A PC (Polycarbonate) Bubble House is a spherical or semi-spherical structure made of high-strength, highly transparent polycarbonate panels. Compared to traditional inflatable bubble houses, PC bubble houses offer superior durability, thermal insulation, and safety, making them suitable for long-term residential or commercial use.
High Impact Resistance: Polycarbonate is 200 times stronger than glass and 30 times stronger than acrylic, capable of withstanding hail, strong winds (even typhoon-level gusts), and minor impacts.
UV Protection: High-quality PC panels come with UV coatings, preventing yellowing and brittleness over time, with a lifespan of 10–20 years.
Weather Resistance: Can endure extreme temperatures from -40°C to 120°C, making it suitable for harsh environments like alpine, desert, or coastal regions.
Low Thermal Conductivity: The multi-wall (hollow) structure of PC panels provides excellent insulation, reducing energy consumption by over 40% compared to glass.
Smart Climate Control: Some PC bubble houses can integrate solar heating or underfloor heating for eco-friendly temperature regulation.
Up to 90% light transmission (similar to glass), with optional privacy frosting for adjustable lighting.
Futuristic, sleek design that enhances commercial appeal, ideal for high-end resorts, tech exhibitions, or eco-restaurants.
Fire-resistant (B1-rated), safer than inflatable bubble tents.
Shatterproof: Even if damaged, it won’t break into sharp shards like glass, reducing injury risks.
Lightweight structure, easier to transport and assemble than glass buildings, suitable for rugged terrains (mountains, forests, etc.).
Customizable sizes (3m–15m+ diameter), adaptable for various uses (homes, greenhouses, restaurants, etc.).
Corrosion-resistant, scratch-resistant, and easy to clean (just rinse with water).
No need for constant reinflation (unlike inflatable bubbles), reducing long-term upkeep.
Luxury eco-resorts & stargazing hotels (more comfortable than tents, safer than glass).
Botanical greenhouses & eco-restaurants (optimal light diffusion and insulation).
Exhibition halls, observatories, pop-up venues (quick setup, high visual appeal).
