Acrylic Cut To Size

Trade names: Perspex®, Plexiglass.

"Perspex®" or otherwise known as "Acrylic" is well known for its crystal clarity, impact resistance and excellent weather ability.

Acrylics have been used extensively for many applications since the material was first invented in 1927 by Rohn & Haas A. G.

One of its first major uses was in air craft canopies, due to its formability, clarity, weather resistance & high impact resistance in comparison to glass. Many other applications have been created for this versatile product such as Signage, Point of Sale Displays, Food Dispensers, Safety windows and all manner of fabricated products due to the ease of machining and gluing of the material.
