High-performance structural, multiwall, solid, and translucent polycarbonate solutions engineered specifically for harsh climatic conditions across Istanbul, Ankara, Izmir, and the Anatolian plateau.
A deep technical analysis of extrusion science, polymer purity, and environmental resilience designed for Turkish architects, MEP specifiers, and industrial contractors.
As a global leader in high-performance thermoplastic extrusion, our manufacturing facilities operate exclusively with 100% virgin-grade polycarbonate resin pellets sourced directly from global chemical titans including Sabic (Lexan™) and Covestro (Makrolon®). Unlike budget regional alternatives that dilute resin batches with recycled regrind—causing micro-cracking, early yellowing, and severe loss of tensile strength—our panels guarantee unmatched optical purity, impact resilience, and long-term structural integrity.
Polycarbonate (PC) is a amorphous thermoplastic polymer characterized by high impact strength ($E = 2.2-2.4\text{ GPa}$ elastic modulus), high thermal distortion temperatures ($135^\circ\text{C}$ under load), and inherent flame retardancy. When extruded through our state-of-the-art Omipa multi-layer co-extrusion lines, the resulting sheets exhibit structural properties ideal for seismic-active zones such as Turkey's Marmara and North Anatolian fault lines, where light-weight glazing prevents structural overburden.
Polycarbonate in its raw form is susceptible to ultraviolet photo-degradation. Sunlight wavelengths between 290nm and 400nm break the polymer chains (scission process), leading to embrittlement, optical hazing, and severe yellowing. To overcome Turkey’s high solar irradiation levels—particularly in Mediterranean regions like Antalya, Adana, and Aegean provinces like Izmir—our panels feature a cap-layer co-extruded UV absorber layer measuring 50 to 100 microns thick.
Rather than relying on spray-on or dip-coated anti-UV treatments that erode within 2–3 years due to abrasive Anatolian dust storms and rainfall, our co-extrusion process fuses the UV absorber directly into the top molecular lattice of the sheet during molten phase forming. This ensures a guaranteed Yellowing Index change ($\Delta YI) < 2$ over a 10-year continuous exposure lifespan.

Engineered to meet specific regional environmental pressures, structural building regulations (TMMOB & AFAD), and architectural requirements across Turkish provinces.
The heavy industrial corridors of Dilovası, Gebze, and Bursa demand roofing and daylighting materials capable of withstanding corrosive chemical atmospheres, industrial sulfur emissions, and severe thermal cycles. Our Corrugated Greca & Multiwall Panels serve as ideal daylight strips integrated into trapezoidal metal roof decks.
Meeting the strict fire codes mandated by the Turkish Ministry of Environment, Urbanization and Climate Change, our sheets achieve B-s1, d0 fire rating—ensuring non-drip, self-extinguishing behavior that halts flame spread during industrial incidents.
Turkey is Europe's largest operator of geothermal-heated high-tech agricultural greenhouses. Traditional glass installed in wind-prone Aegean valleys breaks easily, leading to crop loss and soaring repair costs.
Our 8mm to 10mm Twin-Wall and Multiwall Polycarbonate sheets feature internal anti-fog/anti-condensation coatings. This micro-layer prevents large droplet formation, ensuring max PAR (Photosynthetically Active Radiation) light transmission while protecting crops from cold drop burns, yielding a thermal efficiency gain of up to 30% compared to PE film.
With the rapid expansion of Turkey’s high-speed rail (YHT) lines, metro networks, and the Northern Marmara Expressway, sound mitigation near residential zones in Istanbul and Ankara is critical.
Our 12mm to 15mm Solid Optical Acoustic Sheets deliver sound reduction indices exceeding $R_w = 34\text{ dB}$. Engineered to endure extreme dynamic wind pressure pulses created by passing trains traveling at 250 km/h, these panels are shatterproof, UV-stabilized, and resistant to road salt erosion.
Analyzing how Turkey’s regulatory shift toward sustainable architecture and seismic resilience is driving polycarbonate adoption over conventional glass.
Following recent structural updates in Turkish Seismic Building Codes, reducing dead loads in large-span public buildings—such as shopping complexes, sports arenas, and hospital link bridges—has become a top engineering mandate. Glass glazing systems add massive structural load ($25\text{ kg/m}^2$ for 10mm glass), requiring heavy steel sub-frames.
In contrast, polycarbonate sheets weigh 50% less than glass of equivalent thickness ($1.2\text{ kg/m}^2$ for 10mm multiwall), drastically reducing structural steel costs while offering virtual immunity to seismic shocks, ground vibrations, and overhead impact hazards.
With Turkey’s commitment to energy transition goals, urban mega-projects in Istanbul Financial Center (Ataşehir) and urban renewal zones (*Kentsel Dönüşüm*) prioritize low operational thermal loss.
Our 40mm Multi-Cell Standing Seam Interlocking Systems deliver exceptional thermal insulation with U-values as low as $0.95\text{ W/m}^2\text{K}$. Combined with SolarSmart™ IR heat blocking, these facades dramatically cut summer air-conditioning loads and winter heating overheads, directly earning credits for LEED, BREEAM, and Turkish BEP-TR energy efficiency ratings.
Combining global engineering rigor, custom fabrication, and streamlined export logistics directly to Turkey's primary ports.
By eliminating trading intermediaries, we provide Turkish buyers with direct factory-gate pricing, customizable sheet lengths (up to 11.8 meters for standard 40ft HQ container loading), and guaranteed batch-to-batch color consistency.
Our in-house fabrication floor features 5-axis CNC routing, thermoforming, laser cutting, and automatic ultrasonic edge-sealing machines to seal multiwall flutes, preventing dust and moisture ingress during shipping.
