Lexan Has Many Advantages

Lexan is the brand name of the polycarbonate resin thermoplastic first developed in the 1960s. While Lexan has many of the same qualities as glass, it is stronger, more durable and more flexible than glass or plexiglass. Not only is it more shatter resistant than glass or plexiglass, it is also resistant to heat and fire.

Because of these amazing qualities, Lexan is primarily used in situations where safety and security concerns outweigh aesthetic ones. Astronaut and sports helmets, high performance windshields, aircraft canopies, storm windows as well as bullet proof "glass" are just a few of the products that use Lexan in their construction.
