MULTICLEAR SOLAR CONTROL GREY, WHITE AND SG (silica green)

With MULTICLEAR® SOLAR CONTROL GREY, WHITE and SG (Silica Green), Arla Plast introduces three new products to its well-established high-quality extruded multiwall sheet range. Both give designers and specifiers increased versatility when choosing polycarbonate multiwall sheets for light transparency and solar control.

The addition of heat-reflective pigment to SOLAR CONTROL GREY to the multiwall sheet provides a completely new look and serves as a cost-effective alternative to the infrared-reflective pigment used in SOLAR CONTROL SG. Unlike most other sheets that can only be treated on one side, our both products can be used for two-sided UV protection applications. The SOLAR CONTROL WHITE is based on customer request for an opal to white surface appearance and this concept is one side UV as the solar control pigment is only on one side.
