OVERVIEW of Tuffak® VR (Makrolon® VR) Marine Sheet |
Tuffak® VR (formerly Makrolon® VR) flexible polycarbonate sheet - Durable, High Optical Clarity alternative to vinyl in marine enclosures.
Tuffak® VR (Makrolon® VR) marine grade polycarbonate products provide a glass-like, wrinkle-free appearance. Combining clarity with durability, Tuffak® polycarbonate sheet provides a clear, unobstructed view on the water. These low-distortion, high- impact-resistant products can be sewn using commercially available, heavy duty sewing machines or adhesive bonded. They withstand the harshest environments, including salt and sun exposure, while providing a stunning view for years to come.
"Covestro developed a revolutionary glazing material based on the needs of the industry. We believe when Covestro asked what was needed, they listened and developed a great polycarbonate product," said Mark Mitchell, boat owner. "The specified material checks all the boxes for boat owners: maximum optics and low distortion. These materials have really redefined the view from the captain's chair."
Tuffak® VR & Makrolon® VR are trade names of Plaskolite, Inc.
In August 2018, Plaskolite purchased the Makrolon polycarbonate sheet business from Covestro & re-branded the material under the Tuffak® brand name.
