A Robust Choice for Your Outdoor Roof
Multiwall polycarbonate 16 mm is a high-performance roofing material engineered for demanding outdoor structures where durability and sun protection are essential. Its 2500 g/m² weight and X-shape internal structure provide the rigidity needed for long-term performance in your garden.
The bronze tint is a clever addition for anyone looking to soften harsh sunlight. It filters intense radiation to create a cooler, more private atmosphere under your pergola or terrace cover, making your outdoor space much more comfortable during the peak of summer.

Why Choose This Bronze Tint
Standard clear roofing can often lead to excessive heat buildup and uncomfortable glare. By choosing this bronze variant, you effectively diffuse incoming light, which helps keep your patio or walkway shaded and pleasant throughout the day.
Beyond the light control, you get a reliable, UV-protected sheet that resists discoloration and maintains its strength over time. It is a practical, long-lasting upgrade for any semi-private outdoor area.
Installation and Compatibility
These sheets integrate seamlessly with standard aluminium profile systems designed for 16 mm glazing. For a lighter, more cost-effective option, you might consider our 10 mm bronze sheet. Always remember to protect the open ends of the channels with sealing tapes to keep your roof clean and debris-free for years to come.
Important information

- Internal Structure The internal design (channels shape) of the sheets may vary based on stock levels, but the technical specs are identical. We never mix different structures in the same order to ensure a uniform look.
- UV Protection & Installation Polycarbonate sheets must be installed with the UV-protected side facing up (facing the outside) for the protection to work. The UV side is clearly marked on the protective film.
- Handle with Care Handle the sheets carefully to prevent scratches and damage.
- Storage Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Use cases and compatibility
This 16 mm thickness is ideal for demanding roof constructions like pergolas and terrace covers where high thermal insulation and structural rigidity are required for outdoor performance.
If you require maximum light transmission without glare reduction, consider our clear 16 mm panels. For lighter, non-structural applications, thinner sheets may offer a more cost-effective solution.
Ensure your rafter spacing is compatible with 16 mm sheets to support local snow loads. Always protect the open ends of the channels with sealing tapes to prevent debris.
