Polycarbonate sheet price in Kenya (2026 Price Guide) | BHD Kenya
What Are Polycarbonate Sheets?
Polycarbonate sheets are high-strength, lightweight, and weather-resistant panels used for roofing, skylights, greenhouses, and interior partitions.
In Kenya, they are ideal for areas with high UV exposure and coastal humidity, offering durability and clear or translucent finishes.
Polycarbonate sheets come in two main types: solid and hollow. Solid sheets offer superior impact resistance and clarity, while hollow sheets provide thermal insulation and cost savings. BHD Kenya supplies both types: Solid Polycarbonate Sheets and Egyptian Hollow Polycarbonate Sheets
Factors Affecting Polycarbonate Sheet Price in Kenya
The cost of polycarbonate sheets in Kenya depends on thickness, brand, type, and installation requirements.
Environmental factors like UV exposure and humidity also influence material selection and price.
Key pricing factors:
- Thickness: Common thicknesses range from 4mm to 16mm. Thicker sheets cost more but offer higher durability and insulation.
- Brand: High-quality brands like Lexan, Palram, and local BHD-stocked brands may command higher prices.
- Type: Solid sheets are more expensive than hollow sheets due to material density.
- Installation Costs: Labor, fixing materials, and supports can add 10–20% to the sheet cost.
