Permanent polycarbonate terrace cladding is a solution for those who want to shield a terrace, pergola, gazebo or balcony from wind and precipitation, while still retaining access to daylight. The enclosure is made of polycarbonate panels permanently mounted in the frame - no sliding elements and no mechanics.
It is a proposal particularly worth considering where functional space protection, simplicity of use and a reasonable budget are priorities. Permanent polycarbonate cladding is also often chosen for balconies, where the installation of glass is sometimes technically difficult or not cost-effective.
Polycarbonate works well not only on terrace canopies. It is also used as sidewalls in many types of spaces:
Polycarbonate is effective in reducing wind and rainfall while allowing light to pass through. Depending on the colour chosen, it can also increase the sense of privacy, which is important especially in urban developments.
In our projects we use 10 mm thick cellular polycarbonate, mounted vertically in a sturdy frame.

Construction and finishing:
Each development is made to measure, taking into account the construction of the terrace, pergola or balcony.
Polycarbonate side panels are a good choice if you want protection from wind and rain, but do not need the ability to open up the walls or the full transparency that glass offers. Polycarbonate allows light to pass through, but - unlike glass - can partially restrict visibility, which is an advantage for many users, especially on balconies and in dense buildings.
If maximum visibility into the garden is key, a better option would be to fixed glazing on the terrace. If, on the other hand, you want to regulate light and air flow, it is worth considering aluminium blinds or sliding systems.
We make each permanent polycarbonate terrace enclosure to size and install it with our own team. We advise on the choice of colour, type of frame and method of installation so that the enclosure is durable, aesthetically pleasing and tailored to your space.
In addition to the fixed polycarbonate terrace cladding, we also offer other side building solutions. Our offer includes fixed glazing on the terrace, as well as permanent installation of aluminium louvres. For those who need more flexibility, we also offer sliding polycarbonate terrace cladding.
During the quotation, we help to select the solution best suited to the technical conditions and the use of the space.

Polycarbonate cladding lets light through, but is not fully transparent like glass. Depending on the colour, it can restrict visibility, which increases privacy. While glass provides maximum transparency and a view of the surroundings, polycarbonate is more often chosen where a functional cover and lower investment cost are important.
Yes. Fixed polycarbonate cladding works very well on balconies and loggias. It is visually lighter than glass, provides protection from wind and rain and allows access to daylight. It is also often easier to fit into an existing balcony structure.
Polycarbonate cladding is not an anti-burglary system. It provides a physical and visual barrier, but its main purpose is to protect against the weather, not to secure property. If increased security is required, we recommend consulting other solutions or additional security features.
Polycarbonate should be cleaned with a soft cloth or sponge and lukewarm water with mild detergent. Do not use aggressive chemicals, solvents or rough sponges, which may damage the surface. Regular cleaning maintains the aesthetic appearance of the fitting for a long time.
Yes, permanent polycarbonate cladding can be used all year round as a side screen. However, please note that it is not as thermally insulating as a conservatory.
