What are PC foils unique makes
PC film is more than just a transparent plastic sheet. Depending on the design, thermal resistance, flame retardancy, UV stability, surface quality and color can be specifically tailored to the application. The interplay of these factors is crucial. Material, foil construction, surface and processing.
Heat resistance
PC films are suitable for applications where elevated temperatures occur. Depending on the type, they achieve heat-form stability up to 125 °C and retain their shape and function even under thermal stress.
Flame retardant
When fire protection and design must come together, flame-resistant PC films offer a suitable material base. The fire performance is specifically considered through the selection of materials – adapted to the component, the application environment, and the respective requirements.
UV resistance
UV-stabilized PC films are interesting for applications where light and weather influences play a role. The appropriate formulation helps to maintain transparency, color, and surface quality as long as possible.
Scratch-resistant surfacee
Visible film surfaces must withstand a lot in everyday use. Scratch-resistant PC films protect the surface from mechanical stress and help ensure that components remain of high quality for longer.
Transparency and colors
PC film can be made transparent, translucent or colored. This allows for the combination of visibility, light transmission and color design. This also leaves room for clear, high-quality design in functional components.
Thermoformability
Thermoforming allows PC film to be shaped into three-dimensional geometries. The flat film is then used to create precise covers, cladding or protective components. The shaping is adapted to the material, geometry and desired surface finish.
Which PC film Does it suit you?
Not every PC film is the best choice for every application. We consider the component and its function and together find the design that suits your requirements.
Flame-resistant PC film
Where a defined fire behavior is required, flame-resistant PC film can provide the appropriate material base.
- Flame protection for demanding applications
- compatible with transparent or colored versions
- suitable for thermoformed protective and cladding elements
- Material selection tailored to component and application area
UV-stabilized PC film
Stabilized variants are available for applications with increased light or UV exposure.
- Better suitability for light and weather-stressed applications
- Support for color and surface durability
- Available transparent or colored
- Available on request in combination with a scratch-resistant surface
Scratch-resistant PC film
If the surface is to remain permanently visible and resistant, scratch-resistant PC film offers additional security in everyday use.
- reduced sensitivity to mechanical stress
- high-quality optics throughout the lifespan
- suitable for visible covers and protective surfaces
- compatible with transparency, color, UV resistance and flame retardancy
Special solutions
When standard films are not enough, we think further. Together, we develop solutions that are tailored exactly to your requirements – from the material selection to the mass-production process.
- Combination of various properties such as flame retardancy, UV stability and scratch resistance
- Transparent, translucent or colored versions
- Roll-form, cut-to-size or thermoformed solution
- Consulting on film construction, surface finish and processing
- Solutions based on suitable secondary raw materials, if technically feasible
Where PC films their strengths play out
Protection and cover components
Transparent or colored covers, cladding and protective components benefit from the combination of formability, surface finish and technical durability.
View windows and design areas
Where functionality is intended to remain visible, transparent PC film creates a clear connection between protection, visibility, and high-quality design.
Equipment and system technology
Thermoformable PC films are suitable for components that require a precise fit, a durable surface, and defined material properties.
Applications with elevated temperatures
When subjected to thermal stress, PC film offers heat-form stability up to 125 °C depending on the selected type, thus providing a suitable basis for demanding components.
Why Filzwieser for PC films and thermoformed solutions?
PC film does not work solely due to the material. It is only the Interaction of film design, surface, tool, thermoforming process and subsequent use transforms a sheet of film into a reliably functioning component.
We support you from the initial idea to the serial production. In the process, we work together to determine whether roll material, cut-to-size or a thermoformed solution is best suited for your application. The combination of transparency, color, flame retardance, UV resistance and scratch resistance is also considered from the very beginning.
What we are distinguishes
- Advice on the appropriate PC film design
- Experience with transparent, colored and functionally equipped films
- Support for thermoforming, cutting and assembly
- Consideration of material, component and overall system
- Solutions from the initial idea to serial production
- Short distances – direct with the expert, without unnecessary sales delays
Especially with technical films, quality is all about the details. That is why we ask the right questions before production begins: What temperature affects the component? Does the surface need to be scratch-resistant? What transparency or color is required? Is flame retardancy or UV stability crucial? And what shape should the film take in the end?

Frequently asked questions
What is PC film?
PC film is a technical film made of polycarbonate. It can be made transparent, translucent or colored and can be combined with properties such as flame retardancy, UV stability and scratch resistance depending on the type.
Can PC film be pulled tight?
Yes, suitable PC films can be shaped into three-dimensional forms by heating them. Which film type and which process parameters are suitable depend on geometry, wall thickness, surface and the desired component function.
Is PC film available in transparent and colored colors?
PC film is available in transparent, translucent and colored versions. This allows the film to be used for both visible protective and covering components as well as for design-oriented components.
How temperature-resistant is PC film?
Depending on the design, PC film achieves a Heat resistance up to 125 °C. In addition to temperature, the duration of the load, the component geometry and the mechanical stress are also crucial factors in the specific selection.
Are there scratch-resistant and UV-stabilized PC films available?
Yes, scratch-resistant and UV-stabilized variants are available depending on the requirement. Both properties can be important for visible components where surface finish, color and transparency are intended to remain consistent over the lifetime of the product.
When is flame-resistant PC film useful?
Flame-resistant PC film is then interesting when the Fire behavior of the material It represents an important requirement for the component. Which design is suitable depends on the application, the installation space, and the required testing and normative requirements.
