Detailed description:
Light transmission
050 acrylic cast sheet has a light transmission of 37%. The opal acrylic diffracts and diffuses light evenly making it the perfect choice for illuminated signage.
Hard wearing
Cast acrylic is one of the hardest thermoplastic sheet materials available and its attractive aesthetics remain for longer than other plastic sheet materials.
Light weight
Opal cast acrylic weighs half as much as an equivalent glass panel making fabrication, installation and transportation a far more attractive proposition.
High gloss finish and easy to clean
Its high gloss finish is not only very attractive but also more practically very easy to clean.
Weather resistant
With excellent resistance to the elements, cast acrylic performs well outside. No significant changes in appearance are expected over 10 years.
Manufacturing process
Cast acrylic is manufactured by pouring monomer between two sheets of high quality glass and polymerised in batches in a carefully controlled manufacturing process.
Recyclable
Opal cast acrylic can be recycled all the way back to its original raw material, the monomer.
