poly morphous

“Accessible and easy to obtain and can be used in a variety of ways,” is how Vetter describes Polygal 100 percent recyclable polycarbonate sheets. He used it on this wine storage building to let light—but not too much light—seep in while keeping weather out. The multi-walled sheets provide high thermal insulation, controlled daylight transmission, and UV protection. Polygal Plastics Industries, 800.537.0095; www.polygal.com.
