PLASTICS FOR FABRICATION POLYCARBONATE SHEET Polycarbonate Brett Martin’s range of extruded flat polycarbonate sheets offer ideal solutions for a wide range of applications in construction, fabrication and print & display industries. Durability and design freedom are two of the key features which designers seek when selecting modern materials. Marlon flat polycarbonate sheet offers both, plus many more benefits over traditional glazing and fabrication alternatives. Marlon FS is available in a range of tints including bronze, green, blue opal and grey providing solar control, and with an...

PLASTICS FOR FABRICATION POLYCARBONATE SHEET FLAT POLYCARBONATE SHEET Marlon FS is a premium quality extruded flat polycarbonate sheet which provides 200 times more impact resistance than glass at only half the weight. The sheet is characterised by high optical clarity, light transmission, impact resistance, durability, design flexibility, thermal insulation and fire resistance. Marlon flat polycarbonate sheet offers a superior glazing solution to that of other materials. It’s available in clear to maximise light transmission and a range of tints including bronze, green, blue, opal and grey...

PLASTICS FOR FABRICATION POLYCARBONATE SHEET Strong Adhesion Film A Strong Adhesion Film (SAF) is available for the Marlon FS and Marlon FSX polycarbonate product ranges, specifically aimed at high-end engineering and fabrication projects that require extra protection during repeated processing, including drilling, 3D milling, warm & cold bending, thermoforming and cutting. The polycarbonate sheets that are used for these heavy fabrication projects, often go through different or aggressive mechanical processes before the end product is made. SAF ensures that our polycarbonate sheet...

PLASTICS FOR FABRICATION POLYCARBONATE SHEET ABRASION RESISTANT FLAT POLYCARBONATE SHEET Marlon FS Hard is an extruded polycarbonate flat sheet combined with an abrasion and chemical resistant coating. The highly resilient and abrasion resistant surface coating resists marks and scratches, vandalism, graffiti and physical attack and also withstands contact from a wide range of cleaning agents, organic solvents and corrosive elements. Marlon FS Hard offers a superior toughness to protect those areas where high performance and reliability are essential whilst providing high natural light...

It is a versatile material that offers ease of fabrication and excellent scratch resistance making it suitable for a wide variety of applications including point of sale, poster covers, menu boards, displays, glazing, interior design projects, store fixtures, fabrication and signage. In addition to clear, Marcryl FS acrylic sheet is also available in opal, providing good light diffusion that can be used for dramatic lighting effects,...

PLASTICS FOR FABRICATION ACRYLIC SHEET FLAT ACRYLIC SHEET Marcryl FS is a top quality extruded acrylic sheet with a high gloss finish that offers a combination of excellent optical clarity and weatherability. Marcryl FS is manufactured in a clean production environment ensuring optimum quality. The versatility, ease of fabrication and scratch resistance of Marcryl FS rend it suitable for a wide variety of applications in interior design, point of sale and display, fabrications and building industries. Marcryl FS can be flame polished creating a bright, shiny edge finish. Colours and tints:...

PLASTICS FOR FABRICATION ACRYLIC SHEET Acrylic Fabrication Guidelines SERVICE TEMPERATURE Marcryl FS can be installed in a diversity of applications, with varying temperatures. The material’s mechanical performance is known to remain stable in prolonged service in temperatures ranging from -20 to +80°C. Marcryl FS can be highly stretched at relatively low temperatures. The forming process can occur more slowly, as it is of a rubbery nature and the surface quality of the semi-finished material is largely retained. Prior to pre-drying or thermoforming it is recommended that the protective...
