What Polycarbonate Is Used For
Polycarbonate is the clear or white rigid sheet for signs that may take a hit: low-mounted panels, parking areas, high-traffic entrances, vandal-prone locations and covers over printed graphics in public spaces. The UV-stabilized sheet resists yellowing outdoors. For illuminated faces, lightboxes and displays mounted out of harm’s way, acrylic sign sheets give a harder, glossier face at a lower cost; our guide to polycarbonate vs acrylic for signs compares the two side by side. For non-illuminated flat panels, see ACM or aluminum. We cut every substrate we sell to size; call 1-800-999-3160 for cut sizes or bulk pricing.

Polycarbonate Sign Sheets FAQ
Is polycarbonate the same as Lexan?
Lexan and TUFFAK are brand names for polycarbonate; TUFFAK SL was formerly sold as Makrolon SL. Our sign-grade polycarbonate is the same type of material, UV-stabilized for outdoor signs.
Polycarbonate or acrylic for outdoor signs?
Polycarbonate for impact and security applications; acrylic for a harder, glossier face where breakage isn't a risk. Both work outdoors; UV-stabilized polycarbonate resists yellowing.
Can you print on polycarbonate sheets?
Yes. Adhesive vinyl, screen printing and direct UV or digital printing all work on sign-grade polycarbonate.
Do you carry 4x8 polycarbonate in 3/16"?
Yes. We stock 4x8 (48" x 96") in both 1/8" and 3/16", white and clear.
