ACRYLIC SHEETS

Acrylic offers high light transmission and can be easily formed without loss of optical clarity. Exposure to moisture or total immersion in water does not significantly affect the mechanical or optical properties. Our acrylic is UV stabilized to withstand weathering and to resist prolonged exposure to sunlight.

Acrylic can be fabricated, laser cut, saw cut, drilled, engraved, finished and diamond polished with our state-of-the art technology. It has many applications suitable for domestic, industrial, commercial and retail purposes.

Acrylic is available in clear sheets from 1.5mm to 50mm thicknesses.

Colours, frosts, tints and light diffusers come in limited thicknesses, with the most variety of colours in the 3mm range. Limited colours are available however in the 4.5mm and 6mm thickness range.
