Corrugated Polycarbonate Roofing Sheets

Corrugated Polycarbonate Roofing Sheets for Patios, Pergolas and Carports

Ampelite Solasafe® corrugated polycarbonate roofing is made for patios, pergolas, carports, verandahs and covered walkways where you want weather protection without shutting out natural light. The familiar corrugated profile pairs neatly with traditional corrugated steel roofing, while blocking 99.9% of harmful UV radiation.

Choose from clear, opal, grey and other available colours, then select the sheet length needed for your project. Sheets are lightweight to handle and available from 1.8m to 8.1m, depending on the colour selected.

Why Choose Corrugated Polycarbonate Roofing?

Corrugated polycarbonate roofing is strong, lightweight and easy to handle compared with many other roofing materials. It is ideal for areas where you want cover from rain while still keeping the space bright and open.

Solasafe® polycarbonate roofing blocks 99.9% of harmful UV radiation, making it suitable for outdoor living areas where sun protection matters. Different colours and light transmission options allow you to choose how much brightness and heat control you want for your project.

Clear, Opal and Grey Polycarbonate Roof Sheet Options

For the standard Solasafe® range, Clear transmits 91% of visible light, Opal 55% and Grey 26%. Choose Clear when maximum daylight is the priority, Opal for a softer level of light, or Grey when you want less brightness beneath the roof.

Also consider the roof direction and the amount of direct sun the area receives. Available colours and sheet lengths can vary, so select your colour above and confirm your required length before ordering.

Cut-to-Length Polycarbonate Roofing Sheets

Ordering cut-to-length polycarbonate roofing sheets helps reduce waste and makes installation easier. This product is available in lengths from 1.8m to 8.1m, with 8.1m being the maximum recommended length due to thermal expansion.

For best results, always allow for thermal movement and follow the recommended fixing and installation guidelines for polycarbonate roof sheeting.

What Can Corrugated Polycarbonate Roofing Be Used For?

Corrugated polycarbonate sheets are suitable for many outdoor roofing applications, including patios, pergolas, carports, verandahs, covered side paths, garden structures and walkways. They are not designed to replace all structural roofing materials, but they are an excellent choice where light transmission and weather cover are both required.

Polycarbonate Roofing FAQs

What is the best polycarbonate roofing for patios?

Corrugated polycarbonate roofing is a popular choice for patios because it is lightweight, strong and allows natural light into the outdoor area. Ampelite Solasafe® also provides 99.9% UV protection, making it suitable for Australian conditions.

Is Solasafe® corrugated polycarbonate roofing covered for hail damage?

Ampelite provides a 10-year warranty against sheet fracture caused by hailstones up to 25 mm in diameter when accompanied by high wind conditions. The sheets must be installed and maintained according to Ampelite’s requirements and AS 1562.3. The warranty applies to domestic use and covers replacement sheet material only, not labour or incidental costs.

What is the difference between clear, opal and grey polycarbonate roofing?

Clear polycarbonate roofing allows the most natural light. Opal gives a softer, diffused light and helps reduce glare. Grey reduces light transmission further and is often chosen for areas where heat and brightness control are important.

Can polycarbonate roofing sheets be cut to length?

Yes. These corrugated polycarbonate roofing sheets are available in lengths from 1.8m to 8.1m. The maximum recommended length is 8.1m due to thermal expansion.

What is the effective cover width of corrugated polycarbonate roofing?

The effective cover width is 760mm. This is the width used when calculating how many sheets are required for roof coverage.

How many corrugated polycarbonate roofing sheets do I need?

To estimate the quantity, divide the roof width by the 760mm effective cover width, then round up to the next whole sheet. Measure sheet length separately along the fall of the roof. Check your quantities and measurements carefully before ordering, as the sheets are cut to your selected length.

Where do you deliver polycarbonate roofing sheets?

We deliver polycarbonate roofing sheets across Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland, ACT and Tasmania, with most orders delivered within 3–7 business days depending on location.
