Overview
Plastic materials are widely used for windbreak systems because they provide transparency, impact resistance, and corrosion resistance, while remaining lighter than glass or metal alternatives. Transparent panels allow natural light and visibility while reducing wind exposure.
Plastic windbreaks are commonly used in:
- Outdoor restaurant and café seating areas
- Rooftop terraces and hospitality spaces
- Outdoor retail environments
- Industrial walkways and workstations
- Warehouse loading areas
- Public viewing platforms and outdoor facilities
Because installation environments vary in size and structure, windbreak panels are typically custom manufactured to match the dimensions and mounting systems of the installation site.

Custom Manufactured to Your Drawings
Windbreak panels are generally produced according to specific dimensions and structural layouts defined by the installation environment.
We manufacture windbreak panels from:
- CAD drawings or structural layout plans
- Customer sketches or dimensional specifications
- Reference samples of existing panels
- Prototype panels for new outdoor installations
- Repeat production runs for commercial sites
All panels are fabricated in-house using precision machining and cutting processes. Mounting holes, cut-outs, and panel shapes are produced according to the supplied drawings.
Because windbreak installations often integrate with frames, railings, or support structures, most panels are drawing-led custom fabrications rather than standard products.

Typical Applications
Plastic windbreak panels are used in a range of outdoor and semi-outdoor environments, including:
- Restaurant and café outdoor seating windbreaks
- Rooftop terrace wind protection panels
- Balcony and railing wind barriers
- Outdoor retail queue barriers
- Industrial walkway wind shields
- Warehouse loading dock wind protection panels
- Public viewing area windbreaks
- Outdoor work area protection screens
These installations help improve comfort, safety, and environmental control in exposed spaces.
Recommended Materials for Plastic Windbreaks
ABS Sheet
Perfect for producing complex interior panels, seat backs, dash components, and protective trims. It delivers a durable, hard-wearing finish that stands up to daily passenger use while remaining lightweight and cost-effective to manufacture in volume.
Polycarbonate is a high-impact, virtually unbreakable material perfect for bus windows and safety barriers , providing excellent clarity, strength, and long-term durability.
Acrylic is a clear, rigid material ideal for bus barriers and interior panels, offering excellent optical clarity, a smooth professional finish, and good weather resistance for long-term use.
PVC is a durable, lightweight material suited to internal bus panels, offering good impact resistance, moisture resistance, and easy fabrication for clean, low-maintenance interiors.
