What is Acrylic?
Acrylic is a transparent thermoplastic often used as a lightweight, shatter-resistant alternative to glass. It offers exceptional clarity, UV resistance, and can be easily fabricated into custom shapes.
Types of Acrylic
Cast Acrylic Cast acrylic is manufactured by pouring liquid acrylic into molds. It offers superior optical clarity and is easier to machine and polish. This is the grade used by AcryliXpress for all our products.
Extruded Acrylic Extruded acrylic is produced by pushing acrylic through a die. While more affordable, it has slightly lower optical quality and is more prone to cracking during machining.
