Most likely all you'd need is twinwall panels. Most twinwall panels are described in 4mm, 6mm, and 8mm thicknesses and made of polycarbonate. Probably the most durable and lesser expensive Solexx, made of polyethylene, comes in 3.5mm and 5mm thicknesses.

The link below has the cheapest prices I could find. If you search a bit, you'll find a variance of approximately $5 on a 4x8 sheet.

If you're planning on building from scratch, you'll need to do a considerable amount of site planning and prep. You didn't say at what stage you're at, but lurking at this Forum will help!
