Acrylic Sheets

Acrylic Sheets

Acrylic is a clear substance which resembles glass but is made from polymers of acrylates and acrylic acid. Clear acrylic sheets were first developed in 1930’s and started gaining popularity as versatile plastic sheeting material. These sheets are light-weight with excellent optical clarity and outdoor weather retention. These are seventeen times stronger, durable, 100% recyclable with minimal breakage. Acrylic substances are flexible in nature; therefore, one doesn’t need any special tool to mold it, instead, it can be easily fabricated, bent and glued.
