and cause the aging of the plate. The UV coating can prevent the aging of the plate surface.

To sum up, the high-quality polycarbonate board awning has two standards: new material and UV coating on the surface of the board. For more information about polycarbonate board awning, you can pay attention to Chengbao outdoor awning.
