PolyReed Reed-filled Polycarbonate Sheet Product Manual

1. Product Introduction

Sunlight filters through the gaps between the reed stalks, casting dappled light spots on the ground like a flowing tapestry. The combination of natural reed materials and modern polycarbonate hollow sheets preserves natural vitality while delivering neat industrial-style aesthetics.
The inherent curved form of reeds creates undulating three-dimensional layering for partitions. When a breeze blows, the soft rustling of rubbing reed stalks infuses spaces with a quiet rustic charm.
This product perfectly integrates lightweight, weather-resistant performance of polycarbonate panels and the eco-texture of reeds, forming a new decorative panel that balances practicality, visual beauty and environmental friendliness.

2. Core Material & Production Process

2.1 Polycarbonate Substrate

• • Raw material: Self-manufactured hollow polycarbonate sheet, adopting PC raw materials from Covestro and Sabic brands
• • Surface function: Co-extruded high-concentration UV-resistant coating, outstanding outdoor weather resistance

2.2 Reed Filler Treatment

Reed stalks undergo complete peeling, cleaning and fumigation procedures inside panel cavities to prevent mildew, rot and insect damage.

3. Main Application Scenarios

3.1 Outdoor Canopy & Sunshade

PolyReed canopy panels combine polycarbonate toughness and breathable reed texture. They soften harsh direct sunlight while maintaining even soft natural light inside the space.
Suitable for courtyard pavilions, terrace sunshades, poolside pergolas and building eaves. Matched with wooden frames, it harmonizes with bamboo forests, wild grass landscapes and modern architectural facades.
Compared with pure natural reed awnings, it requires minimal complex maintenance while retaining warm organic texture, balancing outdoor durability and natural atmosphere.

3.2 Indoor Partition & Decorative Screen

The translucent polycarbonate base ensures basic privacy, turning the panel into permeable decorative art partitions.
Ideal for tea room dividers, restaurant space segmentation and indoor background screens:

1. 1. Natural reed texture neutralizes the cold rigid sense of polycarbonate sheets
2. 2. Translucent PC material solves the full shielding shortcoming of solid reed screens
   At dusk, warm light penetrates reed stalks to form continuous golden light streaks, producing dynamic changing light and shadow effects on wall surfaces.

5. Installation, Storage & Operation Specifications

5.1 Storage Requirements

Store in cool, dry indoor environment.
Forbid direct sunlight exposure, rain soaking, and direct stacking on bare concrete floors.

5.2 Sealant Selection Rules

Only neutral silicone sealant can be used.
Acidic or alkaline glass glue is prohibited; product damage caused by improper glue use is not covered under warranty.

5.3 Cutting & Edge Sealing

1. 1. Cutting tool: Portable electric saw
2. 2. Post-cutting treatment: Fully clear sawdust inside hollow cavities of sheets
3. 3. Edge sealing: Seal both ends of hollow panels with original PC edge strips or aluminum foil tape

5.4 Service Environment Limits

The product is sensitive to acid and alkali substances:

• • Avoid direct contact with concrete, brick walls during installation
• • Cannot be applied in spaces with acid/alkali liquids or volatile corrosive gas

5.5 Fixation & Installation Standards

1. 1. Splicing accessories: Special aluminum alloy profiles or PC plastic profiles
2. 2. Short panel fixation (Length ≤ 2m): Self-tapping screws with dedicated waterproof gaskets are allowed
3. 3. Outdoor long panel rule (Length ＞ 2m):
   • • No drilling holes on panel surfaces to prevent thermal expansion & contraction deformation
   • • Custom single panel width limited to 0.7m, fully fixed via profile splicing framework

7. Design Creative Origin

This design originated from a 2018 DIY creative concept: injecting soft natural texture into rigid industrial building materials.
Design logic:

1. 1. Hollow cavities of polycarbonate sheets act as “storage containers” for natural reed stalks
2. 2. Pre-fumigated reeds eliminate separate anti-mildew maintenance work for natural materials
3. 3. Resolve the partition material paradox: realize translucency, visual privacy and warm non-cold decorative effect at the same time
   Light passing through reed fibers forms soft scattered light spots, and dense reed stalks blur sight lines. The two materials complement each other to offset respective disadvantages of single material.
