FAQ
What are polycarbonate awnings?
Polycarbonate awnings are strong, transparent, or tinted roofing awnings made from high-impact polycarbonate sheets. They are ideal for homes and businesses because they provide protection from rain and UV rays while still allowing natural light through.
Are polycarbonate awnings strong enough for Gauteng weather?
Yes, solid polycarbonate awnings are designed to handle heavy rain, strong sun, hail, and wind. Solid polycarbonate is extremely impact-resistant, making it one of the most durable materials for outdoor awnings and patio covers in South Africa.
Do polycarbonate awnings block UV rays?
Yes, high-quality polycarbonate sheets used for awning installation block harmful UV rays while still allowing natural light. This makes them perfect for protecting patios, walkways, and entrances without making the space dark.
Do polycarbonate awnings turn yellow or fade over time?
Modern UV-protected polycarbonate used in outdoor awnings is designed to resist yellowing and discolouration. With proper installation and minimal maintenance, the material stays clear or tinted for many years.

Polycarbonate awnings are a popular choice for both residential and commercial buildings. They are made from polycarbonate sheets, a durable and lightweight material known for its high impact resistance and transparency.
Here is some information about polycarbonate awnings:
Material: Polycarbonate awnings are constructed using polycarbonate sheets, which are thermoplastic materials known for their strength and durability. Polycarbonate is resistant to impacts, shattering and UV radiation.
Transparency: Polycarbonate awnings are available in various levels of transparency. Clear polycarbonate sheets allow maximum natural light to pass through, while tinted or coloured options provide shade and privacy.
Durability: Polycarbonate awnings are exceptionally durable and can withstand extreme weather conditions, including rain and strong winds. They are also resistant to yellowing, warping and fading caused by prolonged exposure to sunlight.
Lightweight: Polycarbonate sheets are lightweight, making them easier to handle and install compared to other materials. This lightweight nature also reduces the load on the supporting structure.
UV Protection: Polycarbonate sheets used in awnings are typically coated with a UV protective layer. This coating helps block harmful UV rays, protecting you and your outdoor furniture from sun damage.
Design and Customization: Polycarbonate awnings come in various shapes, sizes and styles to suit different architectural designs and preferences. They can be customized to fit specific dimensions and can be curved, flat or dome shaped.
Energy Efficiency: Polycarbonate awnings provide shade and reduce heat gain, making them energy efficient. By blocking direct sunlight from entering the space, they help keep the interior cooler, reducing the need for air conditioning and saving on energy costs.
Maintenance: Polycarbonate awnings require minimal maintenance. Periodic cleaning with mild soap and water is usually sufficient to remove dirt and debris. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or rough materials that could scratch or damage the surface.
Installation: Polycarbonate awnings can be installed as stationary structures. The installation process involves securing the polycarbonate sheets to a supporting frame, which is typically made of PVC, aluminium or steel.
Applications: Polycarbonate awnings are commonly used in residential homes, commercial buildings, patios, walkways and entrances. They provide shade and protection from the sun and rain while allowing natural light to pass through.
