Clearboarding Solutions Virtually unbreakable, clear polycarbonate solutions – also known as clearboarding -- are replacing plywood for covering windows and entrances in thousands of communities across the country. The many disadvantages of plywood begin with the obvious signal it sends that a property is vacant, spurring increased vandalism and vagrancy, lowering property values, and contributing to community blight.

Strong and clear polycarbonate appears from the street like a normal window, delivering: • •

Much higher curb appeal Reduced appearance of “blight,” stabilizing values of the surrounding neighborhood Incredible toughness and durability for greater security A long-term solution that stands up to the elements, without weathering and disintegration Reduced expense over time vs. plywood, which requires periodic replacement
