Re: Where do your teams purchase your polycarbonate?

While we purchase sheet polycarbonate for mounting electronics, etc, we also use multiwall polycarbonate for very lightweight, tough armor plate and billboard area. We order 4x8 sheets of 6mm multiwall. We tell eplastics.com to cut it into 2'x4' sections, and that really cuts down on shipping costs.
