PVC Corrugated Sheeting – Features & Benefits
PVC Corrugated Sheeting is most commonly used for roofing on outdoor structures such as greenhouses, carports, gazebos, and covered walkways. However, it can also be used for siding and cladding, and is mostly used in the agriculture, construction, and DIY industries.
We supply PVC Corrugated Sheets from the Mistral range from STORM, a UK-based manufacturer that offers a large range of high-quality building products.
Features & Benefits of PVC Corrugated Sheeting
PVC Corrugated Sheeting is clear, offering a high optical clarity, light transmission of 76%. This makes it a perfect option for buildings or structures that will benefit from lots of natural sunlight, like greenhouses. They also hold a U-value of 5.7 W/m2 at 1mm thickness, meaning that they retain a similar amount of heat to a single glazed window.
One of the main benefits of these Corrugated Sheets is that they can be used in a wide variety of applications – because they can be easily cut to the exact length needed, they can be used for any job, large or small! These can include:
- Carports
- Porches
- Garden sheds
- Greenhouses
- Lean-to extensions
Our Corrugated Sheets are highly durable, meaning that there will be less need for replacement sheeting over time. They are resistant to chemicals, weather, and UV, so they can withstand almost anything from high winds to hot sun rays.
They have also been independently tested for fire performance, and hold a BS1-d0 classification. This means that, in the event of a fire, these PVC Sheets will provide little or no contribution to the fire.
How do I Install PVC Corrugated Sheeting?
It’s really important to consider the temperatures that PVC Corrugated Sheets can withstand. While they can be used for a range of applications, Corrugated Sheets should not be used in environments where temperatures exceed 60°C or fall below -20°C.
